There isn’t a more grateful person on YT making fishing videos that this man. Love his mom loves his country and love God. One channel I don’t have to worry about my kids watching with me. Thanks for putting out great content doing what you love. Be safe out there
I don't fish, never really been interested in fishing, and idk how I got recommended your vids, but I love watching your videos! Your vibe is so chill. Keep up the good work!
@@BamaSaltwater I think I find an attraction to your vids bc I've lived close to the Gulf all my life (since I was 5). Its super interesting to me how you go so far out in a bay boat, as well as the variety of species you catch. I once went 6 miles out on a chartered fishing trip out of South Padre and I thought that was intense lol. Had to stare at the horizon the entire time if you know what I mean..
Thanks for being my saltwater teacher. My wife and I are moving to Baldwin county from north Alabama when we retire in 2 years. I am learning how to fish the Gulf one video at a time. We've been beach fishing Gulf Shores, Orange Beach, Dauphin Island, and Coden for years and really love Pompano. We can't wait to trade the freshwater boat for an off-shore center console. Maybe will see you at Hooked Up Bait and Tackle or the pier. We think the world of you! Thanks
Stephen … I’ve been binge watching your videos for the past 3+ hours. Been a subscriber for over a year and I occasionally binge watch your channel. You are a highly skilled salt water fisherman, excellent boat skipper, and a whale of a videographer!!! You have perfected the balance between entertainment and education!!! I thoroughly enjoy your channel!!! Question: do you ever take folks out for saltwater fishing adventures commercially. If I am ever in Alabama again, I would love to do a day trip out for reds and speckled trout. Anyways, I want to thank you for your Christian lifestyle and your military service!!! Me and mine wish you and yours all things great and good. God bless and be safe!!! Chuck Knight from Atascocita (Houston), Texas. ✝️🎣👨🌾🐩🦌🙏
You're videos are the best on you tube! You inform, you teach, you explain....and even when you're alone you say "we" instead of "l"!!!! You make us feel like we are with you!!!! Keep it up "we" love it!!!!😂😂😅😅😅❤❤❤❤😊😊😊😊😊😊
Hi, Stephen. Fun video today. Have you ever considered doing a Q&A to answer viewer questions? My question would be, have you ever been spooked by anything when you were out fishing alone?
Would be a good idea one day for sure! And honestly, the freakiest things at night are dolphin. You don't know they are there until you hear the air hole right next to you in the pitch black. I know they're not looking to harm, but it's just surprising haha
You are the humblest fisherman down there in the Gulf Shores area. Thanks for taking us along with you. A question though...how fast are you going when trolling?
Thank you!! I just like to fish haha. and depends but most of the time with lures is 7-8 knots. Skirted ballyhoo, around 6 knots. and live bait, around 2 knots or less
Usually I'm super jelly watching your videos....but yesterday we managed to land a ~45" wahoo outside Sherman's C. Eatin' good in the neighborhood tonight. Keep flaunting your skills. Love the site.
I love your fishing videos they are my favourite. Im also a fisherman but i want to make videos like you but i dont have the courage to do that. You are filming and fishing thats awsome. I wanna make videos just like you.
Thank you!! I just find it mesmerizing to experience something that we may see a lot down here but you dont get to experience that just anywhere!! Glad you enjoyed it.
I would love to see as a long time subscriber the electronics on your boat and how you use them. You always explain the bait and tackle setup, clean and cooks, and I think it would add to the presentation. Thanks for what you do and ROLL TIDE !
