CHUMMING INSHORE with shad to attract the fish - actually worked? 

Love the respect you have for the ecosystem while still enjoying yourself

Same reason why I spend a little extra time near the crab pots while I'm wading. Nice vid, Coop!

Love watching all your videos and hearing the music that you play on those videos.

Dude, the quality of your videos and amazing angles/shots that you get all while doing this all by yourself is AMAZING. Keep up the great work.

Coop! Been watching since the 40k days... couple years now. You're my favorite, your excitement inspires me to fish like I used to and your editing gets better every video. Love ya man!

Glad to see someone catching something. The past few weeks, the only thing tightening my line has been seaweed.

Coop, you just keep knocking it out of the park! The background tracks and your funky edits make my day every time you upload. Gotta be one of the best channels out there. Keep doing you my guy. God bless.

Respect for answering all of the 1000+ comments. I'm assuming you answered all of them because my thumb got tired scrolling down so I never got to the end. Get yourself a meat grinder and grind up all your fish scraps and freeze them in manageable blocks for chumming. A Teflon bread pan works great. After they're frozen just store in cheap old school freezer bags with twist ties. A mesh laundry bag with a draw string (for lady's delicates) works good as a chum bag. Long time subscriber from the bicycle days.

Been a while Coop, good to see your still catching em on these crazy windy days. Tight lines buddy.

Bro I was just looking at your channel thinking damn coop ain't uploaded in a few weeks

Hey man I’ve followed your channel for a while now. The first vid I saw of you had some osrs music in it and I just kept comin back. Keep up the content man I appreciate you for it👍

Man im from Bulgaria , i been watching you since 50k and appreciate the work you are doing.Keep at it! +those silly cuts always crack me up ;D

Coop: "all we need is 3" and we're good" Everyone watching: "that's what she said" Love your content Coop.

What's up keep on doing those great videos from Ana n Omar Olvera from Brownsville Texas

Thanks for doing what you do! I have been fallowing for a long while and have picked up some great tips for fishing our Texas waters. Keep it up fella!

Live in Costa Rica and use chum all the time. Works great. I always scale the bait then cut it up. Will bring fish up from the bottom when fishing in 90 feet of water

Coop, can you do a video explaining how you locate grass flats/spots before you go fishing?

"This guy is not a smart guy"...slips off the hook and evades its captor.. LOL

Yeah bro keep it up. I live in Hawaii but your one of my favorite you tube channels. Grew up on east coast Chesapeake Bay so I enjoy your local fishing style. Great job.

I been watching your videos for about 4 years now and I just want to say the quality of your videos just get better and better . Keep up the amazing work.

Hey Coop, I live on the Texas south coast near CC too! Ever thought about doing a meet and fish with a fan/fans?

(teenage girl screech) OMG THRESHER I LOVE YOU! (faints when he hearts my comment) Keep up the high quality vids coop. I’ll always watch and share em

Thank you for all the knowledge and expertise. As well as the excitement of seeing a new video pop up. Can't click on any video faster...we all appreciate you!

Bro so like I started wacthing when you did the fishing to survive thing. And I just found your channel again you’ve really gone up

They thresher when are you gonna do some more live streams? It's been a minute!

Missed watching you Cooper! Please keep the videos coming....but it’s hard to do better than that sick day on the beach catching Jacks...one of your best videos ever!!!! Stay safe out there.

There is a restaurant over the water in Antioch, California, and between it and the shore, only 8 feet, I think they were dropping fish parts, because you could catch the biggest fish in that spot. Almost funny to see people bring up one as big as a 4th grade kid in size. Now I live in northern Italy and here they catch some HUGE fish in the rivers that empty into the Adriatic Sea. I enjoy your videos, and I know how much work you put into them as I was a site administrator for my school where i taught. Love your music choices. ciao

I live in Corpus and really enjoy your videos brother. I watch EVERY video you post!!! Not only great content, but the quality of your videos have gotten way better!! Hope to continue to see your videos Coop, fish on!!!

On windy days I go out to Rincon bayou off Joe Fulton corridor. The islands back there provide real good cover from the wind and the reds seem to like that idea also!

I have never fished the ocean but you make it look so fun. Keep up the great videos and love your passion for the sport!

Coop, really enjoy the vids. I like how you explain things you see that we can't. How you explain what you're doing and why. Very informative. Good job. My wife always knows when I'm on cooper-vision cause she will hear your laugh. Ha.

100% you should guide… let us know when you do and I’ll hop on! Tight lines man! Love the vids

Hey Coop! Been really enjoying your videos, I started watching you way back during your first surf vids at PINS. Greetings from Louisiana!

