The Secret to Catching BIG Fish at the Pier! (Simple Pier Fishing Tip)
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 27 авг 2024
- I have found the secret to catching some of the biggest, strongest, fish on the pier: JUMBO live shrimp! The snook off this pier go CRAZY for them. These fish are picky: you have to have the perfect ultralight setup for these snook to come anywhere near your hook. What’s your favorite setup for catching snook?
Today, we are at Sebastian Inlet State Park in Florida, on the hunt to find the best fishing spots around. The Snook here are HUNGRY for the biggest shrimp we can find. After some frustrating attempts, I catch my FIRST SNOOK EVER (and he is HUGE)! Do you like fishing for Snook? What is the biggest one you’ve caught?

One of the most humble anglers on RUclips, always sharing his knowledge through his fishing experience.
Another good guy is Extreme Philly Fishing
@@BY-bj6ic I'll check out the chanel.
I love this guy. I feel like I learn something new each video and just genuinely enjoy his experience and his passion.
people try tell me you can't catch nothing big with dead bait
@@feralgoat3771 yes u can
I love how humane you were to the snook when releasing it
Shut up
Meanwhile his buddy throws his right back like it’s just another fish 😢😂
Much respect on the treatment of the snook. Not sure what your friend and dad were doing with the drop. Seemed kinda stupid after what you did
@@MrChavo1111 soy boy vs man
Your dad‘s fish might have died the way it fell onto its side from that high But anyway, you guys had a great time, I loved it
Make sure when your tightening down your knots especially the one you retied after you broke off, you wet the knot before tightening. It lubricates the line so it doesn't rub against itself so hard. Nice catch too!
Please clarify it to me in football terms cos I'm going fishing with my dad at 6Am and I'm drunk now 4AM
Love your videos. I live in Tucson, and don’t get to any water to fish. So I’m living my retirement years through your videos...some day, I’ll get to the ocean
I feel very sad for you landlocked retirees🥲
its been four years but let me tell u can u can definitely move, take up some part time or full time work for some nest money then do the big sells to land a place anywhere youd like, even a foreign country. hope youll be seeing the sea
I never had any catch for the past few weeks......but I enjoyed watching you fishing and your wonderful performances.....TQVM (Lumut MALAYSIA)
Thanks for sharing your knowledge, bro! Learning as much as I can from your videos and going to apply it to fishing here in Okinawa, Japan! 🙏🏽
Love how he shows to gently put the fish back, and everyone else just yeets into the water. Lol
Yeeting is fun sometimes and that can't possible be less humane than purposefully stabbing it in the mouth with a hook and forcibly dragging it back to shore😅 oh but a little airtime and a splash is just too much😂 these people crack me up bro
They don't mind the yeeting.
so long those gills get some water
Early in the morning at the Naples pier is the best, caught one fish. In the first 10 min of fishing
My question is how do you prevent pin fish or smaller fish from hitting your shrimp and picking them off BEFORE the big fish can get to the whole shrimp
Yes I would like to hear the answer to your question too
Can't prevent it. Other option is to use small fish as a bait.
While you wait for a big fish, catch those little bastards with sabiki rigs and keep some, that way they get scared off
@@mobiledragon3449 ya gotta put at least 1-2 in a chum bag and toss it off the side, to remind them why they should be scared👌
@@trumps-a-hoethat was such a great answer.
30lb leader is all you need for snooks. It’s not heavy and still lite enough to keep your bait manageable.
great video! i was in florida for the first time in december 2019 staying in the tampa area for a month. got my fishing license and went fishing at one of the piers, buying some raw shrimp - not live like yours - along the way and fished like i've done from piers in california. caught abought a 16" snook - first one ever. i asked a guy what kind of fish it was, he said snook and out of season and i said it's my first one and he replied that some guys fish and fish and have never caught one!
As a lifelong Tampa resident I can attest he was right. Shrimp get hoovered by anything in the ocean, and dead ones even faster than live. Snook will eat dead shrimp but they are active predators and prefer live food. You got a very rare snag with a decent size snook on dead shrimp, right place at the right time! Nice job!