For sure, I'll try to integrate some. I keep it incredibly simple and fish all public numbers. I mainly use it for reef locations and natural bottom along with depth. I study a lot of charts online of recent water color reports, etc to find the fish!
I saw you when I was riding down the road today! I love the videos and thank you for putting this UA-cam channel together to make these awesome videos! Much love. Keeps up the good work
Love spending my Saturday mornings with ya, and i could just replay that moment with the dolphins over and over and over lol. It was fantastic...I almost felt like I was there a moment lol. Have a great weekend and say hi to mom for me!
I love your channel so much and I always watch the video. You inspired me to start my own yt channel and I’m getting a jon boat for Christmas and hope to try to make similar videos but in my lake. Love you content thanks for the inspiration ❤
Love the channel we’re here in southeast La and fish Venice often pretty much the same rigs and techniques the videos are great to watch when we’re not on the water keep it up . What deck coating do u have installed on the boat and do u like it ?
Love your videos Steven! Very informative and fun to watch! You always have the best attitude! We have been to Orange beach once to fish and looking to buy a house down there. My wife is pushing for Destin but Orange Beach just seems like a chill laid back place.
Hey Steven! Me and my family watch every one of your videos when they drop and we enjoy watching you do exactly what we do in the gulf! They never comment, so here I am speaking on their behalf to say we love your content. Question, how close to shore have you successfully caught a wahoo?
I do the same thumbs up as soon as I see your posting. I’m usually on my iPad, so after I thumbs up, I stream your video to my 75” tv and off we go fishing !
Steve, Can you do a video showing how you use the sonar to select the reefs and how you position the boat on the reefs. Been fishing the liberty ships and tanks and can't seem to limit out on snapper. Even with a trolling motor.
I cane into the store today go some birds prey gonna go out tomorrow and hopefully get some snapper hopefully i run into you or your brother would be a honor love you vids my wifes grandpa owns some land in mobile and your videos inspired me to come here more and start fishing the 12 hr drive is for sure worth it and what cut bait do you prefer got pin fish crockers and mullet
What pound braid were you using on your heavy setup when that big one broke you off? I heard you say 50lb liter but I’m curious what you’re using for braid. Scratch that I spoke too soon
www.outdooralabama.com/sites/default/files/fishing/Saltwater/Artificial-Reefs/Reef_Brochure.pdf That pdf has more than you'll ever be able to fish ever
We have Grey Heron where I live (Pt. Conception area in CA) and they hunt gophers. They'll stand above a gopher mound, and wait for one to pop up. It's pretty crazy when they catch one.
Sometimes, it depends how long they stay in the spread, in this case, yes I did. Last trip that happened, I caught and landed a wahoo. These dolphin are smart. Never hooked one
Hey man, love the content… I noticed you have your t top on your 24ft some days a some days you don’t… is there a reason for this? And if so, do you have a quick release or something? Thanks
Thanks! And I removed it and sold it. It was bolted in , I detached to make more room for casting and less wind resistance while trailing and running on plane
I always click the thumbs up as soon as I see Bama Saltwater. Thanks for taking us fishing today. You never disappoint,,, love the dolphin footage!
Me too.
I click it within seconds it starts. They are always good videos.
Thank y'all for the kind words!!!
@@davidstolarski741 me too!

