My name is Brian. I am a frothing outdoorsman and local fishing guide always in pursuit of big fish, big waves, and big laughs. Come join me as I travel around my local state of Florida and other parts of the world surfing, fishing, spearfishing, and hunting. While I love to entertain, I also love to teach so I'll also be sharing some of the things I've learned after spending decades enjoying these activities. So if you're looking for some entertainment, education, tricks, tips, and hacks in the ocean, please subscribe to my channel and you'll be the first to know when I drop a new video! Thanks for your support and I look forward to having you along to share the adventures to come!
Haha thank you. I honestly did the same on my way there waiting in the airport. I had already been traveling with my fishing gear so I had to give it a try. Definitely not something most people know about but but 100% worth it for the novelty factor.
Sick! Yea man, 2020 was a great year for waves in Fla, the East side & the panhandle were so good that year! People think Im crazy when I say I wish I could go back to 2020! Keep up the sick work! Are you using SS3?
That’s Awesome! Semper Paratus! 🏄🏼♂️. I remember when the bozos closed the beach due to Covid. It didn’t last long in Florida. Very were out charging 🏄🏼♂️🤙💪🇺🇸🫡
Thanks! Yeah they "tried" to close the beach, didn't work out so well. 😆 There were some spots that you'd get chased out but ironically the closures weren't enforced at all the best breaking spots! What a time to be alive.
I worked in Dubai on an oil & gas project about 25 years ago and went to that beach for a swim and there were a couple of people surfing, I didn't have a board so I was just body surfing but the water was so warm it was actually uncomfortable. July - August. Waves were good though. I could see the potential. And I get the impression there are good surf spots over on the Fujairah coast which faces into the Gulf of Oman and gets swell from the top of the Arabian Sea .
I can only imagine how hot it would be in middle of summer. I was there in May and that was borderline tolerable. Good to know they still get swell there during the summer though. Some of the expats I spoke with said winter was the best time. Definitely makes you wonder how many other little honey holes there are along the entire gulf.
Yes, you need a license. You can get either a day or holiday pass if you are only going to fish for a day or a week. You an purchase at www.cartedepeche.fr
All 4 were italian pike(esox cisalpinus), the guy told you "look, this is an italian pike!" not because it was any different than the others but because he wanted to highlight the fact that italian pike are very feisty and they fight really hard! After the fight he was like "have you seen that? This is how an italian pike fights like!", that's what he meant. Great video by the way, I live 30 minutes away from this lake and it is not that easy to get 'em!
Glad you liked the video and thanks for watching! Yes I was told there were some hybrid northern/italian pike there as well. Super cool experience and you're blessed to live in such a beautiful area. I had some great guides so without them I definitely wouldn't have done so well😆
I've been saying this for years. Not specifically for the UAE but for the creation of natural waves. Wave pools are great when there is no surf but the potential is untapped for creating new, amazing waves around the world in places that get swell.
Thanks for watching the video and the sub! I need to watch more of your videos to learn more about fishing on your side of the pond! Looks like you have the seabass on speed dial! 💪🏽
Thank you for clarifying. I found that out a few weeks later and also learned that they're very poinsonous. 😑Good thing I didn't get zinged holding it!
@@bwbouncer5397 Sure, In most of my videos overseas I'm using a Toadfish Outfitters 7'2" MH Travel Rod (toadfish.com/products/travel-spinning-rods). Took it around the world and caught everything from 2-3lb rainbow and brown trout in the alps to 12lb Kahawai in New Zealand and it worked great.
I'm your fan!!! I'm your admirer!!! I only have one sadness about you, that you throw your fans away like trash, I'm one of them, but still, I'm your fan!!! I have observed your journeys, trajectories and struggles, I reflect a lot on your strength, nothing is easy, but we need to move for things to happen, even with struggles and difficulties, problems, including: this is our motto: struggles and wars daily, that try to stop us from getting where we want, but we are insistent in everything, so that we can get there... of course, clinging to God, regardless of religious belief, this is the only way we can get there, that's it. It's all good!!! I'm your fan!!! May God bless you so much, always including your family!!! Happy Holidays, my friend from far away!!! Please don't throw me away!!! Here’s to 2024, with many victories and achievements!!! These are the wishes of your friend from afar: Rubenn Dean Paul Alws "Petrópolis, Rio de Janeiro" Brazil!!! (Google/RU-vid)
Thanks Ruben! Not sure what makes you say I throw my fans away like trash. To be honest I didn't know I even had any fans ☺. If I do then I certainly appreciate them! Anyways, thank you for liking my videos and may God bless you and yours over the holidays and into the new year!
