I will ask you the same question as I have asked brant. From ohio, we would come down every year April 10th, or 15th to vacation. Surf fishing we would go out chest to neck deep, then cast out as far as possible. The locals would tell us what we were doing was dangerous, and they'd say we were kinda crazy. We always caught a lot of fish, and huge ray's. Why were we crazy and being told that was not a good idea, and putting ourselves in danger? We also fished bridges, piers, and rented pontoon for bay fishing under bridges. Question is why were they acting upset for the way we surf fished cause we always caught pomps, redfish, lady's, small sharks, blue fish, and ray's. Once I caught a giant weird looking caterpillar looking worm with spikes all over it?
@@tommieseiber804 it’s probably because of either you were walking into dangerous currents or because you had bait with you and there were sharks in the water. I know a guy that lost a hand fishing on a sand bar.
Finally someone came through, and answered me! Thank you my man! We survived it, it was in April every year, and we caught a lot of fish. Thanks for answering that buddy. God bless!
Man, I wish I could afford to come over there and experience the fight from one of those big, beautiful bull reds. You guys really do have some awesome fishing over there! Thanks for letting me experience it through your videos Matt. You’re always entertaining and fun to watch. Your enthusiasm is contagious! Keep up the great work bro. Peace and love from the UK
My two favorite beach fishermen on the planet!!! Awesome video guys!!!! It looks pretty warm where you are. I'm going to the beach here in Maryland tomorrow. Freezing cold or not!!! Thank you so very much for giving us the 411 on your setup. Greatly appreciated. 👍🏾
I enjoy watching you and Brad surf fishing, I’m a little more than 6 hours from Gulf, Mississippi, I grew up salt water fishing, prefer it over freshwater any day.
I have had the same thing happen while freshwater catfishing... "Man, I can believe I haven't been broken off yet..." POP!!! 😔😔😔🤣🤣🤣 Seriously though, snelling circle hooks is the way to go. It really doesn't take that much longer than than a clinch or Palomar and the bite to hookup ratio went way up for us. Thanks for posting! Great vid as always! THAT LAST FISH WAS A BEAST!
You guys have green grass. Ours is decidedly brown, and occasionally dusted with snow. Stuck between boat fishing and ice fishing for now. I catch fish vicariously through the 3 amigos. Love all of your content. Keep it coming bro. Oh my word, I've neglected to mention Bearded Brad. His content is awesome too! Thanks guys for helping a poor, miserable northerner get through the non-fishing doldrums.
Who was more fired up in this video ? The Bull Reds or The Bearded Brad and The Beach Bum 😂😂😂. I’ve been slaying the red fish here In Tampa Bay . Can’t even buy a snook eat … all drum work in the bay . Awesome trip fellas ! Only thing missing was FRED
Wow that bite was on fire!!! I would love to catch just one much less than 5 big bull reds!! The east coasters just don’t understand true southerners! 🤣. And you were nice enuff to let the bearded one catch 2 off your rods. Great video Matt!
Boom 💥 It's good to see you pulling those big Red Drum outta home waters! So much fun!!! But we own the record here in NC😂🤣 Didn't even know anyone used 4 oz lead in the Gulf!
Thats what I'm talking about!!! Don't get much better than that. I love soaking bait in the surf for big drum red or black. Watching y'all is almost as good as being there. Looking up and down the beach, watching the rods. You can feel the excitement in the air. THE BITE IS ON!!!
I’ll be down the week after Christmas. I have no idea what I’m doing, BUT want to make a go of it for a video for my landlocked friends. What should I target from the 28th of December to the 2nd of January? Will the reds still be runnin?
Matt, Really enjoy your videos! You can shorten that bite leader down to an inch or so. No more than that needed. Cast a lot better when you need the distance, and it’ll wash a lot less When you don’t want it to. Also helps a lot to prevent deep hooking, which happens sometimes
Hello, i wanna know if this realy big fishes you caught that day are good for eating? Or are they protected ? Sorry for my bad english. Greatings from Germany. Wish you everytime" fish on" and a good health !
Reds are highly regulated in AL. There is a minimum and maximum size limit. So in order to keep a red it has to fall into the slot between the min and max. That’s why keeper reds are commonly called slots. The big ones like that wouldn’t taste good, and they are very illegal to keep. They are strictly catch and release.
@@WO1Josh first: i wish you a happy new year and thanks for your answer :) i am only a fresh water fishersman and i know only the rules in my country. It is intresting that some rules very equal.
We call them bull Reds in the Outer Banks. Most locals never say red drum. Either puppy drum or bull depending on size. Love to get into some action like you are getting into today. We have some fun runs over here, but with the exception of down around Buxton at the point, it's rare to score so many bulls in one day off the beach. So much fun! I'm a little jelly over here because it's about over in our neck of the woods
13:45; lol on the gathering coterie of spectators. I’ll bet that happens a lot for Bummy but I guess I just never noticed it before. I know sometimes he’ll put in clips of passersby saying they love the videos and such.
I have not tried using mullet to fish for reds here in Pensacola beach guess I need to try that I know reds and black drum are out there. Nice action on this video
11:24 what I say after a night of taco bell
Lol that’s really good

