    Another fun awesome video. What separates you far and beyond other fishing UA-camrs is your ability to educate others with tidbits such as how to gaff , free spooling and other tricks of the trade etc… showing your setups and sharing every detail helps us all be better fisherman. Not only do I thoroughly enjoy your videos but I usually learn a little something too…..Thanks

    I grew up fishing the Gulf in Louisiana, then I spent 18 years in Minnesota fishing for a record bass. I found the easiest way to make a Minnesotan mad is when they ask why I moved up there I'd say, well someone had to come up here and teach you boys how to fish lol. The biggest largemouth I caught was 8lbs. I usually limited out on my way to work in the mornings.
    Now that I'm officially retired and back home, look out Grand Isle!
    Great channel, God Bless!!!

Also watch a shark go after a giant tarpon. 20 feet from us pull the tarpon ashore cause it was floating around us and took some pictures of it. It was a monster.

    Atlantic bumpers and crazy fish are two different species. Bumpers are more round and have a greenish blue back with chartreuse tail and fins with an oil black dot on their tail. Crazy fish are more oblong and silver also Crazy fish have their stigma because they have a poison sack that connects to their belly horns and dorsal fin and causes pain.

I have alot of flukes, fresh water jigs, and crankbaits. What size rod and reel , line , and basic lures would you recommend for saltwater on the pier and what times of day. I'm happy to catch any species, would love to catch and keep. But I can fish at night too. Thanks, - Trent from Tennessee.

      This helps a lot with the size limits: www.outdooralabama.com/sites/default/files/PDF%20documents/Creel%20Limits%20B&W%20for%20printing_0.pdf . Also , must haves on the pier is a drop net and/or gaff (the net is extremely useful in bringing the fish up). Bring pliers, a measuring device, cooler with ice if you plan on keeping anything, a fillet knife etc.

    Wow how long was that king mackerel? It looked like it was fun catching. Why didn't you want to eat the king mackerel? It sounded like you were going to give him away to someone. That fish sorta reminded me of a wahoo I know that it doesn't have the stripes as a wahoo but it was rather long and bullet shaped.
    I'm looking forward to more fishing adventures please make more videos. Are you going to take the boat out? Just curious. I don't mind watching you land them on the pier.
    Looking forward to the next video. I feel I'm right there catching the fish.

    This makes me miss living close to the ocean.. I was born and partially raised in southern Mississippi (born on Keesler, raised partially in D'Iberville) and lived on Guam for a couple years.. Living in the middle of Northern California where it's 2 hours to the ocean kind of sucks. I don't care what kind of bass you're fighting or running light tackle with a big trout.. nothing compares to saltwater fishing.

      Put in time, nothing beats experience and patience haha. Also, observe those that are actually "catching". That'll help you figure out the best techniques/rigs/etc.

    What are the wheels you've got on your cart? I'm looking to replace my orange balloon wheels and only use them on the beach from now on, I'd like a set just for the pier.

      They're the standard Fish N Mate Wheels, J&M Tackle used to carry them, but you might be able to pick them up off of the Fish N Mate website : ** www.rodrack.com/accessories/tire-for-fish-n-mate/ . They work much better on hard surfaces, such as the pier, and hold more weight

      @@BamaSaltwater Thanks dude! I can live with 70 bucks for a pair! I was gonna get the Grey balloon tires that are more rugged but they're 300 bucks, I could almost have a spare cart for that much lol.
