Great video love surf fishing the beach with a popper or a surface lure, love bluefish they give a good fight and are good eating. The flip flops to me they are not being stolen you are giving them away, leaving them by the beach way bridge they appear to be a forgotten pair left there for someone to recover them..
@@beachbumdisciple2156 If you Accidentally leave something behind its now trash or litter.. So you have two options 1 throw it in the trash or 2 if it seems nice enough that the owner might return for them place it somewhere obvious and easy to find Like by the walkway bridge (You don't let trash pile up so its 1 or 2)
Awesome video Matt. I always enjoy those topwater action shots. I want to also say thanks for featuring me in the video and it was a pleasure meeting you. I never would have guessed that my first trip to that area would be watching you fish. You are special person. Stay bummy..
Please talk more about tackle!!!! I am in the Midwest and only get to fish twice a year, which means, I need more info on length and weight of lures! Love the channel, keep on keepin on.
I am up in the NE , I had gator blues on that spit up a whole bunker on me when they are feeding! Crazy aggressive fish and loads of fun to catch on topwater
Bluey. I love the blues myself. I do the backpack also when I'm walking and chunking lures and am constantly trying to modify mine for optimal use. I'd be interested in seeing your backpack and tackle box set up. Stay bummy dude! Maybe I'll run into you in ft. Morgan later this month!
Hey Bama Beach Bum if you come back to NC to fish I'd love to meet up and maybe get to fish the beach with you sir. Won't be long before the huge blues come into the surf again.
I'd like to second the head cam. Keeps the wrist and reel out of the way. I'm sure the chest rig is more comfy for long days though. As always, Good stuff! Keep it up man!!
Absolutely spectacular that whole experience is what and why I want to fish from the shore the beautiful sunrises and the great fishing experience thank you for making the great content.. I’m a little late seeing this vid but always great content 😁
Bluey, throwing a popper on the beach is my favorite style of fishing. Day 1, I probably would have left sooner, that storm was getting close. Great video
Nice! Gotta love that aggressive reaction of those! Fall pop up storms always are a threat! THAT ONE FLASH is alll it takes to make my big tail move like a trac star with my beach cart. I like your run and gun approach to fishing. I know it can tire you out HAHA
I personally really like using the head-mount strap when I'm out filming, simply because you can look and film and don't have to worry about doing things infront of the cam like you do with the chesty. Once you use it long enough and train yourself to not snap your head around and keep stable and pointed at what you're filming, I think you end up with much better footage and you miss way less. It works really great for fishing in the kayak cause you can film to your sides or even behind just by looking
Head-mounted camera tend to be too jerky. I have an inner ear issue that causes me to get motion sickness very easily. There have been more than few videos shot with a head-mounted camera that I simply can not watch.
Great footage of the water and the sky . Puts you right there ! I appreciate you going different places but the Gulf shores / orange beach areas should always remain your staple areas🤘
Bluey, from Rio Rancho NM, I have been enjoying your videos and visiting the area for a couple years now and can’t wait till early June next year for the family vacation at Cape San Blas, Florida. Do you have any tips/ spots for surf fish the area or know any guides/Characters at Cape San Blas we should look into? Any help is appreciated
Fish don't get mad, angry, or pissed off like we do, they are on the feed or not. A good lure or presentation is getting some type of reaction bite. You are very good at finding out what is working for what. But the biggest secret is "fish where the fish are".
Great video, next time you're having to leave your flip flops behind just burry them in the sand it will take you 10 seconds just move some sand with your feet put them in and cover them up they will be there when you return every time 👍
Be careful of those storms.I was fishing an old oxbow of the Miss. R. and put off going in too long. Had lightning blow up the top 1/2 of a bald cypress about 40 yards away. Too far to go to the bank. I laid down in the boat and crossed my fingers until it passed. When I got home had fouled my underwear and pinched a donut hole in my Levi’s! All joking aside, never pushed it that far again, ever!
Cant beat a popper 1st thing in the AM. I took my 85 year old dad out yesterday on my boat here in Tx. On the water at 5am throwing Super Spook poppers. No word of a lie his 1st cast got a 31" speck! Watching his face light up made it all worthwhile. But I got 2 real nice Jacks so I cant complain./
I carabiner my flip flops off my bag. And I get the $1.00 flip flops when Old Navy has there once a year sale, so no biggie if something happened to them.
Still, dirtbags who steal other folks gear are just that...dirtbags. Wonder how they live with themselves...their wives probably have to lock their purses.
Bluey! I had a rough go this week on the gulf. Fished top water spooks and poppers till shortly after sunrise, then switched to paddle tails for a while hoping for some surf flounder. No luck! Fished fresh shrimp and sand fleas with fish bites with only a few small takers. Usually do much better this time of year! Thanks for sharing. Great video!
Great video Beach Bum nothing like catching fish on top water really gets the blood pumping early in the morning so much fun and yes I was wondering about you not keeping any blues knowing you and Courtney like them I was thinking the same thing maybe take some home before you let her see that video LOL👍👍
Head mounted camera worked great. Gotta say you're boy Fred is the best fishing partner that you have, Brad might not make it for a day on the beach but Fred is going to be there.

