100% agree. Say it louder for the people in the back 🤙🏽🔥
Yeeeeeewwww yes sir🔥🔥
Started Shark fishing in NSW Australia this month, only just started but I love it, your guys videos have greatly helped.
SA 🤙 getting into the big stuff myself
The absolute best shark fishing video on the web...... THANKS !!
Glad you enjoyed it!! New videos out about how to get into shark fishing!!
In-depth ass video, answered all my questions and gave me extra info raw ash
Best video I’ve seen on Utube re shark fishing. I’m an old man who’s been salt water fishing for over 50 years. I kayak my baits and teach my children to beach shark fish. The info in this video is dead on.
I keep watching this video again and again. Y’all should have a 1-2 hr podcast about how to shark fishing
Cool video i like how much respect you show for the animals
"Crackhead blacktips" is so accurate 😂
Great video, wish this was out when I was first getting into it!!
Best words we could think of 🤣🤣 glad you enjoyed it the learning curve can be tough
What. . . . Thank y'all so much for going over little and big things for us. Very true everyone has different techniques but it's great to cover everything from y'alls prospective. Very helpful. Great video as always. Keep them coming gus.
Hey!! I'm glad you enjoyed it and got something out of it!!
Love yalls channel, thanks for all the advice! Brand new to shark fishing, all I own is bass fishing gear. Caught my first shark ever on vacation this year. Tiny 3 foot Atlantic Sharpnose, but I couldn't be more thrilled. Now I'm hooked for life! Can't wait to get my hands on many more in the future!
Not a salt water fisher anymore but very interesting to watch. Curious about the knot on leeder to braid but sure its covered elsewhere. Thanks guys!
Hey!! We use a single uni!
Been watching lot of videos since my two day visit to Clearwater Florida. My First piece to get was a Penn Spinfisher 10500. Next will be the rod and I talk to one of the guys from Team Hard life and he put me onto the Tackle Industries 9ft XXH 80#-150# rod. This will be my first Saltwater setup I just hope I'm on the right track for some big sharks at least over 3 foot.
Good luck, brotha! Hope you get some giants!!
Ive fished (not all mine) spinners of all sizes, sennators 6/0 9/0 12/0 14/0 16/0, single and 2 speed 50s, 50w, 80, 80w 130 over the last 5 years. The main difference in reels is the amount of effort it takes to do something, and how it takes the abuse of doing these things. 50s, and 50ws are a lot weaker and take a lot more ware when fished the same as 80s-130reels. When you drop far the performance of a reel goes down in every aspect except drag. Your retrieve ratio gets greatly reduced when bombing small reels because of the spool shrinking, this slows your retrieve and makes you work more. You can bomb a 130 a 1000 yds and barely take the spool down with good braid. I fish with more confidence with my 80s and 130 then when I had 50s. But that is for how I fish now. Perfect introductory combo to big gear is a graphite 50 or 50w and a 50+# rod and 130 -150lb braid light strong and makes fun of all fish and not super expensive. A 80w combo is the perfect combo for lbsf shark fishing to do it all, and the trx 80w is said to be the best reel for lbsf because of size and power since a 130 is to much reel for most people and most fish.
Great knowledge here! Thanks for sharing!!
Great info, I'm just running a 9/0 right now. Hoping to add a 50 or 80 soon
@@DogCatpets792 a 9/0 is a good starter real also. Can handle most fish to 9ft
Hey Hey
Really good stuff. Awesome how to video. So much to learn, and all need take time to understand the fish, and how easy they can die.
Your instruction is great.
Blessings
GPJ
It's a very detailed game like many others!
One of the best bang for the buck surf rods out there right now is the ugly stick big water I’ve found that rod really good when I go to California I’ve caught 30+ lb rays and 30+ sharks and it works amazing I have it paired up with a Penn pursuit 10000
Thats definitely a great recommendation! 👍
Really helpful. I’m probably going to be in Pensacola next Friday and hopefully I will be able to get one. I’ve hooked a few before but really didn’t have the right gear
Well we are excited to here about your first success trip!! 🙌🙌
@@GulfCoastNation hopefully. I’ve got a Daiwa BG 8000 with 400 yards of 80lb braid. I need to get a rod for it when I get down there. Also, I bought a Sea striker bill fisher 30-80 lb 5’6” rod in Navarre when I was there late November ( I live in north ms). I wish I would have gotten something longer but it’s a nice rod and it’s extremely stout. What type of reel would you get for it? I’m thinking Avet 30 or 50w
@@theoutdoorglockguy go with the 50w! Slap it with 130 braid from Tight line braid. Then a short 150 mono topshot! Go for the 600 yard spool of braid. Put it all on there!
