decided that i want to cast out much farther at my usual spot so i just bought a Okuma Tundra TU-150 3 piece 15' medium/heavy rod and put my diawa df100a(10,000 size) with 100lb braid on it. looking forward to catching some giant catfish.
Caught some pompano here in Corpus Christi.. first time catching them and seriously one the best tasting saltwater fish I’ve had except speckles trout and flounder..
Nice video! I saw a big rip a little past your last rod in the video. Looks like your were fishing past the sand bar. Do you ever fish right inside the rips or in the first trough for pomps?
He does have a good point and that is if your are stuck having to fish sandbars but have the capability where u can cast out past the bar than you are in water that is first dibs and the cut guys end up being second dibs.
get ready im heading to maderia beach soon , with all new gear including two 15ft rods and big penn reels too and aint been fishing in almost 20 years, so come watch me do my mess up's..lol it'll be fun
Great video, I heard that there's this guy out of Navarre that makes a synthetic scent bait, he has a lot great content, he's Awesome,,,,,, Stay Safe God Bless 🎣,,,,
You don't need a 12 ft pole to catch pompano matter of fact you can catch them with just about any pole I have caught loads of them with a 7ft light medium ugly stick 2 piece and a lot easier to carry
Thank you!! I’m only 5’8” and holding a 12ft rod is like trying to practice for a rope balancing act. I brought a catfish ugly stick 7” 2 piece and lost an African Pompano in the Dominican Republic against the rock edges. I always tell people when buying a surf rod keep in mind your height and strength abilities. I keep in mind 1st control, 2nd power, 3rd distance. You must have full and good control of your rod to generate power so you can cast the distance.
back in the 80's i carried two huge penn shark poles from way up north to panama city beach every year, we used whole banita fish and garbage bags as bobbers to carry our baits out a couple miles then gerk hard on them to break the small test line from hooked fish to the bag then the bait would fall to the bottom. and we really didnt care about the big garbage bag back then lol that was just old school shark fishing. with out a bail carrier boat , we did this on the county pier. back then..lol
Great video and good advice, Americans on saltwater don't know what you're missing out on with Euro style surf casters, relax on the beach, some sun and fishing what more can you ask for. When vacationing in Florida, I always bring the Euro style surf casting rod, like yours, 13.5 foot. Couple of local fisherman were asking me about tips on bait and gear because they were shocked at what can be caught from shore literally 5 minutes from the condos they lived in. I steered the gentleman in the right direction as far as weight, hook and how to keep the bait on the hook. they were even more surprised when I Said I'm from Canada and nowhere near saltwater and Im cursed because saltwater fishing is what I live for. First chance I Get is to fish saltwater.

Great video I agree on the 12ft rod especially for making king cast and keeping the line above the shore break. Happy Easter 🤙🏽
Yes sir man!
I bought one of the 12' Ninja Tackle Dagger rods about a year ago and liked it so much I bought another one.
Boom! Just like that, some nice fishing action! Good Show Tony! I am making some plans to head SE in the fall, gonna catch me a pompano!
Come on man!
Oh, I’ve been doing it all wrong then. Guess all those fish I’ve caught in super close didn’t get the memo lol.
The pompano have been running real deep lately.
I have the 11’ ninja dagger.....love it. Can cast it to hell and back. Great rod.
Yes sir!
Caught some pompano here in Corpus Christi.. first time catching them and seriously one the best tasting saltwater fish I’ve had except speckles trout and flounder..
Very good!
Versatility is key with gear, bait, and location
I took a 15 ft rod to Canada 40 odd years ago.
Couldn't reach the middle of the Red river !
Nice video! I saw a big rip a little past your last rod in the video. Looks like your were fishing past the sand bar. Do you ever fish right inside the rips or in the first trough for pomps?
Yes! But the pompano right now all have been over the bar consistently.
What size reel do you pair with the ninja 12’?
I fish 15 ft. Rods on Navarre Beach regularly, great for getting out there.
He does have a good point and that is if your are stuck having to fish sandbars but have the capability where u can cast out past the bar than you are in water that is first dibs and the cut guys end up being second dibs.
New to surf fishing, Trying to sort out a rod size for my 13 year old and myself. Fort Walton Beach here.
I use 10 to 15 ft. Rods, but I watched Fish gum use small runt rods, with success
Thank you.@@frankbolin8918
how many oz weight do you use to cast out far on the 12 ft rods
Indonesian fisherman love 12ft rods.
buena pesca amigo ....
Looks like pompano on the grill brother!! Great Video and Music!!🐠🐠🦀🦀
I see a lot of guys with 12ft rods that have absolutely no clue how to cast them effectively. sometimes it's comical, other times dangerous
You are 100% right!
get ready im heading to maderia beach soon , with all new gear including two 15ft rods and big penn reels too and aint been fishing in almost 20 years, so come watch me do my mess up's..lol it'll be fun
Even if I am 5ft 4?
Hey Tony what ounce of weight do you use great vid as always 👍 👌 😀 stay blessed 🙌 😇 🙏
Ooohhh new intro... nice pomps!! What is your cast difference between an 11’ rod and the 12’ rod?
I do not have any 11 foot rods but next time I'm out with my friends I'll cast theirs.
Great video, I heard that there's this guy out of Navarre that makes a synthetic scent bait, he has a lot great content, he's Awesome,,,,,, Stay Safe God Bless 🎣,,,,
I’ll have to look him up.....😂
Imagine if you had a drone to carry your bait on to the nether world 😂. Try it
Like the new intro plaiya
Thanks
are the reel seat screws plastic or metal on that ninja ?
Plastic
Fish gum 100 times better than fish bites.
Thank you sir
Great info Sir, we’re headed down this summer! What pound line do you fish pompano with?
Rigs 25lb, casting braid 30lb
@@FishGum thank you for the help!
I'm about to buy a 15 foot for 49 bucks first time surf fishing
Good job getting the pompano!
You got more....

Me with my 14 footer 😊
Head over water you say LOL
Water over head lol!!!
Their dagger series are all out of stock because they were deemed lost/ stolen in transit 😫😫😫 I’ve been waiting for them to go back in stock!!!!
6 weeks
If the wind is from your back, a helium balloon and a cloths pin works really well to get your bait

Fishing off the rocks in the azores, 10 foot pole doesn’t do it, what would you recommend?
@@manuelmach86 look at south African style cliff fishing it also done in Hawaii. 12 foot or you can use 3 Oz weight and overhead cast.
13 foot and up Century or Zziplex rods. Made in the UK. Astounding casting distance.
Can you get me a 6meters length fishing rod....
Nice looking pompano
nice mess of fish.
