Like this comment if you love snook fishing!!
What size reel would you recommend for keeper gags of the skyway
Caleb Anderson 8000 size reel and an extra heavy 8ft rod! 50-100lb or more.
Caleb Anderson conventional is gonna be better than spinning since you can gain more line faster with a conventional reel
I do love snook fishing but I'm 45 mins inland . I wish I was closer to the bay!
@BAMA 1986 Are you saying Texas doesn't have snook and peacock bass or just peacock bass?
I’ve Been snook fishing Tampa bay for 30+ years and I love watching your videos when I can’t be out there! You’re a good fisherman bro, great videos!
Healthy fish, showing them the fire baits. The purple demon is where it is at. 🔥
Joshua Taylor thanks for watching capt!
What do yall think about the purple demon in the daytime?? Great vid as always homie. Im down here in Bradenton so not far brotha. Tight lines!!
Brian Zantop never tried it. I think it’ll still work though!
Never caught Snook but on my list. This is the kind of video I look for when it comes to fishing. Specifics and not just watching someone catching fish,
Thank you for watching!
@@Thonny watching from Guyana. South America btw.
Great work Mr Fins. I was at the doctor yesterday and he said I needed to lower my sodium intake. I told him not happening, I subscribe to Salty Fins.
Head First Fishing 🤣 thanks for watching capt.
Nice job landing the snook. Nice location too. 5min from my house. You're right. Gotta respect the local anglers.
Orleannist Garcia thank you for watching!!
Is it john's pass?
It sure is not..
@@Mrs.TooShortt lmfao
Great advice, you certainly know your stuff. That’s a great spot, fished there since 1969.
What size of Tampa is this on
Side
Thonny, I met you yesterday on the pier. I was joking when I said "at a undisclosed location". Wow, you actually do respect the spots. Mad respect back at you. Next time you are down there, I'll see ya. I have some spots to show you. I'll share my spots with you, because you respect the locals. Bring a heavy duty rod and line with you. I know where some beast snappers are at, including some keeper Gags.
Saint johns pass
Plz plz plz tell me where I can go for some nice gags.
Good night of Snook fishing and topnotch tips for sure. I need to get me some of those miracle swimbaits. I hope you land some monsters in your upcoming adventures.
Rad Reeling Fishing thank you JC!! I appreciate it man. Looking forward to this summer
I love both of you guys channels. Keep up the good work 👏
Ramiro Rivera I appreciate it!!
MAN!!!
This video was beast mode. Nice work brother man! PuRpLe DeMoCrAT! 🔥🎣
Not A Fun Loving Guy thanks man!
Love your channel man. Great fishing man. Really nice snook man.. Yea man. Amazing purple demon man.. I love throwing those man. I am headed out early am man.. This video got me pumped man..
I definitely plan on som night time inbound tide fishing this year.
Thanks for another great video.
Aaron Baker hope you crush it man!! And thank you for watching the vids!
If you're ever in the Ponce Inlet area, check out the 3 bridges on Spruce Creek area just west of the inlet...
The bridge's on the passes are the best at night. You can catch anything that's running. Great video man.
Jeffrey Waters absolutely man! One of my favorite types of fishing!
Nice job.
I’m going out tonight fishing docks near Tarpon Springs on an incoming tide w new & great advice.
Cool fishing man!! Hey try a loop knot on your jigs gives em more action and you can feel the lure better imo. I just subbed. Keep em coming man!!
Stan Carson thanks for the tip! I’ll have to try that. And thank you for the sub and watching the vids!
Hey if you ever fished down by John's pass I think that's where you're at right here at the bridge go to Gators on the pass and off their back dock right there under the lights a lot of people don't know about it but you got to use live pen dish there is some of the biggest horse snook you ever catch there's some really big and also there's some nice group of back here too I go back there and order a picture of beer something to eat and every so often I usually have one at the local kids come down and I have more fun watching them hook into one of them big snook but I am one of your new subscribers I have seen about four of your videos and enjoyed all of them keep them coming
Great vid, will definitely be by the bridge when I come down in June. Too bad they are not in season . As good eating as pompano.
Love the way the drag sounds
FatBelly Fishing thanks for watching Logan!
Solid video, Thonny! I think the bait was straight. Man idk how you put that ZMan on first try. I can never get them over the bait keeper. Beast snook
Thanks for watching Chris!