@@GulfCoastNation only 600 yards of 130 lb?
@@theoutdoorglockguy best case is grab the 1250 yard spool and slap it all on there! That's what we do!
Great video. Hoping to get a trip that way soon.
Love it! See you then!
I totally agree that having a shark die on you is horrible but I don't know if I would tell someone that the reel they like to fish with or can afford is bad or incorrect for their fishing. I personally do have 80Ws but I wouldn't tell someone they should be using a certain type of reel.
And if you do read this how far do you bomb your baits out? I'm sending it around half a spool down in south Florida but I manage to mostly get blacktips. Thanks and keep it up you definitely deserve more views and subs! 🤘🔥🔥
We understand where you are coming from but irresponsible shark fishing has lead to the regulations we now face in FL. One day it could lead to more county bans on shark fishing. Many if these issues arise from dead sharks via improper gear or too long of fights. We are willing to suggest not using senators for big game sharks and not using low drag to make sure the sport stays alive. Some truths are easier than others to spread.
And as far as bait drops go. In south FL we look do around 250-300 paddle strokes in the kayak! "Half spool" would be hard to know how far that is. We don't know what your reel is lined with or how much.
Appreciate the support to the channel brotha, we will keep it coming and do our best to keep improving content for you!
Also appreciate these questions
It is always interesting to see how other countries fish. Here in South Africa it is totally different. I watch your videos tackling the beasts and think.......geez here evetone will laugh at you using that tackle. Keep it up and my your channel grow
What kinda equipment do y’all use then?
Love the video guys, can’t wait to do it myself
Yes sir!!🙌
I've said it before. You guys rock
We appreciate the support sooo much!!
Great explanation of your equipment and methods. I appreciate your excitement for fishing!!! Great video!
We love it for sure!! Glad you found it helpful!
My Penn wrath 8000 takes up to 80pound braid
Guy on UA-cam showed you can catch sailfish on it and tuna so that a start for me
It’s on 13 foot pole caught 3.5 foot black tip handled it easy
I’m running 30 pound test mono on it but I’m switching to 70pound braid when I cast it my spool is half gone so I’m getting it out there
Great knowledge guys
You guys are awesome explaining everything
Going to check out the gear
Heck yeah man!! Keep after it 💪💪
Check out the big ass shark I got on a penn 7500 with 80lb braid took 1 hr to get in
@@ktmdays cut that fight time down brotha! 1hr is too long!
@@GulfCoastNation I know I need to get better rod and reel I'm in venice Florida untill end of April where u guys from
@@GulfCoastNation just bought a boat robalo 160 mackerel going crazy in venice and then chum them for sharks
Used a drone for shark fishing last week...in Navarre...very satisfying
I started out with a Penn battle dc 8000 and was catching 5-6’6 bulls and now I have a Penn international 50
Love your guys videos keep up catching those big sharks
I am from South Africa we don't really get the 80 size reels here we use 50 wide and we have hooked and landed some massive shark on them but I see your Rods and everything is much different than our using 14 ft rods because the areas we fishing is very Rocky and sometimes the nearest beach is 2 miles away so takes long to land them have to walk them to the beach there is a couple of videos on my UA-cam channel of the areas that we fish in
but good job on your shark fishing hope to see more videos I love the instruction videos as well🦈🦈🦈
Glad you enjoy the videos! We know a decent amount about yalls area and the challenges that come with it!! Keep fishing hard, would love to make it over that way one day!
@@GulfCoastNation it would be awesome to have you guys here by us fishing our Waters we do get 10 food duskys and big tigers and big bull shark but keep up the great work with the videos and with the sharks🦈🦈
@@ivanlandsharks3148 one day 🙌 thanks so much for the support!!