I'm from Texas and it's definitely "BULL RED". End of discussion.😎
Awesome morning of fishing! That 40" red was a stud...Another great video Bama!
Loved seeing those surf rods bend! Beautiful fish.

It's 75 degrees here in Jacksonville FL, I couldn't imagine living through a long tough winter. God bless friend.
Same here in outstate Nebraska...waiting for ice.
What kind of surf weights do you use?
What an awesome day of fishing. I always enjoy your content. You make me want to quit working today and head to the beach now.

Matt - bull reds on 🔥. Enjoy the vid. Nothing like fishing and getting in cardio at the same time. 😀
That’s what I’m talking about !!! BIG BULL REDS !! Let’s Go !! 🧨🧨
Good Morning Friends
Love is patient, Love is kind
It Always protects, Always trusts
Always Hope's, Always preserves
Love Never Fails
Peace Everyone
Wow the fishing was on fire. You and Brad make a good team. I see some 2 man team competitions in your future. Love the video.
So freaking jealous of you guys in the most non-hater way possible!! That was like my dream bullred session right there boys. Tight lines!

Yea we do! But ours have Stripes!
We got them in the Outer Banks but I know they're more prolific in the Gulf
Boom 💥 It's good to see you pulling those big Red Drum outta home waters! So much fun!!! But we own the record here in NC😂🤣 Didn't even know anyone used 4 oz lead in the Gulf!
Hurl your lightning bolts and scatter your enemies!
Shoot your arrows and confuse them!
Great content! No rodents! All fish! No squirrels!😃
I know, lol I haven't even watched his little squirrel hunting video yet, normally I watch them all right away
Awesome video! Keep up all the hard work! Hope you enjoyed your well deserved time off.
What a great day of fishing!!! I am so-o-o-o-o jealous.

Loved the video, I always snell my hooks I lose fewer fish that way.
Watching with 14 inch snow ❤️go guys

Beautiful fish

I hear those 🐟🐠 are good eating, those were some nice ones! Where was y'all 🎣 at?
Thank you , this video made me more excited towards fishing.
WoW - 40 inch Reds ....... geez what a fish.
You guys are just a great great bunch of fishermen love you all

