I really like you fishing channel. Grew up watching Jose Wojebe and Flip Pallot and just about everyone else at that time. Your genuine kindness for others and your humility, in my opinion, separate you from the rest. May there be much success and joy coming to you as you have helped and inspired others who share your passion. The Lord Jesus Christ loves you.
Thanks Joey for helping me save my bait net @ the Tidal pool couple days ago. 👍
Anytime.
Best live bait for Snook there is. Hands down!!
Agree.
Cant wait to try this near juno today. Going to be my first time using croakers and snook fishing on the east coast.
It works there too!
What tide are snook usually in the surf? Or does it matter?
Just depends on the day. I've done well on both.
Joey just kicks out TONS of KNOWLEDGE AWESOME Chanel ✌️
Thanks!
That's crazy down here in Texas we use the hard head croaker mainly for big trout and reds
Nice!
I love croakers one of the best baits
Oh yeah!
Great video brah...Cant wait for the big ones you catch this summer....keep up the good work
I'm pumpped too!
ever use croakers offshore? You think they'd make good bottom bait out there for grouper? Nice vid again, cant wait to watch more of these beach snookin vids.
They are awesome bottom bait. The big red snapper and grouper tear them up.
Great fishing videos as always 👍
Good info👍, looking forward to more beach snook videos.
It is going to be an awesome summer!
Great video brother!!
Thanks for sharing 👍🎣🐟🐟🐟🤝
Anytime!
Great stuff man! Can't wait to get down there in a few weeks.
Good luck. Should be good!
We call those “spot” up north.. we call hardheads(croaker) lol
Adrian Dandridge ya for real 😂😂
Yeah I've heard that before. You guys also get the giant hardheads. They look like mini red fish up there.
Great 👍🏻 pointers thanks
Anytime!
5:52 when the Jamaican accent hits you
Hahaha.
Can you do a video on where and how you catch you're croakers. A how 2 video.
Here ya go. Made this last year.

Good stuff Joey!!! We were at the beach Tuesday with Mojarra’s and caught a couple Snook, blues, and jumped a huge Tarpon... Did you get the croakers cast netting at the beach ? Thank you for all the education!!!
I found some Croakers at the beach. I can't wait for the tarpon to really show up.
Two different species, croakers and spots...spots are good for bait but also pan size are great to eat.
different species go by different names depending on where you are. Croaker is a very broad species of fish. A red fish is even in the same species. Annoying and confusing but people tend to call this one bait fish spots, croakers, soft-heads, and mizzukies.
@@JoeyAntonelli thanks from Va. Enjoy watching you do your thing. This chick can't wait to hit the water.😎
Thanks for watching!
BEST TIME OF YEAR!!
Yes!
love your vids man! DO you have any tips on editing?
I don't really have any tips I just cut Clips together on my cell phone. I have a card reader where I can plug my memory card into my cell phone and everything goes straight from the GoPro to my cell phone to UA-cam. I never touch a computer.
@@JoeyAntonelli Damn thats simple as heck. Thanks!
woahhhhh... that's cool..
We should put on a tournament for 1 day 1 mile stretch of Beach that they've been biting good on in the middle of summer I bet we could get some good prizes and $$ going someone would walk away very happy. KING OF THE TROUGH™.
There is a beach snook tournament but it's open to all of the beaches. Search it on Google.
Where can I catch croakers?
This should help you. I made this last year.

What beach do you normal fish on
I live in Indialantic so I do a lot of fishing around there. But I'm constantly moving all over Brevard. I fish from Sebastian up through Cocoa Beach. As far as snook fishing on the beach is concerned they are at every Beach All Summer Long. Find a beach with not a lot of people on it and you'll be set.
Great video. Do you ever use circle hooks instead of the live bait hooks? If so what size?
Sometimes I use circle hooks. With a big date like a croaker I use a 5/0 - 7/0 light wire circle hook.
Do you think the Radisson would be a good place to catch a couple dozen Croaker's
Sometimes it is. You just got to try it out.
Can you recommend a lure for the surf for this time of year?
Hard baits like windcheaters plugs and Spoons can work well now.
How well do you do with Whitting for bait? Sometimes that’s all that’s present on the beach at times. I’ve had success with good size snook, but the whitting just don’t seem as skitzty on the line, a little calm. Will you use large ones or medium?
When I use Whiting I like them to be small. Hook them in the tail and they will move around a little more. You are right though they do not provide as much action as the croakers
Joey Antonelli thanks for the reply! Agreed, I don’t see as much success on the bigger ones. Good advice on tail hooking, will definitely give that a shot when whiting are the only option.
are the croakers still around?
When it's calm they are.
Hey Joey I’m about to Buy a Avet LX G2 I was wondering what size line you would recommend to put on the Spool and size Top shot if I wanted to get some grouper on the inlet.
A 2-speed reel is very important. Makes a huge difference. I use 80 lb backing with a large Top Shot of 400 lb mono.
Joey Antonelli thanks for getting back to me and for the advice I ended up getting a Avet 30W Btw.
Nice!
croakers have moved on folks......dont even bother fishing the east coast this season....
That sure is what it seems like. I made one last-ditch attempt looking for bait last night. All it happened is I lost my glasses.
I have no idea what happened to them they just disappeared
UA-cam Jesus Joey netted them all😂
Hey now we both know there was plenty of them out there that day. These things moved out. They'll be back.
Joey Antonelli I think they just moved off a bit with this blow and yes there were a ton of em
Used to think sand perch was the magic bait. Till I used croakers
Just depends on where you are. I would say that a croaker is my favorite bait. Sometimes they definitely key on other things though.
Why didnt you make it yourself and what weight is the rod?
Why didn't I make what myself? I did make that rod and then I had a chip guide so I gave it to my buddies at Burr Custom Rods to replace the guide for me. While they were doing that they rewrapped all the guides. They are set up to do it and I would have to get all my rod building stuff out just to fix one guide. The blank was a discount blank in a $5 bin. My best guess is that it's about 10 to 20 pound rating.
Croakers = Big Snook almost ever single time!
Love that thump!
Whst area do you fish...I wannna take a bday trip in the next two weeks
I fish all over Brevard. If you're trying to Target snook from the beach I suggest Southern Brevard County.
Joey Antonelli honestly man I got no clue where I wanna catch them lol I just wanna catch umm
Well im headed to brevard county and try it... hopefully I'll do some good n catch one.... it's a solo trip for my bday next week...hmu on insta... apexfishn maybe we could work a deal out for some pointers
I will be doing a lot of snook fishing on the beach in the next couple months.
First
Second
Your turn dude!
Joey Antonelli ???
Go catch that beach snook.
O hell na I’m lit first to like and first to comment Sethook notification squad
Wow 4 ads on this short 10min vid . Guess whenever your following is little to none, along with the views. Gotta try n get some kinda money still huh ? With that said after all the wasted time. 2 dinker fish and ends the video
Spots suck here in Texas... golden croaker will whack em. Throw the spots away... they suck.
Love your vids brotha but the intro music needs to be different
You have to explain yourself a little bit better than that giovannini
Let's put it this way, Giovanni and myself put in several hours yesterday with no luck. It was not a good day yesterday. By the time June rolls around it should be game on
