Spot and croaker are two different fish i catch them in Virgina spot are good to use to catch flounder, striper, blue fish you can use croaker to
Thanks for watching and commenting ✌🏻
Big spot are good eating, except for the bones. Back in the day we'd fill a bushel basket, steam and flake and make fish cakes to freeze for winter eating. About as good as a crab cake.
I love croaker just because they sound like a cat purrin a bit lol
Both are croakers ..one is called a spot croaker and the other is called an Atlantic croaker 👍🏻 TY for watching
@@Exploremorefishing ive been there with some of the current lol. Have done a 6 and a 2 and hope for the best surf fishing.
Had fun today. The small teaser is the one for hickory shad. The others are just a variety pack for fluke, sea bass, and stripers. I'll make sure you are set for September. Tight lines.
Tom ! I really appreciate it, I'm definitely putting those teasers to work ....we had a good day 👍🏻 hopefully we can share the water again ✌🏻all the best
Great video looks like you had fun. I got an 11 pound weakie live lining a kingfish in avalon great bait
Wow 11 pound weakie! Awesome ! TY FOR WATCHING ✌🏻
That mystery fish is a silver perch. They are related to the other drum species like spot, croaker, weakfish, etc. Seemed like a nice day. We typically fish the Oceanic pier in the inlet and have not fished that pier. May have to give it a try. We love variety and my daughter hasn't caught a clearnose skate yet. Good luck on your next trip. Looking forward to more videos.
Thank you for watching and good luck fishing with your daughter , all the best ✌🏻
@@Exploremorefishing Yeah I think we also call them sand perch
Thank you !!
Awesome your in my turf... Get outta here there isnt room for any more fishermen. Im just playing glad to see you enjoying some MD fishing...👍🤘
Maryland anglers were really good to me ..I appreciate the love ✌🏻if your ever up north I got you big bro ✌🏻
@@Exploremorefishing I'm glad they showed you some hospitality. I'll keep that in mind if I'm ever up that way. 👍🏼
Only ones I catch off the surface during summer is skate whiting and spot, small flounder if close to the inlet
All fun to catch 👍🏻thanks for watching
Great Video!
I appreciate that ! TY!
Skates have a good taste
I've heard that from many people , some have said they taste like scallops
I caught a skate on a 1” gulp minnow on a 1/32 oz jig head fishing for perch, I thought I snagged him but it was in his mouth, it’s crazy what stuff will chase down
@@GoonieGooGoo410 that's great! This is why we fish ..we never know what's coming
Looked like a fun day. I was hoping you’d give that skate a meal. What brand of reel is the all silver with the with the blue mono on it?
Definitely a fun day full of variety, all the gear is listed down in the description 👍🏻 TY for watching and commenting
Are you still there?? I’m going tomorrow I really want to meet you!
FYI-sabiki rigs are illegal in Maryland unless you cut off all the hooks except 2. We are only allowed to have 2 hooks on a rod.
I only left the bottom 2 hooks , I made a note in the beginning of this video , thank you for watching
did he bail on your one reel break off or did you purposely remove the metal ring? Awesome video!
So that reel comes with a bail however I had it converted to Bailess ..it's a preference thing
@@Exploremorefishing any reason for the preference? me and a buddy were watching the video and have been trying to figure it out. Its a neat new concept to us
Lol great question, so the best part about having a bailess reel is it prevents you from accidentally casting an expensive lure out and it flying into the ocean , sometimes the bail flips over accidentally and it causes your whole rig/ lure to snap off ...it's happened to me plenty of times 😀 one less mechanical issue to worry about, hope this makes sense
The fish at the ~16:30 minute mark is commonly called a sand perch in North Carolina.
Thank you !!
Im coming there in two weeks! Ive never even been to the ocean before, but i would like to know what are the good eating fish there that i could possibly catch?
Thank you for the question, if you plan on keeping fish to eat I recommend targeting Kingfish/Whiting , croakers, and spot 👍🏻
@@Exploremorefishing thanks! Loved your video!
I appreciate you !
Im in Virginia and caught 2.sting ray and 1 skate off of live shinners
Keep up the great work , nice job Pat 👍🏻
Looks like a white perch
that weakfish usually have 2 teeth there great eating fish also called sea trout here
Yes 👍🏻 thank you for watching
Spot and croaker are two different fish
Thank you Craig ! I appreciate the comment , thank you for watching 👍🏻
Looks like a white perch.
That one fish was a sand perch.
Thank you !
The fish before the weak fish was a sand perch
Thank you !!
Spot and Croaker are two totally different fish. Lol
Yes 2 different species ..I believe they are both croakers , one is called a Spot croaker and the other is an Atlantic croaker
What exactly is a blitz?
It's a term used to describe when predator fish such as bluefish are attacking smaller baitfish at the surface of the water , usually you see the baitfish spraying/ jumping at the top of the water to get away ..one of the best ways to catch fish in my opinion..a lot of fun
That is a spot not a spot croaker. They are 2 separate species.
There are 2 croakers , spot croakers and Atlantic croakers , yes 2 different species ...spot croakers are often called spots ...Atlantic croakers are often called croakers , thank you for watching
That's why Maryland fishing sucks😂😂😂😂. VA is the best place to fish
Maryland was good to me , I should be in VA soon tho ..looking forward to it
Unfortunately your right but maybe Maryland would be better if the commercial fisherman stop netting up most of the menhaden
Early spring and later in fall is better fishing. Won’t catch but stuff in the surf often out there in summer other than sharks if you get it out with a drone
Tell Karen to go away.
