- Keys Kayak Fishing Under The Bridges. Since I was out doing some cast net videos, I of course had to try and catch some fish. This was over at Park Channel where I do a lot of bridge fishing. You can drag your kayak down on the West side the easiest.

So many Mangroves under the bridges. When I use to fish them we use to get a good amount of big muttons too. Good video man!
I occasionally get some smaller ones. These bridges are surrounded by flats so we don't get the real big fish hanging out like the mid and upper Keys. I just hate that drive up there. These are good eaters though.
You do an awesome job showing the "nitty gritty". Appreciate how you show the ins and outs, and struggle some people edit out for glamour reasons. Nice work.
Thanks info. Yea, I am not the fan of the "watch me reel in a fish" videos/tv shows.
I've used one of those weighted nets. They are hard enough to use from shore. You are the MAN for being able to use one out of a kayak.
It's really cool to see the evolution of your videos.
The way you produce your videos has changed so much.
Man the quality of the snapper you have always caught, awesome.
Nice vid, its good to see under those bridges. Thanks for sharing, Graham.
Awesome video.you always make good videos you help me learn what to use as bait for different seasons
Been watching these while I am on the treadmill. Enjoy your Vids. Steve. 👍🏼
Glad they are taking the pain away for a little while.
Great vid there. I have also been back tracking through them all since subscribing, so many good ones and some great tips as well. Thanks for making them.
Good deal. I have some pretty good ones in the mix from last year. Lots of big Tarpon.
Great videos brother, been watching for a while!
Thanks Chad. Same here. Your the first "major" fishing youtuber who has commented on my channel. Appreciate the support.
Received on March 1. Snowing very hard with wind. It is really a nice looing kayak. Wish this weather would come around to warmness so we can try it out.
Dude I've seen your videos all the time, keeps me entertained, upload more please lol
Almost every day.
Got my first kayak today!!!!!!!!
🤘🏻😎🤘🏻
Awesome stuff dude
nice video, that is a great example of a place I'd be too afraid to launch from.
If you have a really light kayak, you could basically carry it down. I just don't worry about the dragging so no sweats by me.
When I was a kid me and my uncle would go crab catching with a long net over a brige. It was so fun
You know you hit an older video when you see the old Civic!!
Wish we had more of these bridges up here; I'll be all over them!. Nice catches and surprised you didn't take one home for the frying pan.
But you guys have the Tautogs. Are there fishing piers up that way.
Those were some nice mangroves! Good job!
Thanks ZtremeH18. Appreciate the props.
I Love going to the bridges for Snapper the ones you caught are a perfect size, another great video bro.
Yea, I call them Sandwich Snappers.
no people fishing from the bridge?
There was one guy when i just got there. This bridge doesn't get hit very often.
Hahaha... The was the best thumbs down I've seen on a kayak channel LOL! Good stuff and I'm so glad I'm the only one saving the world, especially our fishing spots! Hope people get the message. Keep up the good work
Good deal Christian. I think that the more you provide a good example, it makes it seem like an acceptable thing to do. Kind of backwards in that we should be focusing on people not littering, but I think it is more effective to show people that it is okay to pick up after others and protecting our passion.
Love to see a Gheenu owner try that one over the rocks! Nothing a little HDPE won't cure. Great vid Steve!
Thanks Elevin. I just consider them as a tool in my arsenal. No babying of tools. They are made to get the job done.
very detail, great fishing video
I love your videos , was down in key largo last year so jealous of you!
Thanks Johnny. The Keys are a wonderful place if you like the sun, fishing, or drinking.
+Key West Kayak Fishing id rather catch grouper and drink beer then deal with that damn sun ! It was like a swamp in Miami , you should make a grouper video soon they are such good eating !
nice vid mate, thumbs up
Thank you sir.
I love when he casts the cast net
That is my bread and butter.
cant wait to come down and do this!!
The fish are here. Can't guarantee the winds though.
hear ya, all you can do is try right lol
Pretty cool fishing some nice fish around those pylons there!!!!!
Like my little fish market.
It is!!!! We've really got to look for our fish where I am, but if I was up north of Western Australia fish are more plentiful up there!! I like seeing the stuff you catch!!!! Nice work!!!!
Hey man... if I were you I'd keep my yak bottom away from those sharp rocks or you'll end up with deep scratches and eventually crevices. I saw you dragging it down there and thought "no way I can afford doing it to mine"... my yak is no fancy or expensive, but I try to keep it as safe as possible... even more because I fish alone all the time... and if because of a crevice it begins to make water far from shore, it can be dangerous... and/or at least loose some gear. Anyway, nice fish!! Thank you... this is the most frequent type of fishing that I do... here in Miami there aren't so many good mangrove fishing spots or at least I don't know them yet... so it's easier to go under the bridges.
I don't know, I just consider my kayak as a tool or piece of equipment. I have patched that kayak from front to back. Check this out. ruclips.net/video/VD0pbY2iQuk/видео.html
Awesome video Bro! Nice snappers!
Thanks for watching KoS.
Good move at the end buddy!