Good information and thanks for sharing ✅💥
Glad you enjoyed it🙌🔥
nice video bro. love u for this one
So when you say the bigger sharks are in South Florida? Where are you guys talking? Especially from the beach, i know the keys can be pretty tough to fish from the beach because its so shallow…
I just ordered the Penn international Liberty edition (only 1000 made I think) I use mostly avets so was wondering what you guys think of internationals
Depends on the model for sure! But they are good reels, have seen those limited editions and they look clean!slap it with 130 or 150 braid and shirt toppy. Set that drag right and get after it!
Jeff has the best line in the game right now
But i just realized all the gear is cali Texas and Florida is where everything is from😂
Jeff at tight lines is running the braid game!
Got a hammerhead at sharkeys peir last April had to bring it to the beach 100 dollar pole
On the low!
Great, informative vid, l thought you called the name of the spinning reel "VG" right? l can't find it on line...
Did you hear avets prices are going up. A avet exw 80/2 is going to be 829 instead of 750
We had heard about them raising their prices! Get em quick
2:25, i didnt do that, hahahaha i went big right off the bat and all honesty i wished i didn't spend the 1500$ on a rod and reel... sharks here in texas i dont think ill ever need this for haha. I guess if I ever hooked a monster hammer but the most im comfortable going out for now is 400yds
i have 2 spinfisher 10500s and i think they can handle a 6 footer to be honest
4:46 mannn you look so much better now! no offense at all!
i tie myself off to a truck lol
once again a fantastic video!!!!
make sure you check your state laws for what fish your able to use as bait in your state.
Hey! That's true! Proper angler a big spinner can handle a good size shark if it's the right species!! Super fun as well!!
Haha yes Dylan needed the hair cut 🤣
Where I am I can bomb 50ws, we get big tigers here (had an 11 footer landed in 30 mins on a mak 30w) there isn't really a threat of hammers here, I've seen hammers here but they are incredibly rare, but on the very rare chance of me hooking up to a hammer I think I'm just going to go with an 80 standard or 80w depending on the color I find just need rod recommendations
Another great tip video
Thanks so much Mr. Glenn
You guys have a video on how you rig your baits with rubber bands?
Yes sir
@@GulfCoastNation love watching your guys videos, Definitely has helped me alot as well as Yaking With Jak.
Can’t wait till the SC mullet run those spinners are gonna be nutsssssss
First comment too
Yes sir! Yall get on em! Good luck!🙌🔥
@@GulfCoastNation thanks 🙏🏾 by this summer I’ll have my go pro drone and my 80w
@@843Landbased heck yeah man!! Enjoy the process!!
@@843Landbased I fish S.C. man just got my Mak 80W what part you fish in?
@@CaptainNubbz Beaufort
Y’all should do east coast
I notice fishing on any beach in Delaware I caught 6 different species on eel chunks , whole eel , live eel other baits not much
What’s your take on eel ? Eels hit here in Delaware
We have never used eel for shark bait here! Never even heard of it before!
@@GulfCoastNation that's nearly all we use in Australia, eel and sometimes sting ray or skate.
I'm going to try carp soon as well, I have no doubts it'll work haha
Lots of great info guys. A topic I don't hear talked about much is hook set. How long to let them eat. I see many set too early. I do it from time to time. Size and kind of bait being my factor. Coming from bass fishing. I use to say. Fish don't have hands. 😆
Thats a topic we plan to cover. Trying to get some in the feild film to go along and cover a lot of bases!
First i love this video lots of great info.
Second i have a question. In a comment yall say "250-300 paddle strokes". Is that a 1,2 =1 stroke or single stroke to one side. And if going off of strokes approximately how many yards is 250 paddle strokes?
You just gotta figure out what works for your beach. 250 paddles is gonna be a different distance for everyone in every different kayak with every different paddle. It’s all about knowing the layout of your beach and where the sandbars are. As a good rule of thumb I drop my short bait as soon as I can’t touch the bottom with my paddle. Some places it’s 50 yards others it’s 300. Sharks swim everywhere and further doesn’t always mean bigger. Just don’t go further than half your spool and you’ll be fine.
