Mind blowing! You are the only person I have ever heard of catching Snook or Barracuda in the Panhandle.

@oafishing 11 месяцев назад

I wish I could say I have been the only one, but that's not the case. I had seen rare reports of snook being caught in the panhandle and never really believed it until this trip. I've had a couple of friends catch barracuda in the Santa Rosa Sound and I was very surprised that I caught both in the same area. Hopefully the snook numbers grow and they adapt to survive the cold temps during winter.

Wait there's snook here in choctawhatchee bay!😮 That's amazing!!!!!

@oafishing Год назад

Yes, there is! I'm hoping the population continues to grow in this area.

@jbreefer148 Год назад

@@oafishing Salt strong said they were moving North and now I'm a believer.

@andyt4714 Год назад

Great video! I have not heard of snook in this area or baracuda in the backwaters until now! I am learning from you, young man, and I hope to run into you on the water someday.

@oafishing Год назад

Thanks Andy! I've seen reports of other people catching snook in this area on rare occasions. The barracuda surprised me with it being that far back in brackish water. Hopefully what I'm sharing helps you catch more fish and maybe one day we will run into each other.

This is such an awesome day of fishing.

@oafishing 2 месяца назад

It was one of the best. I couldn't believe how much action was in that one area.

@hookcraft1984 Год назад

Can’t believe there’s a whole population of snook living in such a little creek. Great job man! 👍🏼

@oafishing Год назад

For real right?! I hope the numbers continue to increase and aren't susceptible to cold weather. Thanks bro!

@highnoon116 Год назад

Great casting in a narrow environment! Thanks for taking us along. High Noon

@oafishing Год назад

I'm just glad those fish were there this time. I've fished this area a few times before and it had never been this good. Thanks for watching!

@calebpresley1587 11 месяцев назад

You ever make a video of your set up?

@oafishing 11 месяцев назад

I made one a couple of years ago but do need to make an updated one. I'm out for work for a couple of more months and will be making an updated one when I get back focusing on the kayak and rod/reel setup. Here is the link for that other vid ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-6tVhManKUHA.html

'what the heck is goin on!?' LOL for real! Never would of guessed you hooked those snook there. What a day!

@oafishing Год назад

For real bro! Crazy how that day played out!

@ckwoutdoors Год назад

*Google Earthing intensifies*

@oafishing Год назад

No doubt! lol

@CoastalHighCountry Год назад

Wow, they were stacked up in that shallow stretch. Probably a dark bottom that has that water warmer than the rest of the bayous. Nice work.

@oafishing Год назад

They sure were! That would be my guess too or a deeper hole they can hang out during the cold snaps. Thank brother!

@Kayak_Googan Год назад

Take me on the Snook Charter! 😂

@oafishing Год назад

I’ll do it if you put me on some tuna next season!

@Kayak_Googan Год назад

@@oafishing this is the way

@JoeBucherVideo Год назад

Hot spot! Crushing em on jerkbaits! The snook catches are so cool and surprising. 👊

@oafishing Год назад

It sure was! That ripstop got it done! I hope this population continues to grow and becomes sustainable and immune to the cold.

@FishfearmeStudios Год назад

Cool. I would love to catch a snook someday

@oafishing Год назад

Just gotta get down to Florida brother!

@erico5865 Год назад

Congrats Omar on finding the ONLY spot that doesn't have white caps in the entire panhandle LOL! Nice vid man!

@oafishing Год назад

Thanks bro! Top secret location lol!😆

@longfinoutfitters3105 Год назад

Hopefully the snook population grows

@oafishing Год назад

That's what I'm hoping too.

@cycadence2577 Год назад

Gee, no Tarpon action? 🙂 Nicely done!!!

@oafishing Год назад

That's what I'm saying! At the rate things were going I thought that could've happened. Thank you!

@htx-polestar5377 Год назад

Freaking snook highway! Keep that spot in the back pocket!

@oafishing Год назад

That spot surprised the hell out of me! I will bro!

@andrewlegrow-zm8td Год назад

Where were you and where did you launch? I’m getting back into kayak fishing, I need areas to launch, and fyi I catch and release. I will occasionally eat one.

@oafishing Год назад

Sorry but I hope you understand that I can't give out this location. I will on occasion give out certain spots. I recommend the GoPaddling App that shows a lot of kayak launch spots.

@andrewlegrow-zm8td Год назад

No problem ,I would probably do the same but I had to ask ,otherwise you don’t get. Thank you on the go paddling app that’s gonna be really handy. I really enjoy your videos as well. They’re quite informative and very educational

@oafishing Год назад

@@andrewlegrow-zm8td that's true, never know unless you ask. That paddling app has helped me out. I appreciate you enjoying the vids and hopefully they are helpful. I just remember being a new kayak angler and trying to figure it out so why not share my experiences and knowledge for others to learn from.

Need more proof of climate change? I seen thousands of Tarpon last Oct migrating in Panama City. Used to be a pod of 10 or 15 randomly, then thousands. Might make fishing better but it also makes hurrricanes worse.

@oafishing 2 месяца назад

I think the snook may be adapting to the colder temps and as for tarpon they are a protected species and can see how their numbers have grown over the years. I've seen a lot more in the bay during the summer and they do push all the way to 331 bridge.