Try the z man headlock or the trout eye on them!
I second the trout eye
I swear this looks like John’s Pass. Madeira Beach side. My folks have a condo on the beach 100 yds from you. I’ve fished where you are since 1979
Thanks for the fishing tips fam. I’m on the east side fishing Atlantic ocean
Appreciate you watching!
I love seeing local fishing youtubers enjoying the same spots im always at. Hope to see you there someday
Nick Sawchuk I appreciate you watching!
Fire video but the whole time I was laughing Bc you said “man” in every sentence lol keep up the good content
qtXien thanks for watching!!
I know your in Pinelas county and I used to kill it by Gators at Johns Pass. Caught my 42 inch PB snook there.
That’s very impressive sir 🙌
So awesome to watch your fishing videos. You really know how to get it done! 🤙
Southwest Kayak Fishing I appreciate that man!!
Where are you at man? I live in North Central FL and go all over, mostly Jax, fishing a creek for flounder right now lol. Lookin to beat the heat at night here soon with this summer heat, looks like you got a nice system already.
Tampa bay!!
You're crazy running a 30lb leader!!!!
Interested to know what tackle bag you were using and also what was the name of the variety box you had the assorted jig heads in. ... great vid BTW..
Angelo Blanda I’m using Simms sling pack! And the binder is made by Z-Man! Tackle box you can get it at St Pete Fishing Outfitters! Thanks for watching!!
Nice work! Thanks again for hooking me up yesterday.
Andy Kouris no problem man!!
Love the video man you're so chill and know how to slay some snook keep it up
I appreciate it 👊
Hey man I love your channel, I just moved from NY to Florida just need some information about where to find snook and what are tips to catch those fish
Awesome Purple demon on the shadow line. Love it.
Eric B. B thanks for watching Eric!
Loved this one dude!
these videos actually kinda fire.
DMV Perch Pounders I appreciate it my man!!
Stumbled across your channel, great video! I miss saltwater fishing in fla.
I appreciate you watching the vids!
@@Thonny one of my favorites!
Hey Thonny another great video. Seems like that Z Mann Purple Demon is the ticket... that paired with moving water and shadow line, those Snook don’t stand a chance. 👍🏼🎣
Joseph Helenek thanks man!! Try it out
Saltyfins I’m just going to have to try it out then you’ll see my FishBrain post 😎
Joseph Helenek alright man! Tag me in it
Thanks for not spot burning
that is my regular spot 5min from the house
Love the content
Can i meet one or you guys there and help me catch my first big size snook? I know the bridge so its not like i dont know the spot... would he greatly appreciated lol
I do enjoy the night fishing, great video brother👍👍
OFF Fishing I appreciate it my man!! Thanks for watching.
What type of soft lure keeper do you have? I like the ring.
That’s a z-man small bait binder!
Found you on my news feed like you said nice video, subscribed
Matt Legare I appreciate it my man!! Thanks for watching!
Yo! I’m out in Marco Island! I’m going to take your tips and hope to catch a snook! Is October a good time for snook? Or tarpon?
Yea the snook should be biting !
Is this johns pass in st Pete ?? I love fishing here
Brooo i know exactly where this spot is my buddy on fishbrain jon showed me that spot 🤙🤙🔥🔥🔥 would love to run into you out there bro 😎😎 awesome video 📹
I appreciate it 👊
Nice fish man!!! Keep the videos coming!!! 🤙
Thank you!!
Hay thonny nice job bro... i Fish that spot Johns pass the other night scene about 10 nice size snook just hanging around the shallows by the boats I tried for a few hours to catch them using live small pin fish they come up to it then go away why ain't they hittin ? ... Any help would be great I plan on going back soon
Sometimes they just won’t bite. Typically if they see you they will not bite. I’d dishing for them real early in the mornings, evenings or at night. Were you free lining the pinners?
Yo I went to school with you haha didnt realized this until I seen ur name in the comments. Great videos bro
Thanks for watching man! I appreciate it!
Great video Thonny. I live about ten minutes from these spots and I’m so pumped to hit these this spring. Just ordered a few different Z Man lures and jig heads just based on this video. Of course I got them purple demon DeiZels on deck ready for some monster snook in a few months!
Great lures! Let me know what you think.
