Wind Ruined Our Plan, But Still Found FISH! Jacksonville Fishing
Вставка
- Опубліковано 18 тра 2023
- Hopped on my buddy Kevin's skiff for a mid/late afternoon creek session. Our plan was to target trout using topwater lures. But as soon as we got to the boat ramp, we were unpleasantly surprised by the 13mph+ winds straight out of the east. We headed out anyways with the new plan to throw other lures with the hopes that the winds would lay down later in the day, to allow us to still throw topwater. That never happened. Regardless, we had a great time, caught some decent fish, and had great conversation with a good friend. Doesn't get any better. Hope you enjoy the video. Thanks for watching!

Nice! Yea the winds have definitely been relentless lately.
Thank you! These winds make it almost impossible to throw topwater😩
Everybody would want a decent or nice weather but any fisherman fished through most of any weather. I had fun watching so i can only imagine the fun you guys had.
Yeap, 100% correct! We can only go when we have time, no matter the weather. Def was a fun trip! Thanks for watching!🤙
Nice work fishing in some windy conditions!!! Kevin is a great guy and it was awesome seeing you guys get on some fish!!!
Really appreciate it!🤙 Are you one of Kevin’s friends?
@@VISUAL-LY we have worked together on roadway projects.
@@904outdoors9 that’s great! Thanks for visiting the channel!
Really enjoy the videos. My favorite fishing show bro!
Appreciate that so much!👊🙏🤙
Whenever we fish together it’s always windy AF. 😂 the saltwater blesses you as always! Nice b roll!
I know right?! Every damn time bro!😩😂🤦♂️ Lets try again soon, check the weather first though lol
Wind sounded brutal but some times you just gotta make it happen 😅
Way to get on a few
Man, so windy lately. Hope it lays down soon. Really wanna have an entire topwater video😅
@@VISUAL-LY I’ve thrown more top water this year than I ever have on the west coast. Starting to become one of my favorite ways to fish
@@joeyfitzpatrickfishing oh yeah, 100%. Nothing like seeing that topwater get blown up on! Especially a big blow up!🔥🔥
Y’all should take advantage of that boat. You will do a lot better with quality reds fishing smaller water (especially on high water) in a boat that size. Tight lines!
Thanks for the advice!
The flounders you got over there are scary! looks like they could bite a finger off, nice video bro
They are a bit scary lol. Crazy teeth on those guys. Can do major damage to the hands! Your flat fish don't have teeth like that?
@@VISUAL-LY nah bro, they have really small teeths here
@@Fishingletsgo i think the ones Matts catches has even bigger teeth😳
@@VISUAL-LY :O hell noo
Nice fishing I'm still trying to get onsum fish like you
Thanks man! Just tie on jighead, put on a gulp, and hold on! Lol
@@VISUAL-LY I think I always buy either a jig head to big for the gulp p
Or vice versa or I just really suck at putting any soft plastic on the jig XD
@@jrwashere9314 buy eyestrike 3/16oz trouteye jigheads. That’s usually good for all conditions. Then get a pack of gulp swimming mullets. Place the gulp next to the jighead and align them. Make a note of where the hook would exit the bait so once you a actually start putting it on the hook, you know where the hook comes out. Should work out perfectly🙌
@@VISUAL-LY thank u soo much I appreciate all the knowledge u give me with ur videos and even now !!!!
Thank me if it helps lol
Alright, I'm back home. I have plan this fishing trip!
Lol ok. My propel drive is being worked on so as soon as I get that back, can plan something🙌
@VISUAL-LY Okay sounds good, hit me up!
Sorry, almost forgot! My kayak is back up and running now. So if you still wanna hit the creeks let know!🤙
@@VISUAL-LY I would have loved to, I'm back at work in San Diego.
@@Bsalty1975 oh what, I thought you moved back. Didn’t know was just a trip to visit. Sorry! And terrible timing with my propel drive having to get repaired😓
Beats any day at work😅
Yessir!💯💯
Lets go kayaking some time
I’m down. Usually fish Mondays, sometimes Sundays. Since days are longer, can go weekdays after work too
Nice flounder! What type of boat is that?
Thank you! That’s a skiff made by SaltMarsh called the Savanna
Where on new berlin is that ramp? I have a skiff also and try to find easy boat ramps to launch at. Thanks!
IS this cedar point?
Yeap! Cedar point boat ramp🙌
What boat ramp did y’all launch at?
That’s over there off Cedar Point rd.
Where is that boat ramp located?
It’s off New Berlin
Hey when launching from clapboard creek boat ramp is there a way to cross the main channel without getting in the way of a bunch of boats? I want to launch from the boat ramp and fish creek mouths on the other side of the channel.
Yeap, there’s a tiny little path for kayak launching on the right side of the main ramp. Once you’re in the water, immediately just start heading to the right and you’ll be behind the docks and boats, and won’t be in anyone’s way.
@@VISUAL-LY ok thank you!
Nice videos man, what’s your camera set up?
Thanks! Just running 2 GoPros. Extra shots with iPhone and DJI Spark for aerial shots🙌
Do you have to fool with the rudder cord often on your native? Mine seems to loosen up ever other trip.
Do you mean the steering cable?
Yes. Have a titan 10 5 and didn't know if this was a common thing
Mine is not a cable though. It's like a heavy duty cord rope
@@john85allen hmmm, ok. Def not normal. But sounds like maybe you have the Berley Pro steering upgrade. You might have to open up the steering handle to see what’s going on. I redid the entire steering setup for my kayak following a guys UA-cam video. Been working like a charm ever since. My original cables snapped on me.
What lbs line do you use on your Stradic? Great video by the way!
Thank you! I’m using 12lb braid on this one🙌
Also is there a specific time of year you want to throw the 4” swimming mullet or does it not really matter?
@@zaccutshaw2714 that bait works all year round
Ok thank you!
Hi visually, I recently got my kayak and have have been fishing in similar or thee same areas you have been fishing I use berkly gulp 4 inch swimming mullet and I twitch twitch pause it. I fish around creek mouth and oyster bars but I never get anything I see you getting fish after fish with the seemingly same technique. I fish at different tides and I fish in new spots. Do you have any suggestions? Could I use live bait and catch more? Sorry to pester you I’m just trying to figure this out.
Lol no fish at all? Are you using a jighead? If so, how heavy?
I’m usually using 1/4 an sometimes 1/8.
3/8*
Hmmmm, exactly the 2 weights I use. Maybe you’re fishing those areas wrong, based on the tidal movement. The first thing is, you have to make sure there is some sort of current, if no water movement then usually not much action. And different areas have to be fished differently at different tide stages. Like creeks mouths are better on outgoing tide. Keep your distance and cast all sides of the creek mouth, let the lure flow naturally like bait getting flushed out with the current. There’s lots of different factors and not all areas will be same. The best thing is, just keep trying until you final find a pattern.
But as far as using live bait, yes it’ll work better if the fish are there, and if it’s what they’re currently feeding on or at least used to seeing. Mud minnows and live shrimp will usually get the job done in most places in our area. Also, If you ever wanna join me on a trip, maybe we can set something up too.
Ok great I’ll let you know! Thank you for all the tips!
