There should be some rule about that. I had one at the cape canal that was an inch short of being a keeper, and it had inhaled my 5oz jig. I got in the water with the thing, and tried like hell with pliers to get the jig out. I wasnt able to get it out, and all the Cape bounty police (the locals) were telling me (aggressively) to just cut the line and let it go. Theres no way that fish lived, and if something else ate it now they may have a 5oz jig in em. I shouldve just kept and ate the thing
Cool video at first. But than you have to go catching shorts on live bait? Good advice not ripping the hook out of the gut hooked fish, but it is going to die anyway. The urban legend about "the hook dissolving in no time" is BS. "Catch and release" is currently responsible for 50% of striped bass mortality. When the top water bite dies down, next time just go home.
Just as easy to foul hook or gut hook a fish on top water. I’m very big on conservation but the idea that you shouldn’t fish with live bait is silly. Fishing with circle hooks, making the fight as short as possible and proper fish handling brings mortality way down.
awsome talking to you at the providence fishing show we have the blue pair in buzzards bay
Always a good sign when youre on the same spot as Brian. Great video!
Capt Brian is the man! He put me on a 13+ lb blackfish this past fall.
Coming from a NYer, one of the best boston/new england accents I've ever heard besides Cheech's

Those are open ocean hunting stripers. They’re the olympic athletes of Striped Bass! They move so fast
Nice old video right before the new season starts
The right kind of Radar will find the birds.
Bail open when waiting for a strike while live lining, or closed?
What rod power shoul i use?
Without birds and scanner these guys would be lost. Doesn’t take much skill when you and group of buddies are tag teaming stripers with electronics.
A lotta' jibber-jabber jargon.
Please stop blowing wind!!! Amateur fishing😅
