Fishgum, nice presentation of fish not always seen. 0:32 - Juvenile banded rudderfish. Has dark bars on the sides and tail lobes and a nuchal band that runs from the eyes up to the top fin. These markings fade with age beginning when about a foot long. Pilot fish lack the nuchal band and retain the dark markings throughout adulthood. I saw no pilotfish in this video. 1:06 - Looks like a filefish, most likely a scrawled filefish 2:20 - Look like sharksuckers, members of the remora family. Juvenile cobia and juvenile sharksuckers are difficult to tell apart. As they age, cobia retain their dark upper halves while the upper halves of sharksuckers lighten. These look too light above to be cobia. 2:42 - Juvenile yellow jack 5:58 - Round scad (Decapterus punctatus). "Cigar minnow" is a handy shorthand to use when the fish is too far away or moving too fast to distinguish from other small fish. BTW, the fish in the background is a banded rudderfish.
The pair of fish were remoras not cobia, the "yellow" one looked like a yellow jack which makes amazing sashimi when fresh. The cigar minnow trick you talked about works well, how we used to do it when I was a kid but with small gold hooks, that was before sabiki rigs.
I want to make a request, dont think you can do this on a crowded pier. Put your camera under water, looking slightly "up" as best you can, then throw a cast net and show how it falls from an "underneath" perspective. That would be really interesting, and might help everyone to know when to best pull it closed. I tend to wait until it has dropped near the bottom, but haven't a clue if that is the most "productive" way to do it. Great video.
The fish that first came up to the bait at 1.05mins in appears to be what we call in Australia, a Leatherjacket. When you clean it you have to pull its skin off. It is usually a bait sucker - so you need a small hook.
🌴 hey tony , I searched a few videos on the tube , this one is one that worked for me as I just bought an under water video camera from a goodwill store brand new for seven bucks , it’s about the size of your camera but it has a fin on the end a 3” in weight on the bottom it has 12 led lights around the lens and is attached to 65’ of electric wire that can be connected to a 12 volt cam corder , video camera, or video monitor , I can’t wait to try it , the video you did was amazing and you should do more vids with this camera angle, give a man a fish he eats for the day ,show a man how to fish he can feed his whole village , 👉🏻 Show a man a fish video he will know why his bait got stolen 🤣👍🏼
Appreciate the insight and helpful hints. Clearly it proves fish are there, but just aren't seeing anything good to eat- hahahaha Absolutely God created everything and it always amazes me that each design is crafted with purposeful details.
Amen! Hard to believe that even very intelligent people somehow convince themselves that every living thing “evolved” from nothing, into the infinite number of creatures that God designed… Never had anyone explain to me how something came from nothing, and I don’t expect that I ever will.

Looked like a File Fish my man
Yes, I absolutely agree....
Agree it's a file fish very soft mouths
Definitely
Same fish also called foolfish and shingles. Very common tropical and subtropical fish world wide.

As I said above, the 1.06, we call a Leatherjacket in Australia.
This is the best underwater video of fish I have ever seen! And you did a fantastic job on the commentary! 👍👍
Thank you for sharing!!
Appreciate the tip about the cigar minnows🎣🎣
The first closeup was a filefish I believe.

I love that underwater footage! So amazing to see. Never gets old! 😊 Thank you!

That was awesome! So much bait hanging out down there. Tarpon are gonna love it.

Get them in NZ as well. They grind their teeth like crazy
Always nice and encouraging to see abundant sea life I hope it lasts
Did you say this was the busiest pier in the country so can you say where it is?
I missed the name in the beginning
@@judithpitts4628 At the beginning he said it was Navarre beach pier in florida
@@theestablishmenta7903 Thank you for replying back, I was amazed by this and would never thought of it.
@@judithpitts4628 Correction!!!! Navarre beach pier.. Yes beautiful footage
GREAT FOOTAGE
Just fantastic video.
it looks so amazing
The bald one could be kojack. 😂
Cobia are one of the best saltwater fish to eat. You can cook it like a steak on your barbecue and it's delicious .
Very cool as always
Interesting and informative.
at 1:08 that was a trigger fish from Finding Nemo. I think it was Dory .
Wow...wow just incredible. P.S. thanks for the tip on the cigar minow

Looks like a trigger fish
That fish at the beginning of the video was a " leatherjacket"
2:38;I ate one once,THEY SUCK!
A little joke for you Southron&Yankee brothers and sisters!Enjoy it as it's tax free!😋
It looked like a trigger fish to me .
In Australia it would look like a leather jacket but I have less experience than many.
That one early on was a puffer.
Yes it's tropical
If it was in Australia I'd call it a leatherjacket. I dont know how they term such a fish here - they are very common.
I've been there before, there was a LOT of jellyfish
@1:10 in was dory from finding nemo
Trigger fish was one first appeared you questioned. They have teeth!
Did you figure out the yellow fish?
The ones with yellow and blue stripes are Yellow Tail Snappers
What is an LY?
We call them LY around the panhandle but most others call them pilchards or white bait.
I think it was a file fish
@2:20 a pair of Remora
Yellow Tail Snappers
puffer
A pufferfish
First fish at he camera is a file fish.
Think it was a 1:26 filefish
Il swim there
Pilot fish are yummy.
scrawled filefish
Broom fish
Puffer fish!
filefish
@1:06 Filefish
Cowfish

Looks like a filefish.
Completed some “extensive research” on google. My guess is it’s a yellowback fusilier
Just caught a banded rudderfish this morning in the surf with a casting metal.
I guess this is the new normal. Everybody and their brother is sinking cameras.
Why not? You never get to see this stuff normally
Amen! Hard to believe that even very intelligent people somehow convince themselves that every living thing “evolved” from nothing, into the infinite number of creatures that God designed… Never had anyone explain to me how something came from nothing, and I don’t expect that I ever will.
I just love your underwater videos. The smooth commentary fits nicely and the show flows on!