That just seems like rationalizing petty theft if its not yours don't touch it unless its trash is a good rule to follow.

Thanks for the videos. Love the info. Your testimony video is still my favorite. Taking my son (10) to PCB next week to do some surf fishing
Awesome video Matt. I always enjoy those topwater action shots. I want to also say thanks for featuring me in the video and it was a pleasure meeting you. I never would have guessed that my first trip to that area would be watching you fish. You are special person. Stay bummy..
That shot of you holding the second blue is so pretty! The rising sun making the air golden. Great shot! Love the creativity!
The head cam always gives a better view. It keeps your hands and the reel from blocking the view. Great Job!!!
Please talk more about tackle!!!! I am in the Midwest and only get to fish twice a year, which means, I need more info on length and weight of lures! Love the channel, keep on keepin on.
Love top water fishing!
What size rod /power is good for popper on the beach?
I am up in the NE , I had gator blues on that spit up a whole bunker on me when they are feeding! Crazy aggressive fish and loads of fun to catch on topwater
The hat mount for the GoPro was a nice view for the popper
Bluey...I always enjoy watching your content. You are giving me some ideals. Might hit the beach this weekend. Tight Lines
Can you please do another ladder video? they are my favorite ones!😁
The whole color change at 3:30 wow! Looks wild. Love blue fishing !

Bluey the blue fish looked like a lot of fun. Watch out for the lightening storm and stay safe.
Really a lot of fun out there. That popper color really stands out conpared to all the silver bellied bait fish.
Thanks for letting us watch!
Where can I get that colored popper? I have been looking but can’t find one in that color.

Loved it brilliant content great mix up no was couple days fishing cant wait to see the next one great to c u out on ure own again 👍
What size is your bumpy stick that you used for top water
Absolutely spectacular that whole experience is what and why I want to fish from the shore the beautiful sunrises and the great fishing experience thank you for making the great content..
I’m a little late seeing this vid but always great content 😁
Looks like a dream morning! Thanks for posting the video, it's always great to learn from your vidz
BLUEY!!!! My grandson loves that show
beautiful sky
Can't wait to watch this channel blow up
Nice blue fish, action! Have you ever eaten a bluefish? Great video as always.
What do you recommend for a rod and reel for a beginner to surf fishing?
Reruns with Matt lol cheers buddy Ricky 🕺💃🕺💃🕺💃🎵🕺💃🎵🐈⬛🕺💃🎵🐈⬛🎸🎣

Wow what a beautiful picture for the camera to really not perform I’m sure it looked awesome that morning
Great footage of the water and the sky . Puts you right there ! I appreciate you going different places but the Gulf shores / orange beach areas should always remain your staple areas🤘
Why not get a carabiner for your flops and hook em up to your back pack?

Got my fishing fix for the day, Thanks Matt
Is it better to fish in the morning or evening around here?
Beautiful sky , I love it
We call our FRED...One Legged Charlie...cuz he always standing on one leg waiting for us to make a mistake with our catches ;)
Great video! Love fishing that area!
Had a pair of Quicksilver flipflops stolen the same way. Melbourne beach 😢. Never thought anyone would want my used flops…
Will you remove the trebles from that popper? Love to ur videos.
thanks always love the videos. keep living your dreams and taking us along. God Bless and stay safe 🙏
I love what you did when things weren't going well you didn't give up and look now your a great person and i love your fishing videos keep them coming
Bluey Great video. Would have been fun to see you land that shark. Bet you are glad you got your popper back though.
this is MrBear hudso fl.what was the rod your yousing and reel size thanks
Loved this video, this is the way I like doing it, just stalking the surf with a popper or a spoon 😎🎣