WhichSord knife do you recommend for filleting your smaller fish like the mangro snapper.
Best fishing channel on YT!!!
Far from it but I appreciate the kind words , I just love to fish and share these cool trips!

For sure!! Ill have to do another one, I did a nice crab cook the other day but I didnt film. It was pretty dang tasty though ahaha
@@BamaSaltwater glad you enjoyed it! and maybe a tiny bit jealous 🤣
Great video smooth seas and some awesome catches
Another great day of fishing. The turtle and dolphins were beautiful!!!
I thought so too !! Happy to share

Be safe through the hurricane! LOVE the channel
Love the channel so much thank you for all the great content. Can you do a surf fishing catch clean and cook?
Thank you and definitely will soon, I haven't been in a bit
What I like about your channel is, you show all the cool extra footage of other sea life. I don't see that on other channels
Thank you!! I just find it mesmerizing to experience something that we may see a lot down here but you dont get to experience that just anywhere!! Glad you enjoyed it.
As always another great video! What a blessed life you've been given.
Hi Bama! I'm a 13 year old boy and I really love your videos, they are so educational and entertaining! ❤❤
Hey 👋 I am 12 years old and I loved fishing

Thanks Wade!
Have you ever caught a dolphin while fishing? Love your videos.
Keep your eye on that weather coming up, the end of September and into October look very active.
👌👌
Love the channel we’re here in southeast La and fish Venice often pretty much the same rigs and techniques the videos are great to watch when we’re not on the water keep it up . What deck coating do u have installed on the boat and do u like it ?
always enjoy your vids.
Thank you!
That second mangrove was a stud !!!!
Thanks, it was a good one, took a while to get em to eat but glad they cooperated !
Nice.Good footage.
Thanks!
Love your videos Steven! Very informative and fun to watch! You always have the best attitude! We have been to Orange beach once to fish and looking to buy a house down there. My wife is pushing for Destin but Orange Beach just seems like a chill laid back place.
Thank you!! I enjoy fishing and being out ! And it's beautiful down here once you get past all the concrete haha!
That is amazing thank you
Happy to share, thanks!
Hey Steven! Me and my family watch every one of your videos when they drop and we enjoy watching you do exactly what we do in the gulf! They never comment, so here I am speaking on their behalf to say we love your content. Question, how close to shore have you successfully caught a wahoo?
Great video as usual always enjoy watching you fish my man! Tight lines!
Thanks, Tight lines!
Y’all stay safe I know you got that hurricane coming. I know you’re prepared.
Man your videos are the best. Love every single one of them. Hope to be living a similar life one day!
Thank you!!! It's a beautiful place for sure
More catch and cooks please
I’m a charter fisherman out of the key and I know this time of the year is slow,
Awesome video!!
Thanks!
Fishing a reef looks like a whole lot of fun and not knowing what you will catch makes it that much more fun
Thanks!! It's always a cool time for sure
I do the same thumbs up as soon as I see your posting. I’m usually on my iPad, so after I thumbs up, I stream your video to my 75” tv and off we go fishing !
Haha That's awesome, thank you!!
That turtle at 16:50 😂 he was like Oh 💩!
Steve,
Can you do a video showing how you use the sonar to select the reefs and how you position the boat on the reefs. Been fishing the liberty ships and tanks and can't seem to limit out on snapper. Even with a trolling motor.
It's been tough sometimes my better fish come drifting. The key to most of it is downsizing leader and hook sizes and live baits
Awesome!
I would like to see a video on gulf panfish like ruby red lips, croaker, squirrel fish etc catch and cook.
Love the videos! Sometimes maybe just a short clip checking the crab traps? 👍
For sure!! I'll have to remember. Its just habit for me at this point to set, check, and cook em without thinking about filming it sometimes
wow amazing fishing
Thanks!
Yeah boi let's get it brudda 💪 💯
Yezzir! Thanks
Which model Sord knife do you recommend for filleting smaller fish like the Mangro Snapper you were fileting
7" Medium Flex is my favorite for most species
Great video Stephen 👍👍
Man I hate when I break off even if it is only a jig head.
IKR same but it's expected sometimes haha ! Thank you
Bama idk about you but just feeling a big fish pulling line is a fun experience too. Nice to catch but just as fun to rip line
I cane into the store today go some birds prey gonna go out tomorrow and hopefully get some snapper hopefully i run into you or your brother would be a honor love you vids my wifes grandpa owns some land in mobile and your videos inspired me to come here more and start fishing the 12 hr drive is for sure worth it and what cut bait do you prefer got pin fish crockers and mullet
Mullet, cigar minnows for frozen. Anything live works great
Brother great video will be moving down there in next few months house being built in Fort Morgan. Would like to meet ya
Closing in on 200k congrats!
🙌🙌
Another great video
Thank you!
Do you ever do charters or take anyone out? Come down in April and August would love to go out and fish.
I do not currently guide or charter but thank you! There's plenty of em down here to choose from for sure though.
What pound braid were you using on your heavy setup when that big one broke you off? I heard you say 50lb liter but I’m curious what you’re using for braid.
Scratch that I spoke too soon
Hey, my man, you had something big off that ruby red. Good job 👏 anyway. I love your videos from Florida East Coast
I sure wonder what monsters broke you off! Great video.
Big AJ !
Nice Vid Thanks!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Love the vids
What type of knots do you tie?
What do you use to get your coordinates? Like for the artificial reefs?

Need go fishing 🎣 with you on e day😊
your boat is super nice, what kind of boat is it?
2007 Clearwater 24ft
@@BamaSaltwater great boat, thanks!
Were you south of the weather buoy when you were 35 miles out?
way south from it . The buoy 42012 is 12nm south of perdido pass
There he go Damm bamm get em
When your trolling and dolfin appear do you pull the lures?
Sometimes, it depends how long they stay in the spread, in this case, yes I did. Last trip that happened, I caught and landed a wahoo. These dolphin are smart. Never hooked one
Hey man, love the content… I noticed you have your t top on your 24ft some days a some days you don’t… is there a reason for this? And if so, do you have a quick release or something? Thanks
Thanks! And I removed it and sold it. It was bolted in , I detached to make more room for casting and less wind resistance while trailing and running on plane
I wonder what took that ruby red. Craziness
Big Amberjack haha
Was wondering if you take people out fishing 🎣?
Steve!!!🤘🏽
