Great fish! Glad our Roosta Poppers can be of service!!

Since I live in Texas I can't help but wonder how similar surf fishing is over here compared to where you are? I love watching your videos. I have never fished from the beach but now feel like I could probably do well. Keep it coming. Your enthusiasm is contagious! The real deal IMHO.

Just incredible video...never caught a jack but really enjoyed watching this one being landed by a true pro!! Anyone who watches this video will certainly benefit!

Glad your back at it. I took my skiff to Emerald Isle NC today for the first time and I fished with the crab and squid fish bites and we SLAYED them. So thank you for all your advice and tips.

The Australian company'Halco' has been making poppers for a long time. In fact , all their lures are good , and well priced. I caught a 50 kg yellowfin tunA on their 135mm model rooster popper last year.

Fantastic video! I’ve never fished with a popper in the surf. Only Jacks like this I’ve caught we’re trolling offshore. Learned a lot from this video and others. Thanks Matt!

Terrific fish! Great video! Also buying 3 of those rooster poppers. Appreciate the respect you always show these beautiful fish.

This is by far the best video i have seen in a long time but you should def make sure to show more view on ur fight man well done!!!!

That was a magnificent fish. Well done and the fisherman's block is over! (Although I was 99% convinced that was a shark pre-landing.)

Thanks for all the top water tips, just went on Vaca to Dauphin island and the trout smoked the top water almost every morning. It was amazing! Best luck I’ve ever had off the beach!

..good one,you've got me sitting here going through my tackle box, remembering fishing trips from days gone bye,..lol..have a great one and keep safe...

Awesome fish! Love the topwater action. Thanks for the great content Matt, you rock.

Smokin that drag !

Any fish from the surface 1st thing in the morning is great. But a Jack puts the cream on that cake!

Men.. that was awesome, he is the mother of jacks.. very powerful fish.. I'm from PR and they are abundant, always a great fighter..

It was really cool meeting you today! Maybe the fishing will pick up next week!

Matt... That was awesome... Your exuberance was transmitted through your Video! There Is no experience like catching a LARGE FISH...Great Jack! We experienced your enjoyment of that Catch! Continued Success!

Jacks are amazing so much speed and power.It amazes me.

There are a lot of beautiful fish in this lake, your fishing was very good, congratulations fisherman.👍🎣😉😎

I love it when our guy wins....feels like I'm there! God Bless Beach Bums!

Great vid just got back from the beach caught lots of permit and a couple pillchards and a couple whieting with only a rod and shrimp hahah

Dude you worked that Jack, great job landing that beast. Love using Popper's.

As always, another awesome video. Keep cracking them out man. Love em!

love those hour jacks.. nice

Just bought three of those poppers after watching this. I'm headed down there from the midwest tomorrow hoping for some similar results.

Great release on that Jack.lts good when you make the effort so that majestic fish lives another day.

Ur so much fun to watch, I had to subscribe....cant wait till my husband takes me saltwater fishing....This is 1 lady that loves fishing as much as shopping...🖐🏽🖐🏽😀😀😀Please what type reel , rod, test lines ur using...

Imagine if this guy did some fly fishing at the beach, would be an epic video

Awesomeness, glad to see you take pride in your gear..

Best feeling when ya reel sings to ya 👍

Oh yes ! What a catch, top water and a " P B " ! This makes up for the lost days fer sure. I used Fish Bites for the first time today. Great ! Caught some real nice Croakers.Shrimp flavor worked just fine. My best to you and yer family, stay safe and Bummy. Tom Daytona Beach, FL. 12,July 2020 .

Nice Jack ! I caught my PB steelhead last Sunday 16 lbs steelhead in Lake Michigan. Very acrobatic! You rock!

Thank you for sharing. 🎣🎣🎣🎣🎣🎣

I haven't had a bite on the popper on the beach in my last three trips. Fishing over in Jax

Wow....good work brother...and the results are satysfying...really happy👍👍👍

Awesome catch!

Way to stay with it. You should make a road trip to Hatteras for fall drum. Nothing like it.

Good job lil brother

WOW, great catch man. Loved hearing that reel scream.

Congrats on your PB!!! Enjoyed the video.

I’ve only caught one and it was about half the size of that one you caught and it was the most challenging exhaustive awesome fish I’ve ever caught

Beautiful fishing

No land fish compared. Try lake Michigan salmon. Nice fish though. Besides it's always fun when the fish are biting.

That was a good fight brother. My arm was tired from helping you land that beast. Great video.

Awesome my man. First jack I ever caught weighed about a pound but I thought I had a ten pound fish on

Beautiful fish beach bum!!! Incredible

Awesome fish!!!

Hay Matt, loved watching you get stoked about your PB!! Nice jack. Stay safe 🇺🇸✌️

awesome Jack, loved the battle.

Nice Jack....! Maaaan what a confidence builder for top water poppers.... 2 questions: this answer can vary, but how long a drive is it from your house to where you park, and how much longer to get to the beach.(the walk). secondly, again this can vary, How much time do you spend editing a 20-25 minute video. Love watching your content....!

