Great catches! I agree with you about Jacks, they’re great gamefish but get a lot of undeserved hate from some anglers. I’ve heard people who hate Jacks later tell me that GTs (Giant Trevally) are on their bucket list to go catch one day. Don’t get me wrong, I’d love to go catch a GT some day but I have no problem with “GT at home” too
I would love to catch a GT. I watch the CAST UA-cam channel and that guy is a beast catching those GTs on the Great Barrier Reef. The biggest jacks I’ve seen here were in fort pierce and they were monsters. Thanks for watching and commenting i really appreciate it.
You definitely can eat jacks. I don’t think I’ve ever eaten one. They do tend to have worms but so do most other fish. One day I might do a catch clean and cook on a small jack just to try it. I’m sure they will be good I’ve seen people eat them.
Thanks Mickey I really enjoy catching jacks. They are probably the best fighting fish pound for pound we have inshore. Thanks for watching and commenting.
I guess I’m gonna have to give it a try. Next time I’m out I’ll keep a smaller one and clean it and try eating one. I’m going to call you out on that video though so I hope it’s good. Lol keep an eye open because I’m going to make it happen soon. Thanks for watching and commenting I really appreciate it.
Thank you I’ll keep them coming. I’m having so much fun making these videos and I’m glad you enjoy watching them. Thank you for the positive feedback I really appreciate that.
Great advice thank you. I found after a boot does that to me I never wear it again. These KALKAL boots are super comfortable and they are my go to boots now.
Thank you. I haven’t fished up there in a little while but I do have plans on fishing up there here in the next month or two. I used to slay the redfish up there and we did alot of shrimping up that way. Thank you for watching and commenting I really appreciate it.
I know we checked the next day and saw they were in I probably would’ve kept 2 if I would have known but it’s good to watch them swim away and grow to. They are biting real good in grant but the bite here in Melbourne is slow nothing but jacks and lady fish.
@@centralfloridafisherman9931 im up by edgewater do a bunch of fishing from there down and over by scottsmoor on the irl side. lots of reds and trout around right now were finding them like you were in the deeper drop offs, even if not truly deep any depth deeper then the majority seems to be pretty good right now! Also alota bends in the creeks where the current has washed out the sand or and east to west facing channels or creek systems have been good to for the specks too. Time consuming finding or running hole to hole but when you find them they stacked in super thick ton of 15-19” and a few 23” mixed in the bunch.
I use owner j hooks. I will on occasion use circle hooks all depends on what I’m feeling that day. Sometimes I just like setting the hook. If I’m fishing large baits for snook tarpon and sharks it’s mostly always a circle hook.

I watched a video a couple years ago and you can eat the small jacks,the guys that caught them cooked them on a grill if I remember right!

Hi Chad, You guys caught a bunch of Trout and Jacks. Personally, I love to catch Jacks. They give a great fight. Take care and have fun, Mickey

Try a piece of KT tape and wear them on your heel to prevent blistering.
Great advice thank you. I found after a boot does that to me I never wear it again. These KALKAL boots are super comfortable and they are my go to boots now.
Very nice video. I'm new to your channel. Do you ever fish Titusville Haulover area?
Thank you. I haven’t fished up there in a little while but I do have plans on fishing up there here in the next month or two. I used to slay the redfish up there and we did alot of shrimping up that way. Thank you for watching and commenting I really appreciate it.
Guess this was filmed before the new year ?
No 4 days ago
I struggled right before the new year. Just started heading south and the bite is way better
i just assumed because you said the specks werent in season but thats just nov 1st-dec 31st