Blue fish of Alabama keep on a shining
Bluey, working hard putting out content and living the dream!
Just a thought, hook a carribeaner to your back pack and the flip flops to that.
Good video, you should save a bunch of those bluefish and have Brad fire up his smoker, smoked blues and a cold beer make a good ending of the day.
BLUEY. Great video Matt!❤️
Hey Matt,, the order catalog I use to order lures doesn't have pictures of what the lure colors look like. What color is that Halco Popper?
Pink fluoro.
@@jenryollivierre7086 thanks!
Love the videos plus he reminds of j dirt, life's a garden dig it
Where's Fred when baits washing up on the beach lol
You were lucky to catch blue fish blitzing the beach. Pulling through that many fish causes foul hooking. Keep it up.
Great video
Live action
Great video, next time you're having to leave your flip flops behind just burry them in the sand it will take you 10 seconds just move some sand with your feet put them in and cover them up they will be there when you return every time 👍
I've learned so much from you your my hero and don't listen to what people say about cutting your hair let it grow look like the fisherman you are 😎
You need to try smoking some of those blues.. We defiantly have not been sending many back. LOL
You have a lot of sand to bury your sandles in close to where you take them off. You will not have another pair stolen
Nice action!
I Love this Top Water Lures XRAP XPLODE... They are Super. KEep Doing Videos like this... I'm learning a Lot.
Doesn’t dragging fish on to dry sand mess up their slime coat?
Bluey blue fish are great to eat we like to soak them in milk then fry them up to eat
What do you feel is the best line size and material to fish off the beach?
That lure is that?
What is the popper your using?
Never mind. Halco 135
I really prefered the head cam. Allowed a much better field of view. Great vid as usual.

You mite not be a tall in statue but you are a giant in the hearts of us fisherman .you stay Buma

Bluey! Gonna buy me a Rooster popper!!
Killing those bluey blues on top water. Got to love it. Stay bummy.
Put on sign on flops “please don’t steal, I am poor”
Bluefish is South Africa's most enjoyed fish like your show
What kind of pliers are you using? Good video by the way
Bluey. Looks like a lot of fun. Was hoping you would get a shark
The week between Christmas and new years usually decent fishing there or should I go south?
That’s a toss up. Some years that is a killer time here. Others it’s already moved into our winter pattern of deadness.
@@BamaBeachBum thanks. extra fuel planned then. Miami sounds good.
The military term for flip flops are shower shoes 😆
When I was a kid, flip flops were commonly referred to as thongs...kinda funny visual now...
@@brokebackjoker4521 😆 🤣
Back in the day, we used to call 'em thongs. My wife hollers at me now if I call 'em that.
The tax man cometh. Rip little bluefish, Blue you’re my boy
If you're worried about your flops, put them on a big carabiner and clip them to your backpack.
I carabiner my flip flops off my bag. And I get the $1.00 flip flops when Old Navy has there once a year sale, so no biggie if something happened to them.
Still, dirtbags who steal other folks gear are just that...dirtbags. Wonder how they live with themselves...their wives probably have to lock their purses.

A lot of times early in the morning, you can tie a bubble rig on and catch the fool out of everything and anything almost every cast. Good video. 👍
Bubble rig works great! That’s for watching!
Not sure why you don't keep your flip flops with you next to your back pack ?
What can normally be caught during the end of November, I will be at orange beach
Redfish, pompano, whiting
favorite channel
Thanks for watching! 🤙
Good morning Mr bummy
Ima ask Brad,Brant and Ron if you are 5'8".
Bluey...I make it a HARD rule...lightning sends me packin' EVERY time. No fish is worth my life...
Great video Beach Bum nothing like catching fish on top water really gets the blood pumping early in the morning so much fun and yes I was wondering about you not keeping any blues knowing you and Courtney like them I was thinking the same thing maybe take some home before you let her see that video LOL👍👍
Carbiner clip those flops to the backpack - takes 5 seconds
Head mounted camera worked great. Gotta say you're boy Fred is the best fishing partner that you have, Brad might not make it for a day on the beach but Fred is going to be there.
Bluey!!
Drop the flops in different locations when parking skis at lodge I always separate .nobody wants one ski
Good idea
