    Congratulations on that snook, great sized and sorry about the shark, but more importantly, you still have all your digits 🤗. Love seeing your garden, soooo many carrots and once your trellis is covered from the squash, it’ll look anazing! Thank you for sharing Erica, I always enjoy your videos 😃

    My dad was stationed at McDill AFB in the late 1960s. I loved Tampa. We used to camp and fish at a place called Twin Lakes, I'm not sure if it is still there, I think it was drained by a sink hole.
    I caught my first bass on a red and white Lazy Ike there.
    I'm from north central Arkansas.

    Should give the Braden river a shot sometime. I live on this river about an hour south of you. Wife and I caught 4 Redfish....4 Snook....2 ladyfish (who cares) in roughly two hours time yesterday. See dolphins several times a week. Had a large sting ray swim past the boat just to do a uturn and come pace the trolling motor right next to the boat for a good 10 minutes. Sat and fished around a half dozen manatees last week. Few gators from time to time. Otters seldom but once in a while. Woke up to first time ever seeing Green parrots in my trees. All in my backyard...absolutely love this river. Give it a shot if you happen to find the time. Short drive. Either way, great video.

  • @chriss.2776
    @chriss.2776 16 дней назад

    The equipment is matched perfect for the size of fish. It shows great sportsmanship. My personal preference
    grip for a rod that SIZE would be in wood. As I’m wrestling with the fish my hand tends get a little clammy and
    Seeps better o the handle. I getter a better grip on the grip. 🤓👍
    Way too cool! 😎

    @Its_me_SEFF 18 дней назад +1

    At 10:30 I started grinning. The bite, the fight, the shriek of the reel. An adrenaline rush like a roller coaster ride. The moment you tried to lift the fish into the boat, I almost died. It's lucky that "only" the fishing line broke. How does it feel to be bitten by an angry shark? I have no idea, but I'm not really keen on finding out.
    Have a nice day or night today. take care stay safe
