  • I had a short trip to Orlando, Florida recently for work. I wasn't really planning to fish, but my buddy asked me to bring some gear, so I grabbed my travel rod and some tackle. Sure enough, we ended up having some time to fish, so I am glad I brought it! Thanks to ‪@DaveWhiteoutdoors‬ for showing me around while we did some pond-hopping!

    If you're in florida again, a great way to tell if there is any gators in any body of water, is to stick your fingers briefly into the water. If your fingers are wet, there's gators. Hope this helps!

      Really ? I'm here on summer vacation and feel like the fishing is pretty hard (maybe because it's hot ?) And gfs family who were visiting say fishing in NJ was much better lol. So my real life experience and what I hear on the internet is a little contradictory

    There is only one wild animal that I feed. Frank the blue heron that lives at one of my favorite spots will sometimes get a bluegill from me. He keeps his distance but I see him watching me. If I hold a fish up over my head he will fly over. Bad, I know but he's my buddy.

    It's pretty cool to see your fishing oportunities in different states. The new "work trip" series. Too bad you didn't get a chance to fish for and catch a Mayan Cichlid, an Oscar, a Peacock Bass, or get chance to fish for a Clown Knife. Different parts of Florida to catch some of those for sure. Fun little video. I'm glad get the opportunity to do that when you travel for work. Most people do not. Thanks for taking us along!

    If you’re back on the coast, think about giving saltwater fishing a shot. Maybe hit up a fishing pier or do some surf fishing. Not sure what background you have with it, but it might be a good time, especially if it’s new.

    Just getting into fishing and starting with an ultralight setup for panfish and trout! In fact I just bought your panfish kit from mule fishing. I keep getting skunked! Could you do a video on common mistakes in ultralight fishing and how to get to the fish!

    • @alecbh13
      @alecbh13 24 дні тому +1

      Keep an eye out for any sort of structure/cover in the water. Reed bundles, logs, anything they can hide in or near. Trim a Donkeytail Jr down and use a 1/64 jig, and roll it as slow as you can, you'll catch some tiny bluegill and that'll give you a feel for where they're at. They frequently hit on a short pause. Temperature and time of day controls their depth - fish are ectotherms/"cold blooded", so if it's hot, they're deeper, when it cools/darkens, they come up shallower.

    Florida is my favorite state to fish in. When I get bored of not getting bites, I'll use my glass 2wt fly rod on the grass patches in the bay flats. The most reliable bite and a good fight on ultralight.
    Also if you really want some orange in your gills, come to GA.