Makes me want to go fishing now! Unfortunately I'm on crutches again for a week. Just might try to hobble my ass to the park and see whats going on.
Let's Go Fishing! South Florida hope you feel better
Let's Go Fishing! South Florida you got karma when I got crutches you made the best video and big fish and mad me jealous
Karma is a bitch! LOL. A few more days and we'll start the Karma thing all over again. ; )
Thank You so much. I really appreciate your comment.
Hope you feeling better bro.
Great fishing !
Thanks a lot mirek.
Key West Kayak Fishing I wanna fish there with you.
really beautiful place, good video
Thanks Jake. Nice buck you got. Love the snow. Looking at it on youtube not in it. LOL.
thank you! it is all melted, hoping to get colder temps and more snow soon.
hey check out POR-15 patch and seam sealer you would be amazed what you can fix with it , maybe even make a hard bottom for your kayak. just remember to paint over it because it doesn't like being exposed to the sun.
Love a the persons who put their civic to work I have a 99 and I'm in construction and never had her break down on me and can't complain with 25 bucks will last me 2 weeks👍
I know right. I just can't justify buying a new car because it would just get abused and eaten up by corrosion. The only time I drive it is when I have a meeting in Miami or when I am going kayak fishing. This one is a special commuter model from California. No A/C, no power steering, no power windows, no power door locks, LOL. It has one fan belt. I am still getting 40 mpg without the kayak on top.
Great video man!
Thanks for checking it out Mr. Flanders.
Great boat love the Tarpon 140
Yea, I forget sometimes how much fun it is. It's my fun fishing kayak.
Did you leave your vehicle open the whole time?? ;)
hola que tal vivo en Miami . y me gustaria saver donde esta localisado ese Puente ... y muchas gracias key west kayak fishing por todos tus videos
You toss your gear around like its no big thing. LOL
great video, way to create your own fishing place , where most others wouldn't go through the hassle of launching and such a hard place paid off with some nice fish couldn't help notice the patches in the front of your kayak just wondering what you use to patch it I have holes in the front of mine and tried several products which none would bond to the plastic ,,,
Here you go. I have pretty much rebuilt that kayak using plastic welding. ruclips.net/video/VD0pbY2iQuk/видео.html
At 4:43 are you standing or sitting? Sorry if dumb question. Can you make a video on how to locate baitfish and throw the cast net while sitting down. I'm a big guy and do not think I can throw the net while standing. Thanks in advance!
Steve, you need a nick name. While you where picking up the trash, I thought of one,"Flip Flop". Great vid, Thanks
Yea, were not going to do that. LOL.
Great vid...Really like your entertaining fishing commentaries lol. Out off curiousness...did you leave your car door open that whole time while you went fishing.?! If yes then I guess your rods worth more than the transport. 👌🚗
winter in New York sucks!! I wanna be fishing on my kayak and making more YT videos
I hear you. You could drag your kayak on top of the ice and fish through a hole. Actually, that would make a funny video.
Love the civic hatch, my kinda guy
Thanks Meibol. It has been one of the most stable thing in my life LOL. Always reliable.
Dang Stevie you have to work so hard to provide us with some good piece of entertainment that sometimes I feel sorry for you. Just loading that kayak makes me tired, I know it's fun. but too short. ?? Is that music you used to play in your videos part of go pro editing program or can you give me a clue... Thanks.
I used to just pull free tunes off of the youtube list. I am not really a music guy so was doing it just because I thought i was supposed to. I gave up on it as it was just more work. The youtube library is pretty big so a lot to choose from.
Awesome videos you put out we should hook up in the keys baits on me lol thanks I don't stay to far !!!!
Thanks for watching Miami. See you out on the water maybe.
Nice rig!
Appreciate it. Thanks for watching.
Maybe u should have someone with you, to make everything easier for you, and if something happen there is someone who can assist u MAN!!!! Just a suggestion!!!
So when I'm down in Key West from December 28th-January 4th, we're going fishing right?
love the vid
Thanks for watching Cj.
Love that civic !
Thanks. I get that a lot. I get offers all of the time to buy it. It is such a reliable car.
Did that Honda car come with the roof racks? I have a cadillac and I'm looking for racks I can put on and take off without having to use straps and damage the car
Nice spot there will be snapper or fresh water fish right there
Steve, what are your thoughts regarding mono, fluoro, and braided line for this style of fishing and fishing in general? Do you use one style for everything or specific line for specific techniques? Thanks
For general fishing I use braid with a mono leader. On the flats in clear water I use light fluorocarbon leader. For Mangroves with live bait like I use, plain mono is fine as they are focused on the bait. Depends on the fish size and location (structure, sharks, etc.)
we had storms this morning like u wouldnt believe
Those north storms are going to be starting I guess. Free airconditioning for down here.

nice snappers for bridge fishing mid day. . do you mind if I try my hand at these bridges?
They are open to all who do not fear the troll in the green kayak underneath cutting their lines and taking their expensive weights. LOL. That one is Park Channel. My new go to bridge.
any recommendations to fish between plantation key and key largo? kind of close to sunset point park.
Work that island and cuts along it to the west. Work both sides of the shore line. Tarpon might be around.
