    Son, it is nice to see you enjoying time with your mother. Seems like she is a special lady, you treated her like a queen. My mother passed away suddenly many years ago, it stirs my heart to see how special you treat your mom. My mother fished with a 404 zebco, she caught a 8 lb sheepshead on 10 pound test, we had to climb on rocks and my brother and I climbed down the rocks and he got it. It just made 8 pounds. It was the biggest sheepshead I every seen. I know you do already, but from one man to another, cherish her as much as h

    Wow! I’m really glad You took the chance with the GO-PRO! As quickly as my line gets cut in Galveston, I imagined a lot of rocks and barnacles as well as bigger “toothy” fish were down there biting through my line. It was really interesting that there wasn’t much going on. Thank You!

    Nice video. As a fisherman here in New England I put a plastic bead on my line in front of the slide sinker so when he slides down to your knot it doesn’t slam into it causing some abrasions and losing the integrity of the knot. I also would throw some chum in the water to bring the fish around. We use invasive Asian crabs that we find under rocks along the shoreline as bait and chum also. Keep a tight line and thanks for the video.

    I heard you tell your mom to set the hook. When using circle hooks never set the hook. The hook set will pull the hook out of the fishes mouth.
    A circle hook simply requires you to start reeling in as you fish swims away. The hook is designed to catch it the fishes jaw. This prevents gut hooking undersized or undesirable fish.

    Really liked the “fish-eye view” we got from the GoPro. Cool to see the crustaceans on the pilings and the octopus. Even the sea floor is amazing. Next time, maybe we’ll view some fish! Keep doing what you do. We really enjoy the pier fishing, and the added underwater footage was great!

    I always enjoy your content and your Mom out-fishing you! She’s an asset to your vids! By all means drop a GoPro down when you can. It is a whole positive addition to the quality of your content. I built a submersible GoPro mount out of some 3/4 Inch pvc and lead sinkers inserted inside it near the bottom of the rig.I attached a bicycle handlebar GoPro mount to the rig and use a hand line or something far more substantial than fishing line. Let ‘er down and see what the cam catches. You can grab a good used GoPro 3 or 4 off of eBay for very little and not risk your 8. Keep up the good vids!

    Enjoyed seeing what's down there. I'd like to see more underwater video at different times of the year. Something I noticed in this video on your cart. Looks like you were either using a different cart or you had swapped out the wheels from the orange balloon tires to the more solid black tires on the yellow wheels. Do you always do that when you switch from fishing on the sand to fishing on the pier ?

    • @BamaSaltwater
      @BamaSaltwater  2 роки тому

      I actually purchased another cart used second hand for a really good deal with the rubber tires so I don't have to switch between the two! The regular tires can hold more ice and weight (including me sitting on it haha) on solid surfaces such as the pier versus the balloon tires for the sand. . Thank you.

I also noticed you had your camera clipped on to the rail of the pier, I would hate to see that thing get bumped off or slip off and disappear so you may consider a bungee cord or carabiner to attach it just in case :-)
