It has been a slow start to the pomp run for me. Yesterday was a pompano sit on your butt instead of a pompano run. Hopefully it will pick up soon….. Great tip on using the rod trick as a strike indicator. I’ll give that a try this week. Great vid Sean.
New Subscriber from south Texas, nice catch, tight lines my friend, thanks for the tip 🤙 your area of the coast is so beautiful the sand is so white and the water looks amazing…
Yeah, that's a smart tip! I have yet to catch a pomp, but it's on the list. I need to get out and do some beach fishing! Love watching your vids, i've been learning a lot.
Great video and fishing. Just an observation and suggestion - we don't have Pompanos in the Pacific Northwest. Closest we get is probably the Red-tail Surf Perch. Similar sized, maybe a bit smaller. But one thing we like to do to preserve the meat and flavor of the fish is to cut the gills or tear them BEFORE putting it in the cooler. It helps to bleed the fish, letting it pump most of it's blood out. The difference in quality of the meat and flavor is worth it. I would do this in a bucket of water, so you don't mess up your cooler.
@@TheLawlessTide Good to hear. I thought you might, just seen so many vids lately where they throw their catch right in the cooler. I didn't know if that was a thing there or what. But I figured I would mention it to get prepared for when I go back down there.
I really like the intro that was some cool drone footage! Have you ever seen a shuffle rake? Larry finch makes them you use your feet to kick up the fleas as the tide surges out. Works really well. Haven't been fishing much lately but I waded and gigged tonight got my limit in flounder with one 24" fatty. So I was thrilled going to have a fish fry tomorow.
@@TheLawlessTide thanks man! Have you done any gigging? If not you've gotta give it a try. It's more fun to wade then gig out of a boat. You get immersed in it way more.
@@TheLawlessTide well I finally caught some Pompano for the first time and I have been trying since last year when I was here for two weeks, but two days ago I caught four and today I caught six and a 32 inch Red Drum and two other thin long fish I didn't recognize all sand fleas alone and no beads or floats or nothing at Inlet Beach via Orange Street.
I noticed you're using what I call a "spunik" weight. Do you prefer those over a pyramid? Or was the current so bad you need that weight to dig in? Your videos bring back many memories' of surf fishing the OBX for me. Really enjoy them.
We are going to be at carrabella beach the first week of june.could you give us some pointers in surf fishing and what we would be fishing for that time of year?
In live in Crestview FL and like to fish inshore saltwater but I am curious about the fish bites sand flea. Does that stuff really work, and are the jetties a good place to catch good fish? Thanks and I just subscribed.
Thanks for subscribing, and yes they really work, the science behind it is fascinating. Jetties are always a good place to fish anytime of the year, they always seem to have some kind of fish on them.
Hello John I’m from South Texas and do a lot of surf fishing and I had the same question does fish bite really work and how it looks like gum lol. I recently was given a pack by a good friend to try and to my surprise it really works, I have caught whiting and sand trout so far on them. now with the price of live shrimp going up a pack of pink color shrimp bite cost around $5 at Walmart
I can’t stand you guys. You go out there catching beautiful Gods creatures and you show absolutely no sympathy. Damn you fisherman. Why go by yourself and not invite me to go along with you so I can catch my share? Over someone’s head in 3-2-1…
Respect for letting that one pomp go! Your actions in your videos preach ethical fishing dude! We waiting on that pompano gear video Sean!!
Thanks man. Video drops tonight at 6pm
That's awesome, glad you hung tough. This years June grass has been horrible for sure. Congrats!
Respect how you keep it real Sean. Some days they just won't turn on. Greatly appreciate the tip also!
Thanks John, I wouldn't make many videos if it was only days I catch a lot of fish, lol.
Awesome intro! The HD quality on this video is amazing. I know you are looking forward to the coming season.
Thanks Jack, appreciate it! And yes I'm very excited!
Love this time of the year. Great video
Thanks bud!

Thanks Bryan. It will turn around soon for sure.
Thanks for the slack line idea.
No problem!
I have a heck of a time seeing my line, Great tip at the end. Thanks for that!!!
Sure thing, just passing along what others taught me.
Great tip. I hadn't thought of that before.
Keep up the great work!
Thanks Jerry!

Thanks, yeah the pomp's are about to explode.
@@TheLawlessTide I'm seeing people catch them here and there around my area (PCB/PC). But I need to just get out there and see what I can find!

Oh yeah, i always bleed my fish that i am keeping. Shrinks the bloodline and makes for a milder flavor.

@earllarson7289 you gotta be careful showing bleeding the fish if you are monetized, it'can get you flagged.
5:15 😉 Don't ya just hate it when people interrupt your fishing??? 🤣
😂😂😂
Im so exiced I'm making hubby take me surf fishing the spring for pomp. Probably Flagler Beach
Awesome, good luck!

Nice spot and view and good fishing, thumbs up to you,👍🎣🐟🌊💦

Thanks
Can’t wait for the 2023 run
Its coming soon!
Good video. Good tip. Thanks.
Thanks for watching!
Great video again Pompano Slayer.
Thanks Johnny!

Thanks, I prefer sputniks for multiple reasons, one is I think they help setting the hook with the circle hooks on my pomp rigs.
I got my bay baits sand flea rake and fish bites talked with Evan on kayak fishing tour
You are set then!!!
Other than old line and no weights that don’t roll with tide , get to know the tides and next real surf rods yeah getting a little closer
🤘🏻😎🤘🏻
You know it awesome stuff dude
Thanks!
Great video love to see it 🔥
Thanks Terrence!
We are going to be at carrabella beach the first week of june.could you give us some pointers in surf fishing and what we would be fishing for that time of year?
Same tactics as this video, looking for pomps, reds and black drum. You could also use cut or whole baits for bull reds or small sharks.
@@TheLawlessTide ok, sounds good
Nice work man!
Thanks!
I need to know how to do this!
Trust me if I can do it anyone can.!

@@TheLawlessTide I just used the crab scent fish bite last weekend at the Port Mansfield channel in TX and caught a nice size whiting
Where u parking to get the beach to yourself like that?
Long long walk, lol.
first time I've seen someone get bit by a pompano. lol
I think he finned me😂
Is the beach you fishing public access or private?
Its public access but i was fishing in front of private property.
Thanks for the tip. Were you by Destin or further along 30A?
30A
@@TheLawlessTide I'm heading down there in a few days, any tips? Just trying to catch anything that swims.
@@VaLULrant if you are fishing the beach then I would use Fishbites, live sand fleas and fresh dead shrimp.
First time I’ve watched, great vid! What rods/reels do you use for pompano?
Thanks Jacob, shimano speedmaster 10' medium power.
👍👍👍
Has anybody ever told you that you look like Josh Brolin? Lol
