Plan to visit Cancun mid April with my family(with 2 young kids). We love fishing - any recommendation on resorts / beach that supports surf fishing? thanks
@@Bsprecksfishing when I went I stayed at the Cancun palace it was nice and safe the next trip I’m going on I’m going to get one of those tubes for the fishing pools
I love that you use the same gear as you would on LI down there lol trusty SP Minnow What SP Minnow was that, and is it a sinking or floating one? I saw what you tagged in the description but Amazon doesn't specify. Nice fishing
Thank you for watching! And yeah I mean all the same basic presentations and concepts work everywhere. It was the floating 5 1/8 oz sp minnow with the hooks swapped out one size up
The first night I fished the swimming area from Ziva where I caught the horse eyed Jack, security came and kicked me out. Apparently you cannot fish there. But you can fish the public beach and jetty on the backside of the resort. That’s where I caught the Cero Mackerel and the houndfish. Ziva is amazing though, you will have a great time! Let me know any other questions you have
I’m going to the Hyatt ziva over Christmas and wanted to fish from shore within walking distance from the hotel I was planning on bringing some sabikis and a light tackle setup any suggestions?
I was also wondering where is a good spot by the hotel that’s productive and isn’t too much of a hike to get to did you fish off the public beach behind the hotel at night? I was thinking early morning and after dark due to less crowds and less likely to be kicked out?
@@niconyc2889 I fished the waterfront of the hotel the first morning when I got the jack in the dark but afterwards a security guard came out on to the rocks and told me I couldn’t fish there. So the rest of the trip I fished the public beach behind the hotel
@@Bsprecksfishing they do but they are very vague with their rule. It states large fishing hooks have to be checked but small ones that don’t pose a security risk can be in the carry on. They don’t actually give measurements though which is annoying.
I get around (get around, 'round, 'round, I get around) From town to town (get around, 'round, 'round, I get around) I'm a real cool head (get around, 'round, 'round, I get around) I'm makin' real good bread (get around, 'round, 'round, I get around) I always wanted to catch a Roosterfish.
@@Bsprecksfishing No,from Delaware where I live on the coast. I stayed in El Salvador for two months. All to go surfing. I was 20. I'm 68 now. It took a week down and a week back. Stopped at a lot of the ruins.
enjoy. great time of year for a warm sunny vacation!
Sure is! Thanks for watching!

We loved Hyatt Ziva and it is in such a good spot. The public beach has fishing access along it. There’s a jetty too
Great content. Love it ❤. Did you try fishing in the light house? Or thats prohibited to fish?
The first scene where I catch the horse eye jack was by the lighthouse, but then a guard came out and told me I couldn’t fish there
I haven’t been to Mexico since 07 how is it down there
Cancun was very nice, Didn’t really leave the resort at all

Heading to Hyatt Ziva over new years. Going to fish, did you have any issues either hotel or authorities not letting you fish?

Did you try fishing the lighthouse?
@@jasonsmolarchuk3611 yeah I was standing on the rocks by the lighthouse casting toward the swimming area
I’m going to the Hyatt ziva over Christmas and wanted to fish from shore within walking distance from the hotel I was planning on bringing some sabikis and a light tackle setup any suggestions?
Yeah, light tackle, sabiki rigs, small tins and epoxies too. Let me know if you have any other questions!

@@niconyc2889 fishing is allowed on the public beach behind the hotel
Do you have any idea based off of your experience there what I could catch on sabikis or maybe paddletails
wow great video
Thank you! It was a great time!
Have fun!
Thanks for watching!

@@seanntomas3815 what species you done best w this past week?
White perch in South shore canals. And nice trout at connetquot river.
Great vid. Quick question, did you pack your lures in a carry on by chance?
No I checked them, I don’t think they allow anything with hooks
@@Bsprecksfishing they do but they are very vague with their rule. It states large fishing hooks have to be checked but small ones that don’t pose a security risk can be in the carry on. They don’t actually give measurements though which is annoying.
@@BaldyFade ah I see, but pliers probably aren’t allowed also
@@Bsprecksfishing yeah I’m not taking the chance with any of my gear in the carry on, just figured I’d check with you first.
@@BaldyFade haha same
I get around (get around, 'round, 'round, I get around)
From town to town (get around, 'round, 'round, I get around)
