Great job with the different camera angles, and showing the rods movement, but also having a direct view of the waves. Felt like I was the one fishing from my desktop lol
Yes, I am watching your video to learn the wise ways, sitting on the beach, with two lines in the water. Didn’t see the name until about half way through but knew that voice immediately!
Totally not the intent of your video, but seeing the island tackle floats reminds me I need to go pick some up. I left a bag with miscellaneous gear on Lex's boat and I'm headed to FF tomorrow, lol. Great stuff dude, surf stuff from you is always appreciated
Griffin is such a cool dog! I would love to take my Abby beach fishing with me but I know she wouldn’t stick around me when there is so much to explore.
Hey dude, good luck. We have had multiple hurricanes since this video and the bars are jacked up right now. Your guess is as good as mine - I haven't been.
I stumbled across your channel this morning and man i think ive watch 15 videos so far. Youve got a sub from me and ill continue watching. Maybe ill run into you on a beach or at a ramp one day. Good luck and tight lines buddy.
I struggled this year because I guessed the storm filled in the holes and I couldn't find sand bars, it made good surfing waves but I was told the red drum ran straight into the sounds and didn't hang around the surf long at all. Have you heard anything about why the drum fishing wasn't as good as years past. I understand it was good for a couple of weeks but didn't last.

Thank you for the comment. I can't really speak from experience because Wilmington isn't known for the drum like the islands are up near Morehead or Hatteras. We catch them occasionally but we don't have the 5-10 fish nights like they do up there.
went down to the beach to grab some sand fleas couple of days ago, came up empty, the few I found were way too small. Could have been my timing, tide was about 1/2 way out could have been because I was at the busiest section of WB even though it was 15 min before sunrise. any tips on getting some good live ones?
thanks for the rig breakdown - thats helps us poor folks alot
Lol. I’m not gonna buy a $5 rig when I can make it for a dollar. I’m also those poor folks.
What a great way to spend the day! Thanks for bringing us along
I appreciate you watching! Thank you.

Thank you buddy. It was a challenge because I am still getting use to this new neck mount. I'm glad you were able to enjoy it.
Awesome! I love surf fishing! I’ll be back out on the beach come Monday! Griff is a cool dude!
They been wearing the Pompano out your way...
@@ericwilliamsfishing yes sir, hopefully it stays that way!!

That’s really funny. Hey girl! Haha.
Good stuff man! Don’t get to surf fish but it’s a blast when you get out of the rays and sharks lol
Lol. Too bad we can’t tell when that’s going to be 😂
Your videos are always 🙌🏼
I’m thankful you keep coming back!
Super top fishing👍🎣
Thanks for watching!
Love the videos u make man keep up the good work.!
Thanks buddy. I appreciate it.

Yeah man. I bought all of the colors and make my own rigs exactly like they sell. It’s the way to go for affordability. Good luck tomorrow dude!
It’s good to see some fishing off the NC cost.
Thanks for checking out the videos. It’s a grind but we do have some incredible fishing when the stars align.
Great video! Where in NC where you fishing?
This is Wilmington NC. Thanks so much for watching!
Great channel! 🐟
Thanks so much buddy. Glad to have you.
Griffin is such a cool dog! I would love to take my Abby beach fishing with me but I know she wouldn’t stick around me when there is so much to explore.
What you don’t see is me yelling for him non stop, all day. Lol.
@@ericwilliamsfishing at least he comes back , I wouldn’t be able to fish because I’d be chasing her all day.
@@wadeirwin7003 He never goes too far. His nose does get him in trouble though.
@@ericwilliamsfishing every dog’s downfall🤣
Headed to Kure beach next week. Supposed to turn off cold. Where and what would you suggest? If you are down that way, I hate fishing alone.

Thanks so much for letting me know. That’s really nice of you. I’m glad you liked the first one enough for another 14 🤙
How far out in the surf do you prefer to fish? Before the breakers, after?
I usually fish around high tide so it ranges from just off the beach to the first bar.
Do you put your bait just short of the breakers?
Yep and stagger/work my way into the beach.
I thought there was a 2 rod limit when fishing NC surf, or did they change the rod limit.
I'm not aware of any limits and I have had rangers go by me 100 times.
Whiting (Va. Mullet) rule ! The BEST eating 'surf zone fish'. 💯
I agree other than pompano. It deserves mention. Haha.

Go early and late to get them. We have struck out during the middle of the day.
@@ericwilliamsfishing thanks, not done much bottom fishing the past week, good sized Spanish are back in tight and they have been hard to pass up
@@floatinflyinandfishing You gotta catch them when you can...
what nc beach were you at? im headed to duck very soon
I’m in Wilmington NC. Fishing should be good in Duck right now too.
@@ericwilliamsfishing awesome
natural fishing, i like it. so good video...
Thank you buddy.
What rods you using?
I just switched from random rods to Okuma Rockaways.
I love surf fishing the nc coast!
It's a good time. Tough but fun when everything lines up.
