Yeah man! Happy to be catching something!

@@HookedOnBassin no man. Never be happy about catfish bro lmao.

Hahah they are super annoying but better than getting skunked I guess loll

Don’t think it was a sail but Sail cats are actually better than freshwater catfish because they aren’t bottom feeders. If you haven’t tried it , you really should

I wish we would’ve cooked some up that day, but they didn’t really have much of any meat loll

Yeah I definitely try to get it out if it’s not too deep! It honestly kinda hurts my soul to have to throw one back with a hook still in it!! 😬

@@HookedOnBassin Carry the right gear

Yeah or hell depending on how annoyed you get by them hahah

Heck yeah man that’s great info right there! Let me know next time you’re going out & maybe we can link up so I can sponge all your salt fishing knowledge!!

Hey thanks for your concern buddy, but I am a huge conservationist! If I can get a hook out obviously I’m going to get it out, but if by me getting it out the fishes throat is going to get ripped apart and it’s going to bleed to death, then I’m not going to rip the hook out and at least give it a chance. Thanks for your support though! Stay hooked!!

He’s definitely gonna be in a lot more videos with me!!

Thanks man, I appreciate it a lot!

Yeah they actually get annoying there’s so many hahah

They had both swallowed the whole hook unfortunately!

Heck yeah glad I could help! A little further down the causeway are a couple different pull offs on both sides!!

Hey bud I have a good crabbing spot. I've been looking for someone to crab with. If interested hit me up.

Hit the skyway at night for crabs

I would love to check that out & I am getting a kayak soon!! 👀👀

That’s what I’ve been hearing!! Hahah I need to get back out there!

ONLY this biggest around here baby!! Loll 😜🤦🏼‍♂️

This is honestly one of the best comments I’ve ever got! Seriously thank you! Obviously I’d love to make this into a career & be able to fish for a living, but I can’t think of anything I want more than to inspire others & help grow the sport!!

I’m terrible with road names lol just google Courtney Campbell Causeway and it should take you straight there

No we just pulled off and parked on the other side at the first entrance point to those side roads.

This was the Tampa side, but I haven’t fished there enough to know if one’s better than the other! Sorry, wish I could help more!

How’d you do?? Better than we did I hope!

@@HookedOnBassin no bite, water was low and cold and dirty

That’s a bummer man. I wanna get a kayak up near there by all those houses & docks!!

@@HookedOnBassin looks so good, I look across the sea and see it

Might have to try to sneak back there one of these days hahah

Hahah the trash can slam?! I haven’t heard of that, but that’s hilarious! I’m assuming ladyfish are part of that?!

@@HookedOnBassin Yep, Catfish suuckk! Lady fish are great bait if you cut them up. Big snook love em and reds.

That’s what I’ve heard! I moved away from Florida so I haven’t done much salt water fishing for a while, but man do I wanna catch some big snook & reds!!

🤣🤣🤣 what a hero!!!

Well did you keep it or throw it back ? I heard parents love those things

🤣🤣

If they swallow it and it’s lodged in their throat it’s just gonna kill them from rippin it out so might as well leave it & give them a chance!! 🤷🏻‍♂️

We’re definitely gonna be doing a lot more fishing videos!!

I would love to man! I don’t live down there anymore, but next time I visit let’s definitely get together!!

It was a tough day no doubt, but better than work!

Hell yeah!! What all did you catch?!

Got nice size lady fish and a bonnet head shark then walked down under the bridge and got some good ole stone crab claws

Yes the water was cold walking in 😂

That’s awesome!! Hahah nice catches man. I need to get back out there!

Pretty sure I’d I had something to remove it I would’ve! Loll plus thats a junk bait fish who cares. Rather leave it than jack up their throat & kill them anyways🤷🏻‍♂️

This is the kinda stuff I need to be learning! Hell yeah man thank you. So cut ladyfish good for reds/snook/trout?

@@HookedOnBassin ehh more of sharks and catfish at that spot. But snook will hit it so will redfish

Heck yeah man that’s some good knowledge! Thank you, I’ll definitely give that a shot next time!

@@HookedOnBassin yes especially good for snook

Nice!! I still need to get my hands on a big snook!!

Are you crazzy?! Get that corn outta my faceeee

I know tell me about it!! & damn ladyfish! 🤦🏼‍♂️🤣

Definitely!! I found a couple good looking spots downtown the other day, but I haven’t fished them yet!

What do you mean like other people getting mad a fishermen??

So the fish we caught on this video were basically all back to back to back!!

Dude thank you for the support! 💪🏻

Tell me about it 🤦🏼‍♂️ hahah I NEEEED some big snook tarpon or reds in my life badddd!!

@@HookedOnBassin lol man im just bustin your balls. I live in Clearwater. Ive had a lot of success at that spot fishing for speckled trout. very good eating. The catfish are a nuisance

Hahah yessss those catfish SUCK lol what are you using for bait for the trout just shrimp?

what are some better spots

@@Jake_Cook not gonna give it out. But can name few locations. Ft Desoto, Terra Verde, blinds pass, johns pass, but best bet is Google map to scout out the area. Even skyway are good not the pier wise. But what will be helpful is to use jig more often even artificial will help you to cover the ground more

This is the kinda info I need to be getting!! I just moved down here from Ohio and definitely don’t know much about saltwater so I appreciate it! Let me know if you wanna meet up sometime and you can show me the ropes!

@@HookedOnBassin i would love too but I just moved up to Citrus County in February but still come down and visit occasionally. Use zman minnowz with 1/6 to 1/4 oz ttlockz jig head make sure you put super glue on it so it won't slip. Plus get procure manhaden on it also mirrodine xl will work too down there. But if you are fishing on top of the bridge use docs goofy pompano jig yellow color with pink teaser, or spro buck tail jigs or vertical jig will works. Night time is the best bet but day time is good too. Also oyster bed under baypine friendship trail is good it only accessible during low tide be sure wear old boot or waders due to alot of oysters just park by target by the trail then walk all the way to bridge then go under and walk to the end of oyster bed there will be a little inlet. I've caught big jacks, snook, reds, trout and flounder there it a very good beginner spot

@@HookedOnBassin hint. Ft Desoto. Look for a lagoon by the piers. It one of the best spot and one of my spot. Google map will show it

Loll that’s fine man. Some people will always be whiny and want something to be upset about. I’ll just do me & help grow the sport of fishing any way I can!

What’s this? Another good spot?

@@HookedOnBassin I built that bridge there at Belair and Whitney and 19 at 60 I can send you pictures

Oh wow that’s pretty awesome!! When do that go up?
