Using LIVE CROAKER For BIG Inshore Fish Around This RIG Payed Off.
Рет қаралды 23,374
2 жыл бұрынLive croaker was the desired bait this morning for some Hungry inshore fish. Using a free lined method I caught some Quality Speckled trout and redfish early in the morning before the wind and rain ran us off. Almost broke my Personal best on this trip!

I remember going fishing with a guide out of Corpus Christi. He rigged them up with a rattle on his line. We shook the line to make it rattle and make the croaker “croak” and we hooked some nice fish.
@CaptCollier Жыл бұрын
Yes that is a very effective method. I haven't personally used the rattle rigs , guess I should give them a shot

Great flounder spot just about 3 to 4 foot off the bottom with a grub hardly no jig just light movement that's the right weather with in the tides I use to float away from there with at least 40 to 50 restaurant size flounders that's where I sell them at on the island I use to live at the campground @ that time when punkin capt snapper had his seafood shop there on the island. I sure miss the island life. it's good to see locals there doing fishing videos I'm enjoying it from here on my phone in Mississippi lol. But brother young man I'm subscribing to your channel to help out. I wish I had thought of this in my younger days but hell I don't remember if we had KZfaq back in my days 😎😁 keep up the good videos I'd like to tag along with y'all. stay safe and fish on brothers

I agree. But I understand some people want fish to eat as well and I am guilty of keeping big fish as well in the past. The more I catch the more I want to release when I can. Even better trout action coming up!

It depends on the conditions for me. When I know there is trout in the area I will hook them there because the hookup ratio is better IMO, vs if I’m having to kinda search for them making more than 1 or 2 casts I’ll hook them in the nose or top lip

If you hook the croaker above the anal fin and use a khale hook you will hook almost every fish in the corner of the mouth.