Yoyo coming all the way from Cape Town South Africa. Love your videos it's super entertaining... 🎣

Awesome video man! Gotta do what works and that chumming seemed to work. I agree releasing reds in shallow water can get them acting funky. I did enjoy seeing all the tackle on your dashboard. That’s how you know a real fisherman, lol. Glad I’m not the only one that has a tackle shop in his truck at all times. Can’t wait for the next video!

Love watching your channel. I used to live in Louisiana and Mississippi miss fishing in the gulf for reds and speckled trout.

Ayy Coop! Love your content bro, I've learned so much from you. You're motivational to say the least. Mad love from San Antonio!

Love your videos , I'm 63 and have learned something from you

Much love Coop. I watched some of the stream but my connection crapped out. Stay positive brother. Just a quick tip: use a cheap dollar store mesh laundry bag for chumming. Easy to replace and super cheap. Chumming works on even lousy days though. When the ecosystem isn't in your favor, create your own. Would love to fish with you someday.

Great to see you back Coop!

How bout a little mash potato action with your chum? Try a meat grinder on your recipe first at home and then freeze your concoction in containers at the size you need to be able to fit it into your bag. As it thaws and a little wave action comes along, you will have a perfect slick! It is fun to make up your recipe. With some observant practice you will find the right blend! The fish will tell you what they like. Tight lines and keep on fishing! Stay safe and healthy!

Sickkk vid Coop. Bunker heads has been the ticket for striped bass in NJ.👍

Whats up dude?? Looked like you really know what your doing with these experiments. Great video, down here in Sugarland, Texas. Tight lines never stop brother!!

Keep up the great content. Been watching your stuff for years now and it's been great watching the channel grow.

Where you been Coop, had us worried! Great video as always. Hope all is well! Looking forward for the next one. Let’s go!

Love the videos. Getting me pumped to get back to CC and get back out on the water. Been out of the country for 8 months, ready to get back.

Long time listener first time caller. 😁 You produce the best fishing videos on YT! Thanks and keep them coming.

Love your channel, As a fellow RU-vid here in New Orleans I love to watch fishing in all these cool ways and places.... Keep up the good work.

Been feignin for that new Thresher video.... FINALLY

Good stuff coop, was wondering when you would be back out. I've been replaying some of your old videos waiting for some new stuff. Thanks for taking us out there.

Coop! Love the videos man. Don’t keep us waiting too long we love watching you fish! Maybe drop a video on your favorite rig setups!

I use to live in port a worked for fisherman’s wharf before and during Harvey. Always watch your videos and fished down from you a few times on the north jettie

Yo threasher! I started watching you last year I have see all your vids. I sometimes go back and rewatch them. Learned a lot from you. Wish you could do more content but keep it up my guy!

Whenever you get a chance you should come on Over here to rockport love to have you out this way!!

Hey coop! I think I passed you on your boat one day coming while I was coming back from bay fishing and I got so excited! I also wanted to let you know that the patreon tutorials and fishing reports are really helpful! Anyways great vid as always, Tight lines!

Always fun coming down to fish in Aransas pass/ Port A. Really enjoy watching and learning from you to improve my game!

Thanks for the video! Hoping you do a livestream from the jetty soon!

I love it bro keep on catching em I look forward to watching you every week. I watch your vids to get me pumped up I love your energy keep up the great work keep grinding 🤙🏼

Great video, man! I love the idea of chumming for Reds. Between the wind and the rain, it has been tough fishing! Glad to see you hooked up to a few.

Hey me and my grandfather are both big fans of your videos (personally my favorite RU-vidr) you make some awesome vids. Also thanks for being chill taking a pic with me when I saw ya out at oso one day and sorry I forgot your name at the moment Cooper I was a little excited and couldn’t remember what it was. Keep on killin’ it man!

Wanting a "That's a keeper sheeper for sure!" Shirt real bad. Keep up the vids man and I will keep watching.

I always love your videos! Always positive vibes. & you fish in places I haven’t been so super awesome!

Yo coop, what is up brother! Your content is top notch and it’s amazing to see your skills just get to such a mastery level. Shad bag was key to success and low key smart to show how you have to adapt to your conditions. Tight lines and peace ✌🏽

Fished West Bay in Galveston and it was trout all damn day on live shrimp ended up leaving with the limit. Till that day I had never caught a 20+" trout and it was a great time. It was made better as I waited on my friend to finish off his last few shrimp I decided to throw a Saltwater Assassin 5" chicken on a chain on a weedless weighted hook. I ran and popped it along the bottom to get slammed by a 27" spec. That was my 5th and final fish of the day. Keep up the videos they're good info and well made. Maybe I'll see you down in Port A one day.