Hehe I use my ultralight all the time off the local piers, I use 6lb test mono with shrimp and I usually get a decent haul.
Try using 1lb test fly fishing for trout.
@@thesweetestjerk8905 are you suggesting using the lightest possible line is better?
Reminds me of that trip to Jersey Shore! Hooked up with Snooki, and the next day I realized I caught crabs.
😆
Skipper: “this is how you properly release at the Pier”
Dude in Red: “hold my beer...”
Haha right
Lmao my thoughts exactly
He released head first. It's another right way.
Yeeeeeet
Lmfao I came to read this 😂
Dude thanks for posting this video, as a beginner, I finally learned how to hook a shrimp without killing it. Thank you.
Live shrimp is always a killer bait...I even got a Bass in the Everglades..
Lmao. When dad threw the fish back. 😂
I know right. Like, was he even listening to you?
I love the vibes man. Can't wait to get my first rod and setup to go fishing 🎣
Never tried snook, now it’s on my fish bucket list.
Me too, I’m land locked in Colorado but it’s on the list now for sure!
I lol’d when he said 20lbs lines is ultralight
It kinda is at Sebastian Inlet.
I consider ultralight to be 6lbs or less.
I've pulled in good sized Yellowtail with 20 lbs mono
20lbs is kinda minimum here if your bottom fishing in Florida lol
Been following skipper for almost 2 years,I've learned a lot of fishing techniques. Well I hope I can acquire a set of quality fishing gears...I'm having a hard time mixing parts to achieve a proportioned gear...
That was so cool to see you hook up with your first Snook! Always enjoy watching you both and dad!!!!
Thanks! It was a lucky day for us!
Congratulations to you and your dad! Yeah man those Snooks are picky at times and you got there at the right time when they were hungry...sucks it wasn't a catch and cook. Jumbo shrimp with lite tackle rocks!
"We're gonna go with ultra light line"
*snap*
Been there
Ultra light and salt water fishing shouldnt ever exist together hahahaha
8:02 Thats professional angler doing... 👍👍
That guy who netted that snook is bad ass!👍
That the true way of sport fishing
Star: This is how you properly release a fish.
Co-stars: Whoop and splash!
Recently started to watch your vids. You got me hooked! Hahaha
Love how your dad threw the fish back🤣🤣🤣. It should be fine, dont worry
Hey skipper, I LITTRALY WENT THERE ON SATURDAY..... i caught 6 blue fish and 1 black drum, cant belive you went today.... looks like you had a blast, wish you the best of luck everytime!
What peir is this, Texas right??
@@ginomadsen1159 no it's the pier in sebastian inlet, florida
O okay ,wow looks like a trip to take sometime soon forsure
The snooks are tasted the best ! You can even eat it like sashimi
Always said Florida’s snook taste like our striped bass, delicious
This guy seems enthusiastic enough... Sounds like expert one minute then novice the next.
He shows us how to properly release the fish.
His friend: yeeeeeett! 😂
“This is how you properly release a fish” and then your father few minutes later improperly tosses it back in, your father should take your advice 🤪🤣 but is good trick to get more comments
I was waiting on someone to say something lol
I know and the other 2 guys just threw them in belly flop! Lol
I Totally agree. Damn hypocrite.
Wow - 1st ever Snook in 2020 ! Congrats Skipper !
Thanks!!!!
Que viva la pesca amigo 🦈 🦈 🦈
Thank you headed to Miami in 2 weeks for boat show. Hoping to get one on my travel rod
Yup big shrimp, big pinfish, bit mullet will get you big snook. You were in the right spot too, it seemed. Right around structures where the snook feed when time tide goes out probably. Nice job been wanting to catch one. Greetings from South Texas.
Congratulations 👏 you inspire me to go fishing with my dad!
Its January here in Florida but back at home its November because of the time zone😂
Nice lies time zones don’t change months
Congrats on your first snook Brenden! That was a solid first snook!
The best and my favorite spot for fishing big beautiful Redfish, Snookies, Sheepshead, Snappers and other species on the east coast of Florida 😍🎏
First time learning to catch fish
Good luck on your fishing adventures
You encouraged viewers to release the fish using the net, then your fishing buddy and your dad did exactly not that, although they will be fine as long as they go head first. Great video!!!