@@Thonny I’ll be sure to let know when the snook really start up… btw I was the guy that was talking to you at the pump this morning at WaWa… I hooked into a monster snook at pass-a-grill earlier but he snapped my leader after almost taking all of my line off my reel. Other than that just caught a bunch of whiting… hopefully the spot you were going to produced for you today.. hope to see you out there sometime!
@@andrewkozlowski3706 it’s a shame he didn’t recognize your comment you should start your own channel.
Omg if you say man one more time lol gheshhhhh man man man man man man 😂😂
Looks like Bay Pines bridge and John's pass.. Both great spots
Shhhhh
@@sethwynn9512 fr mane 😂😂😂😂
❤Lost my biggest Snook ever fishing Johns Pass ! On the east side fishing the incoming with a jumbo shrimp. There used to be a party boat moored there. The Snook hammered my shrimp as I was reeling it in. He headed for the channel and broke me off on something. I couldn't stop him. 😮
Not lately.
Still recovering from red tide.
Nice video! I’m Excited for this year mullet run!
3xotics Games thanks man!! I wish we had the mullet run on the west coast
Saltyfins it gets wild on the east coast!
Great video man, how did you know what color to pick in that situation?
Hey thonny love your channel man really great content was wondering if you could recommend I guess a kind of snook starter kit if you will to get going after these water beasts thanks again ✌️
It will depend on where you’re gonna be targeting them. What you are gonna be using more of live bait or artificial lures?
I'm on the treasure coast of Florida more or less it will most likely be bridges, jetties, and inlet I read they can be caught from the beaches too as for live or lure I'm a lure man myself
@@kristopherturner3016 I personally would go with a 6k reel Penn or Shimano 40lb braid 50lb or 60lb leader material. For the rod I’d look into a st croix avid 8ft heavy 17-40. Powerhouse combo to throw 1oz-2oz jigs, yet still light for what it is especially if you go with a 6k Shimano Saragosa
@@Thonny yesss thanks thonny youre the man gonna hit the stores to see what we're working with wish me luck and good luck to you on the water wheather today or in the future thanks again
@@Thonny You don't need a 6k reel and a St croix Rod. 3k or 4k reel with 15-20lb braid is absolutely fine. I've caught large snook on a 3k EASY! I prefer a 7'6" medium heavy rod. Great cast distance for lure or live bait. Strong backbone for snook and red fish.
Ahhhhhhhhh I know EXACTLY where your at ...look out for the security guards they there from about 8 PM to 6am.....enjoy it to cause a new restaurant bout to open & all that area gona b hard to fish
Heading down to the keys from NY on Thursday for 4 days any tip will be fishing day and all night snook or tarpon have a load of jigs have you and information that will help us. If you wanna fish the north east in spring or fall for stripers let me know. Sean
I went night fishing for snook tonight. No luck on my end lol. Had one snook slam my lure but got off that was about it. Nice catches here though man!
Thank you!!
😂 when he says im feeling pumped
i'm watching this video, like, why does this guy seem familiar... hahaha. awesome lets go fishing sometime. I have kayaks!
New sub here! Loving the videos. Do you throw those dark lures in daytime for snook as well?
Great Video!!! Thanks for the awesome tips!
I appreciate you watching!!
Purple demon has been collecting dust for me I always used the smaller ones I need to step it up & use the 5”🤙🏼 Solid fish man
Dill Pickle Fishing thanks brother!
Link to your little tackle box/flip book? Looks so convenient for all those packs
Here's a good place for you to try and it has every species of snook there is snook Island lake Worth Florida I just got back from there and the only thing you catch them on medium size and large golden croaker
Take a shot every time he says “man” 😂
Awesome video sir. Definitely subscribing. May I ask what is the brand of jighead you used for the zman lure?
I think it's a z man 6/0.
What type/size hooks can i switch out for lures with treble hooks. I also have the yo zuri minnow
ahhlurkin Try Owner inline 2/0
I have yet caught a slot and I want to get on these bridges. Do you think my 3000 Stradic ci4+ can handle these sizes? Lol
Jared Gomez absolutely in open water like the flats. But for bridges I’d go heavier than the 3k
Saltyfins I figured. My biggest was probably a 20inch lol.. would you recommend a 4k or 5k?
Jared Gomez I would go with the 5k
Jared Gomez medium heavy action rod
Pretty informative video! I also discard the trebles in all my lures but tell me, which are the inlines you're using?