Always enjoy your vids, hope all works out with your whip and u get back out doing your thing. Much luv from BMORE

Love your videos! Always gives me ideas for fishing around Galveston! Tight lines from Houston brother!!

Always wanted to meet you and you’re my dad and I motivation we moved shortly after we were going to find you by your live videos.

Coooooop! The boys and I love watching your vids man. I hope all is well with you. Much love from Fl.

I’m always waiting for that next video, great content coop:)

You rock dude. I'd love to see a video where you venture into FRESH WATER (!!!), since I don't think I've seen you hit hit up any Bass ponds. It'd be interesting to see an experienced salt guy try out the mud & lillipads.

I've been struggling lately with these high winds locating the reds. I never thought of chumming the Flats I fish. Nice video my friend.

Went to PINS this last weekend with the fam. My brother caught a blue crab off the surf, it clamped onto the mondo worm he was throwing. Soon as we rigged him up for bait i walked out to chest deep water and cast him. I caught my first Gaftopsail, a 20" fatty. I never knew they fought so hard! My brother caught a giant ladyfish on his half of crab too. BLUE CRAB IS THE TRUTH

What’s up bro I grew up in Portland been fishing all the ares you film in. I appreciate all of the knowledge you share. Hope you see you out there sling a line in the future. Keep the content fishy brother. ✌️🎣🎣

Great video! One of the best fishing channels on youtube by far

Good old BnR. I almost always get an lg right at the cut heading into that flat. Always enjoy your videos man!

ooo that private reserve chum, spare no expense my man!

Yo! How enthusiastic and thorough as you are, I wish you were located in SoCal. There aren't many good channels for my area.

Your videos all fire man I wish I can fish with you!!! I’m from port Isabel tx

My friend and I come to corpus to ride my waverunners several times a year. We always look for you just to say hello. :)

Your my favorite fishing RU-vidr bro

What’s up coop, you the man, been watching since you were only a much smaller channel, you just are so real and have such a great personality. Some of the goofy stuff you say remind me of myself

What up coop. Great idea and proper chumming! Glad you didnt get a bunch of hardy boys.

Literally my fishing idol, from the corpus area as well but i sure as hell don’t catch like you man. keep up the good work.

been watching you since 100k probably) Great content, love your catch'n'cook videos) Keep up the good work, Coop!

Coop, I’ve been watching you from pretty much your first video man and I just gotta say “niiice fiish, Blair.” Blair Wiggins was my dang idol growin up my dude! Love it every time you quote that episode. And the RS music dude... keep it up. Just recently moved to Port Arthur for work and been rewatching your vids, you’re keepin me motivated to get after them flat bois out here my guy! Waiting for November when the sea monsters roll through. One day, if the stars align, maybe I’ll get to say what’s up at the jetties.

Great video pimp I always look forward to watching you catch fish and more specifically, your reactions to catching fish 😂

thresher idk how but you’re a god at fishing

Catching reds (and any other fish lol) on strange artificial is always dope. My favorite thing to do is catch saltwater fish on artificials that are meant for fresh water.

Still your biggest fan! Great video! I love how much you love fishing! Hope to see you on Packery again some time!

Coop - you should do another wade fishing video with your Pops. That was a good one. I also liked your video with the generate song, and your survival series was pretty entertaining as well. I’m off to Florida tomorrow to catch tarpon and snook for four days, wish you could join us.

Haven't watched a video in a while but glad to see you in my recommended! Subscribed

Cool vids man. I fish down in Corpus every now and then. I have a good buddy that lives down there . Keep the videos coming.

Great video Thresher. Seen you a few times on 361 slanted concrete. I have fished 9 days straight with little to some luck, gotta grind to figure it all out. Tight lines brotha

As Corpus Christi native love to see the content keep up the great work man! ✌🏾

I miss the shark fishing live streams. Been watching for years keep up the great work love your videos

Another great fishing adventure Coop! And yes, the chum works!!! I hit like button as soon as I opened your video cause I always like them. Keep them coming brother! Any shark fishing this summer? It has been a while since you did it.

Yooo my dudeee! Love your videos mann! Keep it up my guy! Much love from Singapore! 🇸🇬

I don't have much to say, but hey coop! Appreciate the content. It's great watching!

I did this once at the coast on the beach. Next time I'll use a PVC pipe and then put the bag on it and put some shrimp and stuff in it. Only thing is I bet sometimes it just goes down shore to the left or right of you and if it drags on the fish might get confused? Was too lazy that day but I bet it would work. Was thinking of using fish bites as the bait too. Idk

Love your videos, bro. When we go fishing it's always in that area and we're from Missouri.
