    Actually, Brant... that was one of my favorite videos, BECAUSE of the "unpolished" look, even after the edit. I found the audio just as good as a mic and recorder, mainly because there wasn't as much wind noise. I know... I've complained about that before, but it IS nice NOT hearing the wind as much, or at a different freq. level. Filming from the GoPro only in POV, almost gave more of a sense of actually BEING there, compared to always seeing tri-poded views. I have ZERO complaints about that video. I know "wade fishing" is a pain to you fishing creators, but it's good medicine for not-so-good days. Thanks! Peace.

      They should have a MINIMUM of one ranger driving one of those garbage collecting rigs over those asphalt fields. After 24-years...the white sand in those areas is gray...I kid you not! The more that asphalt breaks up, the more it discolors the sand.

Personally, I appreciate that quality in an individual. I enjoyed the fishing and the catching. THAT looked like a lot of fun. Especially since I knew exactly where you were and I live in Arkansas!!!! Thanks for a great video..

    Good thing the Ranger came along when he did. You were obviously presenting a clear and present danger to not only yourself and others. But the entire ecosystem as well. You could have easily misjudged a cast and splashed water onto the decking of that abandoned pier. That could take 2-3 minutes to dry! Think of all the damage your were doing!

    This looks like fun fishing. I have used a lightweight conventional outfit (7' Fenwick rod and Shimano reel with 10# test line) for live baiting anchovies on the West coast. And I went up to a bit heavier (8' rod, Shimano reel and 15 or 20# line) tackle for live baiting anchovies when fishing for larger fish like school tuna up to around 20#.

    I fish around that same pier all the time and never had that happen. They get all excited about stuff like that but can’t keep bathrooms open at Opal beach or install new grills. For what they charge tourists you think they could provide greater access to the beach. Fortunately I have a senior lifetime pass

    Catfish trick Brant. Take a screwdriver and slide it down the catfish's throat. Hold the line tight against the screwdriver and twirl the catfish around the screwdriver. The catfish will spin and the hook will come out This works even if the hook is swallowed. Worse case is the line may break. But it does not require you to touch the catfish at all.

    I've got a boat in the marina, l pay for it, people fishing nearby creates the risk of shaft bearing issues and my wife getting a hook stuck in her foot or hand. Areas like this do require 24hr access and its easier to just say stay out. It's not about excluding fishermen, l fish all the time too. Maybe just fly a drone in and drop your bait next time.?

    How much has fishing in Pensacola changed in my lifetime? When I was 12-years old, I lived in Warrington and had a little boat that I would take out into Bayou Grande. The boat had no registration. I would fish alone with no license, no limit on my catch, and no life jacket. There were many times that the Florida Marine Patrol would approach me with engine off and ask me how the fish were biting. They didn't harass me because I did not have a life jacket. They had common sense and could see that I could easily swim to shore if the boat sank. The FMP were always cordial and never once yelled at me.
    What has changed in just my lifetime? You know the answer to that and none of it is good. Those experiences helped shape me to be independent and hard working. What is society like today? Dependent and lazy.