Fellas, have you seen or maybe hooked into any GW'Sharks? I know they are protected and rightly so, but you can't tell a fish not to take your bait can ya, was curious guys as some academic's say they are not in Florida waters, yet there have been fatal attacks in and around the waters of Florida, your input would be much appreciated, all the best fellas, keep up the good work.👍🏴
I want to keep it for my brother to eat when i catch one i catch drums and Gar nothing i er three days old bait
I use a 30 sized International with 100 pound braid idk I think I went to heavy on the line
Great video 👌🦈
Thanks brotha!
@@GulfCoastNation anytime man👍👍
What part of Florida are yall in I'd be interested in going fishing with yall a couple times
Do u need weight?? For getting a shark
Hey guys who makes those weights? We make them like that here for Texas. 4 inches of copper 3/4 ID pipe and 6 gauge copper wire or 1/8th stainless tig is roughly over 1 lb.
What’s wrong with using a penn senator? Serious question
Are you guys still catching smaller sharks between 1st and 2nd sandbar in winter or do you have to take everything out to deeper water?
Sandbars are around thick as of lately! But they are close and further out too haha. Spinners are here too!
What would y’all recommend for LBSF around the gulf coast Galveston area. I’ve heard people say that 50ws can handle anything you’ll hook down here, but I’ve seen 13ft hammers and tiger caught just a couple hours south in corpus
Hey fellas what brand and model is that spinning rod you showed with the Cabo reel ?
Super Great video GCN 👍 👍 👍 👍 👍
Thank yall for the content and info
Thanks, glad yall enjoyed it!
Yall use tightline? Do you love it? I just ordered a bunch
I’m getting an avet exw 50. I live on the east coast of florida. Do you think it’ll work for the bigger side of shark? I don’t wanna kill any big shark from reeling it too long.
Yall ever heard of ron Richmond?, he use to shark fish solo
There is a good amount of guys that do. Not saying it isn't possible just not a good idea for beginners
And 60+. He isnt fishing anymore after that 13ft tiger in Nov.
Actually hes back this year and started off texas shark rodeo with a freaking Mako off PINS
Do you remove barb from hooks or flatten them or just leave barbs on?
What’s the name of the solo big shark fishing video ?
ua-cam.com/video/SwV6TgZjsxc/v-deo.html
Would a good beginner reel for larger sharks be a penn senator 14/0
Would look for the 50w size reels! 2 speed and better drag and gearing!
@@GulfCoastNation I was also wondering if #19 wire is better than 800 lb cable
@@zachwilliamson634 we would suggest cable!!
@@GulfCoastNation thank you so much for taking time out of your day to respond with your advice
@@zachwilliamson634 of course!!
Hold up what's wrong with the penn senator?
Fantastic ambassadors for the sport 💪
Appreciate the kind words brotha 🙏
what blank its that orange rod?
I posted almost this exact video 4 days ago (but more for the 4-6ft blacktips) great minds think a like
Heck ya!
It sounded like you maybe don’t like Penn Senators. Can I ask why? I see people suggesting Senator setups all the time, I’m even shopping around for a used setup. But if it’s not good, I’d really like to know why.
Poor poor poor internals. Way to low of drag and they have a horrible low speed.
All that stuff means long fight times and that means big sharks die using senators
@@GulfCoastNation ok that makes sense. Thanks for explaining!
what about trx 50w
Got a shark on my u tube dont know what kind I'm in Florida took me 1hr to get it in had a penn 7500 reel to small I know had another one 2hrs broke my line had 80lb braid with 130 lb wire then today had one bite my 130lb wire in half wtf
Up that wire brotha!!
@@GulfCoastNation to what I dont know the hay wire twist I got crimps
@@ktmdays don't crimp wire!
@@GulfCoastNation Malon 130lb what is it cabel it's not the hay wire kind
You almost lost me when you didn't say jack crevalle I've caught many sharks on them they come in all sizes and catch multiple species
Exw 57
Trx 80 at strike
Immediately you are wrong. Love your videos, but if you are targeting sharks from shore you need at least 80lb test line in florida. Not 50. That is the law. If you’re a beginner, take the shark fishing course FIRST, and then do your own research.
Hay what's wrong with a Penn senit.... some of us can't afford much better
Save up! Senators vs big hammers end badly! We totally get budget setups BUT if you fish areas with giants that will overpower those reels. Then the responsible thing is to not use those reels in those areas!
Sennators don’t have a lot of drag. So if u get a huge shark, the fight will be super long and kill the shark.