easy to use triple hooks where it is allowed to use only single hook without counterhook and a maximum of 2 hooks per bait when you go fishing you need to read the regulations and know the rules😡
Easy to understand rules and regulations when you speak the language! 😆 Perhaps you can share some links to these regs in English because I didn’t see that on any blogs/forums I researched. Furthermore, all lures uses were bought from Italian tackle shops who recommended these lures and all fish were released safe and healthy. So relax, two extra ~5mm hooks didn’t decimate the Italian trout population in the area, I promise 😉. Anyway, I appreciate you watching the video! 🤌🏽
Hello Brian, have to react to Your video.-) Im from Czech republic. but having my house on the Craotia island by name of Ugljan...its 20minutes by ferry from Zadar... Need to tell You that sea in adriatic is very empty especialy in 1st "canal" (means between coast and first islands) ... finding the fish is very difficult even for local fishermans. If You want to have some good catch, U need to go more far on the sea..(best behind the Dugi Otok and Italy) ..Wish U good luck and keep posting ! Greetings! Radek
Thanks for watching and for your comment Radek. I definitely understand what you mean by the Adriatic bing mostly empty. I had to work really hard to find the fish I did catch and there were a few times when I wouldn't catch anything. Nevertheless your comment made me feel a lot better about myself so thanks for that and for your community's hospitality on my trip! Tight lines!
@@backwaterbrian I dissagree there is no fish around interior islands. I am coming to Croatia for vacation every summer i just bring my dinghy and fishfinder. I do trolling around island of Rab and islands around i am looking for underwater ridges and fish around and it is great if you mark on fishfinder schools of sardines! if i find lots of sardines there is usualy lots of small predators around like horse mackarel ,Atlantic mackarel,Japanese mackarel,needle fish,Dentex,small snapers, I use rubber jig col. silver/black around 3in on hand line for horse mackerel and breams speed around 2-2,5mil Atlantic makerel ,dentex like faster trolling 4+mph and i use Yo zurri crystal minow 7cm color silver /blue or black Somethimes you can see seagulls hiting water that a feeding frenzi you just need to go there and cast poper lure or 25g jig! it is big fun you cast once and most likely you will have hit right on!Big fun but you need to be fast such feeding frienzy last 10-20min Fishing time is best in morning i go in 5 and return around 9 o clock .Averidge catch is around 10 pieces of nice size mackarel 10 in+ Good luck
@@michalzajic8602 I guess I should have clarified that it was hard to find fish while fishing from the shore. Even when I was snorkeling around some of the areas I was fishing, there didn't seem to be a lot of target species. Sure off a dinghy that is much different because you have access to deeper and more remote places with much fish. I would have LOVED to have a kayak or dinghy to explore more water! Have fun and good luck out there!
Cool story! The video shows some really fun surf with several good rides. I enjoyed watching it makes me think of many great days surfing head high waves! Rock on with your videos. Respectfully, Brian
GM. For sure! The name of your channel reminds me of my old job. Blackwater DIve Experts - ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-HzKnD-sFsIw.html
Thank you! Glad you enjoyed it. I was using both beteeen a green Yozuri Pins Minnow and a flat white 4” Keitech swim bait on a 10gram ball jig head. Most hook ups were on the Yozuri but got the grouper and the barracuda on the Keitech. That 3.5-4” inch size seemed to be the sweet spot though.

Not sure what plastic you’re referring to? I’ve always respected the ocean and routinely pick up trash every time I go down there to leave it cleaner than I found it.
The part of the lure that you see falling is still attached to the line. I put the broken piece in my pocket. I appreciate you watching the video though.
Sure thing! You will have a lot of fun. Also I found free lining a fly or a live maggot in a spinning reel off a boat to be WAY more productive than lure or bait fishing from shore (as you can see in the video) 😆. Whereas I would throw lures for hours a day and get skunked I routinely saw guys catching huge fish off the back of boats doing what I said🤷🏽♂️ Have fun and good luck!
Hi, great video! Can i ask this fishing center to get the license is at which part of lake ashi? Isit near the togendai pirate ship port or some other part of lake ashi?
Glad you enjoyed the video! The fishing center is on the north east side of the lake between the Togendai pirate ship port and next to a restaurant called Ueno. You can see the boat rental place in Google maps, that’s where it is. Good luck out there!