I've been meaning to ask you something for awhile now but I always forget. Almost every time I fish the mangroves in the Keys for snapper I've seen very big fish that look just like mangrove snapper but are much much bigger than all the rest of them. I will typically see only 1 or 2 of them and usually after I've been fishing a spot for a bit. Do you know what I mean? Are they just really big mangroves, some other snapper, or am I just crazy?
I've seen them all through my life up till now on almost every trip but have never caught or hooked one I don't think. One of those fish I've seen that keeps me up at night.
You can get Jewfish +100 pounds in any deep water cuts along the mangroves.
That is what I thought the first time I saw them years ago, but in trips since I've gotten a few really good looks at them and I'm sure they are snapper. The last one I saw was a few months ago, and it was swimming on top of some brush in the water tight to the mangroves right in front of me about a foot from the surface. Acted exactly like a snapper except it was at least twice as big as any mangrove I've seen in the roots. Same gray color with dark edged fins and deep body. Must just be huge mangroves I guess, but if it was its the mother of all mangroves. I would estimate 10lbs or greater.
man im watching you fish just feeling depressed cause i havent fished for about half a year
niCe ! I got a 13 ft pelican I'm picking up tommorow Have 10 ft john boat with a 2.5 mercury and a 24 ft seaFox but wanted to give kayaking a go for mangrove fishing in largo.So i can just throw it on my car with less hassle.There selling it to me for 150 think thats a good deal ?its practically new from what i see
Boy you treat your boats rough. Dragin' it like that through all that concrete 😩
I am a certified kayak plastic welder. LOL. I have patch that thing from front to back. I just treat my kayaks like tools of the trade.
Key West Kayak Fishing I fully understand after all they should serve you not the other way around.
Cheers

Hi Steve, nice vid bro Steve is that same bridge that were fishing w joe? Btw great stuff bro keep those vid coming 👍
Yea, that is Park Channel bridge.
great catch but I would have kept the mangrove snapper they are great eating
I catch a lot of them so some days are just fun fishing. I kept a few yesterday so that video should be out this weekend.
Cool enjoy eating those mangrove snappers
Thanks for picking up the trash
No problem. It's my home territory so gonna keep it clean regardless of others.
sweet!
Fishing like a troll under those bridges. LOL.
Woo first!
Good deal. Thanks for watching.
tough paddle bro, toss it a little farther next time
Those ain't those fancy dancy carbon fibre ones. Those are good old aluminum and plastic. Bullet proof. My stuff is tools of the trade, not pets.
where can I get the same type of Outriggers that you have on your kayak
Hobie Adventure Island.
well done
Thanks for checking it out BlackshawClan.
HARD TO BEAT A SOLO TRIP LIKE THAT. NOT ENOUGH PEOPLE GET OFF THE BOAT AND GET BACK TO THE BASICS. EVERYONE SHOULD TAKE ADVANTAGE OF WHATS IN THEIR OWN BACK YARD. SOUTH FLA BORN AND BREAD FOR EVER!!!
Yea, tons of spots around if you are willing to put in a little effort. People expect a nice fishing pier or it is not worth it.
At 1:29 did you ever go back and close our door
gotta be careful those snappers bite hard
It's those teeth. They will puncture your fingernail.
Key West Kayak Fishing a big one 17 inches mangrove snapper bit my finger hard once damn I got so mad I cut off its head and later become dinner
hey i live on sugarloaf and want to start kayak fishing but would like someone to go out with. you ever looking for a fishing parnter?
the mangroves dont mind a giant lead ball attached to their pinfish?
Fishing SouthWest Florida the weight holds the fish in places as it swims around a small area... the weight is not actually fixed to one spot.
What Mitchell said. It is called a knocker rig. ruclips.net/video/HdfRlaSL5kQ/видео.html
THx Mitchell.
salt water fish seem to have more energy and power. I would be scared of gators.
Yea, pound for pound, the salties are definitely the hardier species. No gators around here. Or at least none were supposed to tell the tourists about.
what cam do you film with?
Primarily GoPro 4 Silver.
Got a question do you have a dad that lives in Ga ? Assuming your around 43 yrs old .
👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
What type of hook setup were you using
what kind of roof rack do you use?
Just basic Yakima round tube racks. I forgot the length of the bars, but they are the longer ones. I also have the extension bar which allows the rack to sit farther back without a second window bar because of the single door hatchback.
👍
Gracias Bryanjaime
fish like it under the bridge s
Especially our bridges down here where there is basically only flats all around. They provide a bit of depth as well as structure.
Is your EK vtec?
No just basic 1.6. 97 Honda Civic DX Hatchback 1.6 manual.
I cringed as you dragged your yak across the concrete.
And 1:31
leave some fish for me to catch . .
Lil rough on your gear
nice video and such beautiful water, but you really need to do is buy a truck....fuck all that....good vid though..
My car is much better than a truck. Lock all my stuff inside, yak not hanging out the back, the heighth of my car is not much higher than a full size truck. 40 mpg...
He treats his gear badly
I fish a lot. They are just tools of the trade not a status symbol.
hey i make a fishing channel too