Ara Mis thanks for watching!! I typically use VMC and Lazer sharp
@@Thonny Thanks, can you tell me which model-Nr. also?
It seems you're using VMC's 7266, I was initially employing them as well until noticing that I was losing to many already hooked fishes, during the fight.
Nowadays I've switched to VMC 7237 and Mustad Kaiju and this problem has disappeared. Didn't you face this issue as well?
Great video! Respect! Do you mind sharing what lighting you used?
Aputure AL-M9
@@Thonny Thanks! Great quality and well executed! Subbed!
Thx Tony I learn to much with you
Hey Thonny is the west coast bottom not very rocky since you’re using lighter gear? Over here on the east coast if I’m using lighter line there’s a 50/50 chance a snook might take me in the rocks.
Toe Knee the currents aren’t that bad at the bridge. It all depends on where you’re fishing. Definitely want to beefin up the tackle when fishing deeper water with strong currents.
Awesome video man. What bridge is this?
If you are fishing bridges with live bait do you put a sinker on? If so how heavy?
MrGabys91 yes a sinker or you can free line with no weights on.
Try the inshore twitch bait from yo zuri great for jack reds snook and trout
G.O.A.T santos thanks man! I’ll have to give that a try!
JP bite hasnt been very active the past week or so not sure why, been fishing park & park for my snook fights, would love to come across that first spot lol
Hey man!! We should do some fishing! I'd love to learn a couple tricks!! Haha
Do you know anywhere else i can get the purple demon zman since st pete outfitters is closed?
Gator Jim's... They have 3doz shrimp for 10$ just ask. Dogfish or betts is open but in pinellas County
I just checked that spot out last week didn't fish was just out driving around with the wife glad to see there's fish there
What is the spot called I am 15 and I really want to catch snook just don’t know where
Yo. I live right by johns pass. Awesome place. Never fished there but probably should
Nice snooks man gotta try out some of those zman products.
Nice snook🔥 Great video, keep it up💪🏼
D_ sportfishing Thanks for watching!!
Very good, beautiful Snook 👏🏻👏🏻👍🏼
BIG MATHfishing Brasil I appreciate it man!
That is a beast snook! How big do you think mine is?
Thonny, wya.
Johns pass
Nice fishing buddy.... trying to catch my first snook. Lately I'm bass fishing in canals and pass by and surprise me... of course I have a bass lure on so he swims away .what like do you recommend that will work for when I see a snook again...and best time of day...
Lou V can’t go wrong with paddle tails early mornings or evenings occasionally you can get them on the flats with lures but it’s hard to get the big girls on artificial mid day. Try live bait during the day and artificial lures at night.
Thonny, good stuff brother! Hope to be down in the St. Petes area this July chasing snook. Good vid man.
@barracuda8u
Cuda thanks man! Snook fishing should be really good this summer!!
Love that combo - what was the rod make a model?
It’s a Kris Greene’s custom rod 7”3 10-20lb MH
That purple demon is a great one let me tell you about the one I've been using is another good one the Green Lantern check it out my man I mean if you don't have it already
Joey Joe I’ll have to try the green lantern. Def looks good!! Do you fish with the 4” or 3” minnowz?
@@Thonny my man I got them both I'll use the 3s with a jig head and I'll use the 4s with the Z man I believe they called the Texas Eye swivel jig head it's awesome dude the question I have is I haven't seen any purple demons in 5 in is that the ones you were using that night at the bridge?? 5 inch or 4 inch
Joey Joe it’s the 5 inch. They do come in 4” and 3” as well.
@@Thonny yes you are right my man thank you and tight lines!!!
Very nice bud!
🎣
Thonny what's the model number for that bag?
Unfortunately it’s discontinued! But it’s simms sling pack. You can check out the new ones on the website
Give Slayer Inc paddle tails a try sometime. He recently added a grande size too. Made in Jacksonville. Guy named Chris Cenci makes them. I do like the Slayer better than the Z-Man...Check em bro!
DJ Allen I mainly fish z man but I do like the slayer sometimes! Especially for flounder fishing..
Snook season just ended here ☹️
Snook seasons been closed for the longest on the west coast!!
Love that video ! What kinda camera you use?
It’s MattZzzz thanks man! And it’s a Canon EOS R
