I also would love to see Meg do one of these, her reactions to being towed everywhere could be priceless 😂

    Use a white bucktail 2oz or bigger with a strip of croaker meat or spot or bluefish keep it looking neat, strips of meat not a chunk. Jig it around the pilings on the bottom. Avoid sheep areas. Just my two cents from fishing the cbbt for flounder

    you said flounder and i remembered a special fishing trip with my grandfather in miami florida in the 80's. short story- I was 10 years old and spotted a big flounder off a water way sitting below in 3 feet of water and my grandpa said that's good eating so I hit the fish with all my might with a big rock. our family had a great dinner that night and a story that last to this day.

      Also commercial shrimp nets are allowed in the Pamlico sound, which is the largest estuary on the east coast. Those nets kill everything in their path, especially in the estuaries where the juvenille fish can't swim fast enough to avoid the net. When I was young I pulled a recreational shrimp net with my uncle and the dead and dying bycatch we pulled up was disturbing. I respect the fact that these guys have to make a living, but shrimp can be caught offshore where the bycatch is more reasonable.

      “….true freedom…” Lots of definitions of that term. Freedom for your neighbors to do absolutely anything they damned well please? At whatever time and place? Like have a hip hop dance party in their back yard at midnight on a work night? Or set rank upon rank of gill nets in critical fish passes? We have conservation regulations because we cannot depend on all people to be reasonable when it comes to using our natural resources.
      Gill betters screamed bloody murder when their destructive equipment was banned. “Freedom!” they hollered, “You’re taking our freedom!” Well, yeah. You were killing everybody’s fish, so we had to take some of your “freedom.” Whose fault was that, really?

I was pitching wind cheaters into the rocks & hooked into an absolute monster black that took forever to raise him. I know you say that bridge is hard fishing and it is now….but 20+ years ago was a completely different story. I caught some monster stripers off those rocks.

    You have to vent the air just below pectoral fin. (not in the Stomach) that's why that big Drum was floating. If they aren't vented, most times they will float and cant swim back down and will die.
    Please look up on how to vent these fish.

    • @derekv8534
      @derekv8534 2 года назад

      I was thinking the same thing. If the water is over 28 feet deep that fish’s swim bladder was completely inflated. Sometimes the fish still die, but it gives them a much greater chance of survival if fizzed.
