Day 2 spot 2 is fire if you get lucky like you did. Must have been a week day because that sandbar is always poppn and w kids usually jumping off the bulk head. Nice vid!
Another great video! It took me forever to figure out where the ‘wall’ was on Day 2 spot 2, but I finally found it on Google Earth. I usually turn left on my boat heading toward S. Creek before going down that channel, but I’ll have to try it during high tide next time. You’re welcome to join me! I have a 16’ 2002 Hewes. It was fun figuring out all the spots. I’ve been to all of them, except the wall,on my boat and during high tide. ( I hate to admit it, but when I was first fishing on my boat, I got stuck at one of the spots during low tide-it was a long day!)
Thanks brother! But yeah, google earth is such an amazing tool to find fishing spots. I’ve always seen the wall while on a boat, but finally took the effort to find it on foot. Pretty cool place💯. But you’re not joking about that area at low tide. I’ve fished it so many times, from my own boats/friends boats, and low tide is always sketchy af. Seems like the channels are always changing too😓 Have gotten out and pushed boats countless number of times lol. I even had to get rescued once in my gheenoe😅😂
@@The_Florida_Fishing_Channel man… biggest snook I ever caught was maybe around 15” lol. I would def struggle to find anything bigger. Would like to try though. I just have no clue where to go🤦♂️
Earlier my pops was watching your videos and told me about it so I subscribed! Me and a buddy fished Matanzas inlet with live finger mullet early morning incoming tide and a little bit of outgoing didn’t even get a single bite. But i’ll have to try some of these spots for land based fishing! Great videos so far man keep up the awesome work!
really enjoying your videos man, I lived my adolescent years in Jacksonville and jax beach. I now reside in Mexico and well I haven't really ever stopped fishing and wasn't planning on it when I got her and well here we are, SENDING IT!!!
new to the channel bro... But I'm loving the Content!!!... I was born and Raised right here in Jacksonville It's so cool to see somebody Fishing the spots I grew up at.... But actually catching fish lol.... Keep the 🔥🔥🔥 Content coming my man.
Really appreciate man!! I basically grew up here too. Arlington middle, TP graduate. Left for a few years to Miami but found my way back. Amazing fishery we have!
You can keep fiddler crabs alive for at least a week. A little sea water on the bottom and put a little food in for them. I've even used animal crackers. 🙂
Yeah, I’ve done that. But I knew i wouldn’t be getting back out to fish anytime soon, particularly for Sheeps. So it was their lucky day, they were set free lol
Mud minnows are nor that big, if you plan to release fish you should set the hook much sooner. I have fished that area, it's good for flounder. Enjoyed the video
Thank you! Def a mud minnow lol. That’s all they sell at Browns. But Yeah, I should’ve set the hook sooner. Just a lot of times they only take half the minnow into their mouth, especially a bigger one. If I was keeping, I would’ve counted to 10😅. That guy was super hungry I guess.
@VISUAL-LY it happens. I only use artificial these days, and I set the hook almost immediately. 3 weeks ago I caught a 27 inch flounder, weighed 8.5 pounds, I'm sold on artis for flounder.
@@VISUAL-LY day 1 spot 1 that little bridge on the Huguenot side of Nassau holds a lot of awesome memories with the boys it's cool to see you try your luck out there.
@@matthewbruce5682 Wish I had better luck. I for sure was expecting to catch some reds and trout when I was filming with the drone. Just an off day I guess🤷♂️
Should try a1a out by the nas mayport and the ferry. Theres a little beach there thats pretty good. Shrimp and mullet work best. Caught a few flounder with a spoon as well. Put a leader and 1-2oz weight and let it sit. That my go to spot.
Another great video in this series, well done. Question on shore fishing vs kayak. Do you change up the spots you target to cast and/or any changes to your retrieve? I know you favor the gulp on a jig head, with a kinda twitch, twitch reel retrieve most of the time. Seems quite effective.
Thank you! But yeah, I really fish the same areas most of the time. We have so much of it here. Shallow water creeks, rarely over 15ft deep or so. So the basic retrieve I use all the time works everywhere. Except sometimes strong currents or wind can affect the retrieve. In that case, I just use a slightly heavier weight/jighead to get the bait down. The main goal overall, be in contact with the bottom or very near the bottom.
