    Hey everyone, please pray for some people that were involved in a boating collision in Savannah, GA on Friday. There were nine people involved, 5 have been found deceased, two are in the hospital, and two are still missing. There was a young girl who lost her mother, father, and two older brothers in the accident. This happened when there were a lot of boats out on the water, so please be safe and keep these people in your prayers. 😣🙏

    1/2 bucktail with sand flea fishbites became my go-to last summer for mid-day beach trips up on LI.
    Caught lots of fluke plus the occasional striper, blue and weakfish. Also got a lot of kingfish/sea mullet/whiting bites, but rarely hooked them with that setup.

    Rode down to Ocean Isle, took my 3 and 5 yr old boys out w the family today. Only had my 1/8oz trout eye w/ zman electric chicken paddle tail. Maybe 45 casts and two small flounder just for fun. More fleas than I have seen in my life!! Sadly, no rigs to fish it :(
    So we switched it up and caught DOZENS...of fleas w our hands. All smiles from the boys. Out came wife's paddle board board and some falls and sore quads later, an ice cold brew. Tight lines with tan lines!

    I once saw on Carolina Outdoor Journal a fishing trip they did catching Pompano at the mouth of the Cape Fear and they were using an artificial jig. This may be the show:Cape Fear Pompano - Classic S2E10. It was a long time ago but I do remember the jig was small and a yellow color. It was in the middle of the channel in shallow water between Bald Head and Fort Caswell.

    Here in Florida's Gulf west coast, the pass inlets, lined with rock rip rap, are crawling with sand fleas, like John's Pass...and along those rocky shorelines, are where we find Pompano.
    I've watched you in your kyack, along similar rocky breaks, and I'm curious if Pompano aren't there as well as off the beach.
    At least in Florida, where you find sand fleas near the Gulf passes and inlets, are where the Pompano roam.
    Lures of choice are small jigs, bucktailed, and a small shrimp treat for enhancement has been known to draw attention.

    I like Fish Bites and have found them to be effective but so many of these testimonials consist of "I'm going to attach some prime bait, and a Fish bites." If you are attaching fresh shrimp or sand fleas to the hook, that is what is getting you bites, not the Fish Bites.

    • @BeetleBuns
      @BeetleBuns 2 роки тому

  • @woodystemms3799
    @woodystemms3799 2 роки тому

    Long stretches of "straight" beach, without periodic projections, make reading the water harder. Scouting at low tide really helps. Pompano can turn-on at dawn, and high water always helps, but location and water clarity will be key if you're tossing jigs. ( like those Goofy-Jigs you've used previously ) One visual clue on the beach are concentrations of small cochina shells. They indicate places where currents have come together, carrying the remnants of Pompano feeding to the shore. In off-colored water, you're spot-on with either one of the Clam Fishbites flavors. There's no better source of information on Pompano, than "the legend" Larry Finch : ua-cam.com/users/results?search_query=larry+finch+pompano+man

    • @EliasVFishing
      @EliasVFishing  2 роки тому

      Thanks - there’s some pockets I’ve found but rarely anything that feature rich. It sure seems like the days I beach pompano are the ones I’m seeing sand fleas in the wash - which isn’t too often!

    • @woodystemms3799
      @woodystemms3799 2 роки тому

      @@EliasVFishing No doubt they've been an anomaly in Carolina waters. The lack of a size or number limit says volumes. There have been several instances in the NE where fish are being found far outside what were once "traditional" ranges and seasonal patterns. How far it goes, and with which species, will depend on the food supply, or lack thereof.
