She Was Trying to Catch BIG Drum but THIS Is Better!!

getting out here for an afternoon winter session it started out at like 27 degrees this morning so when I was looking at the forecast I thought to myself well let's just wait till it warms up a little bit and then I'll get back out here because right now it's currently like 55 degrees very comfortable I'm actually sweating from walking out to my spot so it's nice to comfortable getting the hoodie on probably could shed it for the moment but I'm sure once it stopped moving a little bit it's gonna it's gonna cool down for me looking for some wintertime fish out here in the surf doing some set Rig fishing excited to be here such a gorgeous afternoon it's bright and sunshiny not a cloud in the sky decent water Clarity on the back side of the bar up close here it's not it's not bad but it's just a little dingy not upset about it for the species that we're going to be going for today mostly the drum species hoping for the primary winter Target looking for one of these big black uglies big black drum big uglies whatever you want to call them they uh become a little bit more prevalent in the wintertime wintertime black drum fishing is all about patience you've got to be patient you've got to put in the time A lot of times you're going to come out here and sit and you're not going to catch anything for hours but that's all you can do you just come out here you wait doesn't matter something smelly as far as baits go I like to use synthetics like fish gum of course pieces of shrimp go shrimp you can use pieces of punk crab great options but anything that sits out there that's stinky and smelly and can sit as long as we're not dealing with a lot of bait Stealers the longer it sits the better a good chance of picking up one of these fish so I'm going to spend a few hours this afternoon see what we can get into let's get to fishing I've got some Publix shrimp here these are some thick jumbos allows me to get plenty of pieces of bait off of One Piece and some fish gum so we're gonna keep it real simple here to begin with I've just got single drop rigs on everything even my quote unquote Pompano rigs I've got them tied myself as single drops I have four baits out two further out too close in got some bases covered mostly shrimp and fish gum is what we're working with there you go looks like you got on there that time this fish hit it like three different times before it actually decided to get hooked ah that feels pretty decent [Music] here we go first little fish of the day we're gonna hang on to you in case we do want some cut bait catching fish in the wintertime is always a plus so gotta get started somewhere a little Widing [Music] there he is oh yes all right we must have a school level my daughter and Courtney are headed over hopefully they can get here before uh before this bite dies down hmm feisty booger a little bit better fish that was immediate as soon as I threw it out there this guy took it nice thank you buddy we'll get you back save some of that from a dollar when she gets here so let her catch you I don't even know if my daughter's ever even actually caught a Whiting which might come as a shock if you follow the channel as much winding fishing as I end up doing out here in the serve I do and I brought annalize out here she she's had to have caught a Whiting I don't know but they're on their way out here hopefully uh Courtney and at least will get here and I can hook up a couple lighting for them anyway thank you it was a rather aggressive hit there I don't know if he's still here oh yeah he's still here man that thing hit it hard and fast this thing's swimming a little quicker than normal just an aggressive Whiting man he smacked it this one's kind of got that gold tint to him as well a little bit heck yeah all right thank you dude well the lighting bite seems fairly solid I've gotten several bites caught four or five fish now hopefully by the time annalize and Courtney get here we can still maybe catch a few fish while they're while they're here they're not staying too long but we'll keep our deep baits out and see if uh see if we can pick up one of these bigger drum species on the back side of the bar but so far encouraged we got a decent bite going on that's a good thing hey you made it what'd you find feathers those bird feathers yeah those are pretty cool just found those on the beach I'm pretty you want to hang on to them or you want to let them go let them go you want to let them fly away it's cold hello getting our steps in today oh annalize grab it serve that go go go can you reel
