I've fished that area for over 40 years, so I can tell you that there are MONSTER black drum in those waters. That blue crab you caught would be a fantastic bait to get one of those. Best fishing is at night. That's when the big boys come out to play. Tight lines! ❤
i legit just fished there yesterday and a big monster drum ran after my paddle tail. if i didnt pull it out of the water before i noticed it, it would of been awsome fight
There is a long, probably over a mile, walking/park area near Manatee Memorial hospital. Free parking along the street. I just found a parking spot and walked over and started fishing!
My pleasure. Yellowtail snapper are a lot fun to catch, they are also great eating. You can cook them whole, or fillet them. Number 1 recommendation for cooking yellowtail is the less you put on it the better it will be. Let the natural tender flavor of yellowtail be enjoyed on its own. Happy fishing from a 39 yr old native of Bradenton.

Looks like you were near the hospital lol
Literally across the street
@@OGfishingtexas Fished there quite a few times. Lot of whitefish and hardheads
Haven't watched the video yet but if I had to guess knowing that River, probably stingrays and catfish
Well watch it already!! We did catch more than stingrays and catfish! Sub too plz!
Where do you fishing at on this video

@@OGfishingtexas It's called riverwalk. I go here all the time :)
@@kiwi3835 It is a cool spot!
Yellowtail snapper are in fact delicious. However, that grunting fish was actually a jack crevalle. Much less table-worthy.
I thought it was a Jack just couldn't tell!
Lmao that's a jack crevalle. Not snapper
You are supposed to say “There’s a fish”! Not THATS a fish
That's a yellow tail snapper.
Thanks David! A new species for the list!

@@naturalaspired butter, salt, pepper and garlic with maybe an onion round on top!
Jack crevelle, really fun to catch but not great to eat. Definitely not a yellow tail snapper lol
@@mattyvio1985 exactly! But.... they actually are good to eat. Just take care of the meat. Reputation of being trash fish but try as ceviche