Are you a person that makes their own decisions? Or do you do everything you are told to by others?
as soon as you picked up the snook i (as someone also chasing my first snook) thought to myself “i would totally give the fish a kiss” the boom u do it. lol great minds think alike
When you come to mazatlán México? I wanna fish with you, because you're awesome
You ever been to the dolphins in mazatlan?
I do the same in fresh water... Crazy results......two small bead weights and a small hook.....red worms or minnows killer
So cant wait for it to warm up in Massachusetts. Got most of my gear ready to go.
Getting my first kayak too.
Whooooo
Three of the same snook caught. That fish was like, shrimp buffet and they throw me back. 😂😂 Three more weeks that snook will be the buffet. 😁
When u set up your rig for live bait. What kind of line did u use . N where did u get live shrimp
The secret is.. big live shrimp bait .. good info ...
You never mention the exact place you go on fishing. You have to inform them the right places you are going. Thank you very much I love to watch your video.
Dude there is a reason for this
Miss Florida fishing
Awesome! Those snook are beautiful fish. I think you stay down there longer, so you have one for dinner 😜
Im from Indonesia and i love fishing i hope i can fishing at sea there is have much big fish your video is good sir i like it
Sorry for my bad english
Im from Malaysia..no need to sorry bro..keep doing that..will improve ur english..semangatttt
You gotta love Florida...
I do 😁
Another terrific video,
Looks like tough weather but you got some beautiful snook, some of the hardest fighting game fish, when they’re in season I think you’ll like them as table fare as well.
I’m going back soon to try and get one for the table!
Hey Skipper ,Too cold up north here, hopefully will be down in the Tampa area mid April and hopefully have a video of catching snook,redfish,and trout,I’ll let you know, Keep up the good work
Nice catch My friend ......you should teach them how to release the fish with the net so they don't hit the water
Florida fishing sick love it
Wow, I'll try to install your bait, but I'll try it in the river, greetings from 🇮🇩
Can you show us how to tie the fishing knot from start to reel to knot thank you
You should make a video on the Naples pier
Always had good results off Santa Monica and other SoCal piers just "flylining" if conditions weren't to rough. Used anchovies or strips of squid most of the time. Also just a chrome sinker with treble hook lure style.
I had the opportunity to meet your dad out at Guana In Ponte Vedra Beach today!!! 🤙🏽😎
Tanks to your videos i learn so much about fishing
I fished there with live sand fleas.
Caught a catfish.
:(
It's cool, though, we tore up the pompano off the beach earlier.
One of my favorites.
ObiWanShinobi1 wow
Cool to watch your fishing expeditions...
I have a combo pack of squiddy bits ready to try for the first time next time I go fishing. Whipping in Hawai'i
Oh snap!
Snook fish, taste very delicious.
They taste delicious. Can't wait for a snook catch and cook
Me too! Be back soon
"Look at that knot. Let me see it break through that one." *proceeds to snip line with human teeth.*
Been a fan for so long!! Great video bro!!
always watching your vedeos, and got lots of idea for me to use.. thank you man..
Excellent fishing brother, well done from the U.K.
I love this guy videos , very instructive!!
Sebastian local here see ya around! Great content!
Pallomar knot. Best and fast to tie
Love your show mate! Greetings from sydney Australia, would love to see any future episodes where u fish during your oversea holidays, maybe in Australia!
Imagine being the Shrimp like “Okay I made it back, But I can’t move..”
🥺🥺
really cool spot...thank you for the way to catch the fish...
I noticed when you tie you’re knot you don’t wet the line you should try that I find when you set a dry line into a knot it makes it weak. Looks like a lot of fun though
Oh that is very good and clear
hey! Nice fishing video! When its warm where i live, im also going to make a fishing video!! Subscribed and liked! looking forwards to more great content!

Cool man I was the guy in the green jacket fishing behind you. I use that tee knot and caught lots of pompano and black drum. Yesterday the snook were biting greenies. Will see you out here again. Try snappers this summer.
