Was the water clarity pretty decent been thinking about hitting the Lexington or where u fished along there only further down coming down today and planning on fishing tomorrow
Admire your patience in getting them out of the rocks! I remember catching many of the at the SPI jetties on the channel side many years ago. We used a float to keep us out of the rocks since many of these mangroves like to hold up there.
@@christophervela5447 That's where the rats are, that's where the snakes are. Stay outta the dunes too. There's three different species of rattlesnakes in the padre dunes.
Hey! Christopher Vela told me about this video of you catching mangrove snapper and we went there yesterday and today we caught our PBs mangrove snapper! Thanks man! #TheGirlInYellowRainCoat
@Eric_Castillo_Fishing ey we freakin did awesome man I caught about a 16incher 😂❤😮 So freaking fun Thank you so much Without this content, we would've never tried this spot. It made our trip worth it. Day 1 we went to the beach and dropped bait with the drone .....I almost caught my pb grass fish 😅. About 100lb one. Day 2 well yep
Ive been enjoying the videos alot! Im down here for work for a few months and appreciate the help to get setup. Are all these areas active now (December) as they are in summer?
Cool video. I'm curious why if you're using 30 lb line you would need a 30 lb leader. Wouldn't it work just as well to tie the hook directly on your main line, or does the leader serve some purpose?
Anytime fishing the jetty you want to use mono or Fluoro leader bc of the rocks. Braided line cuts instantly when a fish gets you into the rocks, the leader is much more flexible and as you saw in the vid allowed me to free several fish that had me stuck.
@Eric_Castillo_Fishing also adding the narrative of it's a good place to bring a gf or family...more families could benefit from fishing together man 👍
Thanks for the nice video! I had no idea they were even in our bay. For what it is worth, please dispatch or bleed your fish right away. Letting them suffocate is not good for the meat or the fish. Secondly, please only keep 10 inches or longer and only take what you can eat right away. Frozen snapper is just not worth it. Just my two cents. Please keep making videos, I really enjoy local spots.
question from a rookie fisherman: If I drive down to corpus from San Antonio what species of fish are worth keeping on ice for the trip back and to be put in the freezer?
Great video bro! Love the view🔥🔥
Was such a nice morning bro! Nobody else around either 🔥
Nice vid..didn't know they had them downtown lol...now I know where to go..ty for the nice vid badass

Nothing like a good day of fishing 🎣. 💪💯👍🙏
Yes sir!

Stripes cup 😂
Where at
On the rockwall behind the T head
Was out there yesterday morning and they were hitting left and right. Good fishing fellas 🤙🏽🤙🏽
Glad you got on some! Thanks for watching 🙌
Nice fishing man! Looks like ima start using finger mullet for Mangroves!!🔥🔥💪
Finger mullet is the way to go 🔥

Can you tell me the address?
Bayfront jetty
Hi I’m sorry where exactly is it at trying to go there
Watch for those rattle snakes when fishing out there! There are some big ones!
Dang! Thanks for the heads up
Never seen rattle snakes out on jetties

Best spot for Mangroves ive found is the back of Janes L Head facing those rocks. Ive caught several 13 plus inches.
Solid ones! My gf caught a 15 the other morning same spot 🔥
How deep is the water on the bay side of the sea wall? Nice video.
Not sure exactly how deep I was letting my lure sink 5-6 seconds before working it in the trout video I made out there

Nice. I'll have to go down there and check it out
Used to catch some huge gafftop there back in the day
Use a small bait net to help keep the shrimp alive longer
Too small!
Thanks!
Another great video brother!
Appreciate ya🤙
Finger mullet and small perch best mangrove bait! Also when sun high use cut mullet
Agreed!
I love these mangroves videos, great job. I got that same reel, light and fast action , works good around.
Great reel thanks for watching!

@@Eric_Castillo_Fishing thank you so much for the explanation. I had no idea that braided would get easily cut in the rocks!
Great action man!
grill the whole fish
🔥🔥🔥
PISCIFUN 🎉🎉

I should’ve bled them, definitely will next time! We ate all of em right away, made great fish tacos 🔥 next video is another great local spot!

I’d say 12” minimum. A 10” mangrove barely has any meat