@@Sinas-bw6tu Alabama does a pretty good job with managing its fisheries. I live in Tennessee, and we have alit of the same rules and regulations.
I’m in Fort Myers and I’ve never seen reds that big before! Loved the video!
A great morning Matt. Too big to eat but such fun to catch.
Big cath friend...Good job 👌🤙
Thank you for showing us your rig up! 👍
That was a blast! Thanks for sharing!
I love how excited you get when you hook up! Great video brother
You can call those fish anything you want when you're in them that deep. Even the bearded one is happy.
Wow nice spot it's big fish nice fish on God bless
That would have been a keeper day for me would have made it nice fish fry 😊
Great to meet you today Matthew! Maybe see you at the beach sometime. Also, sweet red fish! God bless!
Great video I never catch anything like that when I'm surf casting I don't know why
Great video guys 👍
I have now subscribed to you, bearded Brad, Ron, and brant! Thanks, to all you guy's. Very good people, and your all fun to watch!
You caught some really really nice reds
Great vid bite was definitely on fire! Keep it up. You're like David Spade with a fishing pole🤣
👍 Nice 🙂 Big Reds , Doubled Up !
Twins 😍
You oughta do a sail cat catch n cook! They’re actually surprisingly tasty and that video would probably do numbers
Fantastic fishing, do you ever eat them?
Hi where are you guys fishing. My son and myself will be visiting in December. And would like to see the fishing. Thanks 🇿🇦
I can only wish to catch reds that size. Great vid. Can't wait till the next.
Great day BBB & BB. Cant beat an early morning on the beach with the Bulls biting.
These are the type of videos Beach Bum fans like the most
What size circle hook and brand are you using. Great vid as usual awesome red action brother. 🤙🏼👊🏼🎣
Insane fishing.
Beautiful redfish!
👏👏👏👏👍
When I see this video.. My thoughts are -someday I will also catch them the same way here in India.👍🏽
Awesome video bud, Now thats Drum fishing at its finest!
I heard the sale catfish taste really good it's actually a delicacy
One fish two fish you caught a lot of redfish
I Know That I Would Have Been Making Me Some Tasty Creole/Cajun Redfish Courtboullion For Dinner.

BB, you need a Saturday morning show. I always look to see what's up on Saturday morning.
Incredible video!!! Loved it
You were on your game that day! Nice man, some Brutes
Epic morning! Woohoo! Cheers!
Great video! Do you know what lies on the bottom of the Gulf and twitches? ... A nervous wreck!
Hey Matt, what's that Area Across from you with those Bright 🌞😎 Lights On ?
Dauphin Island
If you had Sputnik sinkers No worries about holding bottom then
I’d love to see a foot race between bama vs bearded brad vs cmr vs brad
Damn y’all are catching them at the beach rn? I’m still catching them in the bayou might make a beach trip
Love this!!!!!! Thank you so much for your show! I love watching from Central Texas!
i was exited watching .. epic day, love the bulls.
What a dream day thanks for sharing
13:45; lol on the gathering coterie of spectators. I’ll bet that happens a lot for Bummy but I guess I just never noticed it before. I know sometimes he’ll put in clips of passersby saying they love the videos and such.
I wanna know more about that one fella's beach cart. Thing was like a monster truck!
BOOM....
ITS RED TIME....
Catching all the Weight!!
I'd like to hear your analysis of why you think it was such a good bite.
When the schools of oversized bull reds move through looking for bait, it can be like that. Fun to experience.
By OBX standards, a redfish under 30 lb is a puppy drum.
I have not tried using mullet to fish for reds here in Pensacola beach guess I need to try that I know reds and black drum are out there. Nice action on this video
Live mullet is my favorite bait here in Jacksonville, but cut mullet works great too.
Great video man reds off the beach and big ones to boot. Wish I was there! Lol
Matt do you ever eat them and if so what is there flavour like .
Good Times....Tight Lines !!
Awesome video, I hope to experience that battle some day soon ✅💥
Loved the video and reds are so much fun
Wow, what an amazing day! One of the best ever.
Will have to drive across the bridge and test the waters over there.
cut bait mullet is the best for bull reds!
How does that long shock leader affect casting distance?
In Florida,, Any Red Over 15 Pounds We Call A Bull Red.
In Texas it’s over 28 inches, then it is a Bull Red.
BULL RED it!s A southern thang
👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Yep it’s me 🤘🏻😎🤘🏻
What hook size do you use when fishing for big reds?
Your lucky all I’m catching is spiney dogfish, regular dogfish and another type of shark with white spots
You killed it buddy 👍👍👍...crazy bite...
Very nice