@@Ritchie-d2j yeah, it looks like a tag but I think it’s actually a parasite. They’re pretty common and they look similar to a tag. I’ve seen them a bunch of times
Anywhere off hecksher. Depending on tide, moon phase, what bait you’re using, your setup/rig. Any place can be good, if you know what you’re doing for that particular spot
It's really not about the bait, color, size, etc for flounder. It's guessing where they like to lay depending on the water movement, tide, depth, location, etc. Everywhere is different. If you get any bait near them, they'll eat it. That being said, I like any natural color baits with some sort of wobbly tail. Good luck out there!
I've fished that wall on day 2, spot 2, from my Jon boat, but never knew how to get to it by land. Looks like a hike! Great video, but when is Rich going to eat that hot chip? 🔥
🤣🤣Rich is trying to hide! That wall is definitely cool. Wish I wasn’t there at low tide. Seems like it would hold some sheepshead at higher water. Ever try?
@@VISUAL-LY Not for sheepshead, but a mud minnow under a float around those oyster beds are trout candy. Take some fids with you next time, and let's find out!
Tie a 3/16 oz eyestrike trouteye jighead straight to your line/leader. No swivel, weights or anything else. Hook your mud minnow through both lips, starting from the bottom lip and up through the top. Cast it out and let it sit or slowly retrieve. Good luck!
Generally, best tides for the creeks in our area are last few hours of outgoing tide and first couple hours of incoming tide. That's especially true if you're targeting redfish & flounder. But there are so many other factors, that's just in-general. So difficult to figure out where the fish are at different tide stages. But as long as the water is moving, they should be feeding. Just gotta find them
@@VISUAL-LY Awe man hate to hear that watching your videos brings back many memories 30 plus years ago fishing out on Hecksher drive keep up the videos I enjoy them!
Hello V , I realize ur aim was CPR or ( catch n release ) but if u allow 5 seconds for the flounder to ‘catch n swallow’ the mudminnow well, that method is self defeating,,, why not just set the hook promptly after u get the first ‘thump’ ( Just Sayin ) & of course l commend u greatly to be a Sportsman practicing = CPR ,,, GB You 🐟🕊️✨
You’re totally right, just sometimes when struggling to catch fish, I have to make sure it has it in its mouth all the way since they tend to short strike. In the future, will def try to set hook instantly, especially when practicing CPR and especially when fishing with artificial lures. Thanks for visiting the channel and dropping a comment!
Hey man, where was day 2, spot #3 at? I'm in a manual wheelchair living in Jax, and that spot looks kind of accessible to me. I'm trying to find more fishing spots around here that I can get to either by hard packed ground, pier, or whatever I can get to and not get stuck in soft sand.
That’s right off heckscher drive. It’s the little creek right before you reach the entrance to Huguenot park. The pull off/parking is on the left side of the road. Lots of people use it to launch their kayaks and small boats, especially on weekends. But weekdays, hardly a soul. Nice hard dirt too. The creek is called Haulover creek. Good luck!
@VISUAL-LY Nice. I appreciate it man. Do you know of any places that you've been fishing at in Jax that someone like me could get around decently? Any places like that or any good docks?
@@Corey.Leonardhey Corey, check out a spot off of Atlantic Blvd in Jax. There's a dead end road off to the side of Atlantic with easy access, lots of spots to fish and it's paved. People fish from the road all the time bc the only people there are fishin! Good luck!
@@Corey.Leonard Corey, I was there today and the fishing area's been changed due to a big ol' fence that cut over half of the place off. Yup, it makes a giant sucking sound, but more importantly it ain't gonna be any good for you & your wheels. Sorry Buddy. Little Jetties is an option tho, also search maps for the few piers around Amelia Island
If you ever need someone to fish with, I need someone to show me the ropes of kayak fishing in saltwater. I'm in Nassau County so should be able to meet up somewhere.
@@VISUAL-LYI'm still new to kayak fishing. I've fished from my kayak in a private lake in Folkston and the St Mary's River once. There's plenty of little saltwater creeks I would love to fish.
Just get a 7’ ninja tackle do it all rod. Best inshore rod ever made. Their surf rods even better. I literally am 11/11 on surf rod casts catching a fish with it. Have a star stellar which is a every nice surf rod and doesn’t catch 1/10 the fish set up with the exact same leader/bottom rig set up.
Hey man new to Jacksonville area. Seen some of ur videos. Would u be interested in showing me the basics saltwater shore fishing ? I can help u record or something in exchange
We need more of this series
Definitely will be more! Thanks for the support!👊
Day 2 spot 1: I was catching small flounder last week there. Using soft plastics on a very slow retrieve.
Hell yeah! Hopefully bigger ones show up!💪
