    Great video. I fish oc when I'm on vacation but never fished that peir. I fish the inlet, the oceanic peir, the 50 bridge and 2nd to 3rd st bayside.

    Cool video Gotta love the sabiki rig. I'm a marylander, and i've never had that kind of luck on that pier.
    Next time i'm going with that sabiki rig.
    Great job bro I enjoyed the video very much.

    Had fun today. The small teaser is the one for hickory shad. The others are just a variety pack for fluke, sea bass, and stripers. I'll make sure you are set for September. Tight lines.

    That mystery fish is a silver perch. They are related to the other drum species like spot, croaker, weakfish, etc. Seemed like a nice day. We typically fish the Oceanic pier in the inlet and have not fished that pier. May have to give it a try. We love variety and my daughter hasn't caught a clearnose skate yet. Good luck on your next trip. Looking forward to more videos.

      Big spot are good eating, except for the bones. Back in the day we'd fill a bushel basket, steam and flake and make fish cakes to freeze for winter eating. About as good as a crab cake.

    • @Exploremorefishing
      @Exploremorefishing  2 місяці тому

      Lol great question, so the best part about having a bailess reel is it prevents you from accidentally casting an expensive lure out and it flying into the ocean , sometimes the bail flips over accidentally and it causes your whole rig/ lure to snap off ...it's happened to me plenty of times 😀 one less mechanical issue to worry about, hope this makes sense

      It's a term used to describe when predator fish such as bluefish are attacking smaller baitfish at the surface of the water , usually you see the baitfish spraying/ jumping at the top of the water to get away ..one of the best ways to catch fish in my opinion..a lot of fun