Man what a nice jack!

Gotta love those Jacks!

Man I wanna fish with you! You’re just an all around awesome guy!

hi please Where can I get popper for fishing 105 Like the one you used to start with the video thank you

Nice Jack Matthew!! I'll be down next month to give the popper a try.

If you know a Local rod builder, have him put 2 or3 wrap trim rings on your rod a Certain inch marks (20-30-40) will give you a basic measurement. without changing the action of your rod. Or learn to do it yourself and do ALL your rods.

Wicked catch dude! Good job.

That was amazing,really nice catch😁

I’m heading to Oak Island NC on Saturday. I hope to do some surf fishing.

Congratulations good program.

Awsome video. Loved it. When u say 50poind liter. U actually tie mono to your braid??? Can you show us??

Great job!!

There is King Macks out there past 2nd sandbar. I know there is, been catching them for 40 years.

No skunk baby!!! YEAH! Finally!

Awesome video man great catch sure that was a fun fight

Another great video, Bum!! Leaving Colorado for 8 days of fishing in Pensacola on Sunday! Your flounder gigging video inspired us....I may have missed it but can you tell me if that was an incoming or outgoing tide?

Talking about GoPro, which model do you prefer?

Skunk off!!!! Well done!

Do jacks run the beach in spring? I'll be down for the first time April 2-9 2021. I plan to kayak fish and surf fish

You are a good man, letting that beautiful fish go !! ;-))

I j saw ur four runner at j&m tackle. I couldn’t find u I was trying to get help on what to get for pompano this time a year

Hi Matt - appreciate what you do! Want to let you know the link to your beach cart on Amazon isn't available for purchase.

Thought about a scale and a waterproof logbook for moments like that?

Great fish bud keep grinding

I've never seen you keep a Jack, are they not good to eat?

Excellent jack. Caught a few this week and that one was littler bigger than my biggest this week. If you happen to find yourself around Amelia island area this comming Tues/Wednesday or want to take a trip for overnight fishing legally in state park. I have campsite and park closes sunset and opens at 9am for all non campers (means barely anyone else there especially fishing last time it was just me and friends alone entire star park beach was epic) Jettie there is on fire currently but only can be accessed by boat or if you get a campsite (which are booked solid for few they have). Going to toss a couple shark rods out (I have land based shark permit) and will target reds/trout/jacks, tarpon, bluefish, and flounder as all of them are biting excellent there on a light setup. If you can make it send a comment I'll get you my info and I have two spots left so your welcome to bring one other person+1 if you wish. We have electricity, warm showers, etc can bring RV or tent. Lmk if u will be around here kinda short notice but should be epic trip. I don't make KZfaq videos I do sometimes film my catches for my family but it is an epic spot to fish and film. White sand beaches with large rock jetty and a large destroyed fishing pier from hurricanes. I also have a spot in another epic state park fishing spot right on the beach (mayport jettys) for August 7th the whole weekend (campers only from sunset till 9am so will almost entirely ours if you find yourself around Amelia island/Jacksonville area send a reply and I'll get you my info for either of these or some other epic trips in the works.

That's alot of fun watching you catchin the big fish like that. How big do them thangs get?

Great video!!! Explain to me how you identify the RIP please. I'm trying to learn to read the beach a little better

You got a barn door !

What leader to braid knot do you use?

What reel do you use? Looks like it works very nice. Regards from Sweden

go to new jersey to fish for saltwater stripped bass and some big blues/bluefish

Nice vid once again bro!

Be nice to know what fishing rod and reel you have in each video

Awesome fish young man !

hey dude what length rod , lure weight and action type rod are you using ?looks like a St Croix rod ?

Would Topwater work out on Socal Beaches Excuse stupid question. Great 📹 🎥

Awsome fish can't wait to get some action down there after cv 19 passes over so I can go to the beach to fish

Jack Crevalle, To eat or Not to eat? I have heard both that these are trash fish and some say that if prepared right, they are good eating. What is your opinion?

Do you use a leader with top water plugs?

Told you to throw the popper 😉

Superb lovely catching ..

Long time 1st time. Would love to see you do a video for the traveling surf angler. Alot of folk only get down 1 or 2 times a year with a limited bag. Would enjoy seeing a video on a 1 rod simple setup and say your 5 must have baits for a trip. Don't want to over pack or under pack but heading down in September for a week and putting together my tackel box. Also looking to try and get a rod and reel setup for under $100 that will allow topwater and drop rig fishing. Any ideas?

What knot do you prefer for your top water lures?

Are jacks good to eat?

Nice fish!

I can never find a halco popper pink fluoro 105 in stock! Ugh

Hey buddy i dont have experience on surf fishing but me n my friend are planning to go one time,..what can u recommend to us what king of lure are better and also how much pounder the size of the line ur using ?ist a braided or mono filament?

Nooo $20 for him...My husband says he will bring down to dolphin Island and I hope I catches a fish 🐟 😅👋🏾👋🏾💯

hi Where is the exact address of this beach, because I will be attending it from Chicago, and is the car permitted to enter the beach? thank you 🙏
