    It was also my guess that it was a jack the way he was changing direction so fast. That fish puts up hell of a fight. Strange you didn't get any bite at those pilings under the bridge. Usually there are snappers and sheepsheads. The epilogue was as bonus of the episode as you said. Nice weather and a lot of bites. Happy holidays season.

    I caught a barracuda in Mexico and the hotel restaurant cooked it for us and it was really good. They said if it was bigger it would not have been safe to eat. It was about a 10 pounder. They coated it in some kind of red chili powder. Really delicious.

  • @mmiadragonz
    @mmiadragonz Рік тому +1

    I'm a local in Miami and the keys. Lots of fish zig zag in between the 2 bridges. All types of cool tropicals. The northern part of the 7 mile you cannot fish from. So fishing there is very good

  • @Striperbass2
    @Striperbass2 Рік тому +1

    Love Florida...they are fisherman friendly, especially compared to some of the states further north. Regarding the foul hooked jack by the tail...that was strange. Maybe tried to tail slap the bait? I know stripers do it, but on surface lures. Also, on a trip to Cabo my son and i went out on a charter, inshore ( i hate trolling, not interested in bill fish--I like to eat fish). We gotta into quite a school of sierra macs (west coast spanish macs). On whatever metal we used, single hook, many were hooked outside/ behind the mouth. I imagine they're chasing, then turn on the lure, and the lure's pulled across the mouth and the hook catches outside. I dunno, but it happened a lot. Oh, wire leaders for sure. Anyway, thanks for another great vid👍....saltwater, especially down south, never know whats on the end of the line.🙂.

    Those kroc spoons seem to catch just about everything! Have you ever tried using an assist hook instead of the treble? Thinking it might reduce odds of fouling.

      Thanks - I prefer the head cam but it seems like a lot of viewers prefer the chest.

    • @johnhamilton9991
      @johnhamilton9991 Рік тому

      @@EliasVFishing That’s weird because a vicarious experience, such as a fishing video is best viewed as through the eyes of the fisherman. A head cam does this much better than a chest cam. Also, it shows an unobstructed view of what’s going on in the water and the more acute angle diminishes glare and increases depth of view into the water. You must be aware of these factors during the edit. Thanks again for sharing your fishing expertise and the hard work you put into your channel.
