Your fish at 4:16 is a Gray Tang - Also known as a Surgeon Fish (Acanthurus bahianus). Interesting to see him in open water like that. Usually they are on a reef. Most anybody that keeps saltwater fish has one of these or knows what it is.
I love the underwater camera footage !!! Not a big fish eater nor do I fish much myself, but I enjoy watching others and the excitement of them hooking those fighters !!! Excellent job !!!
I love the underwater views. It shows so much and the different types of fish available to be fished for. You guys keep up the good work and I hope your leg heals soon. 😊
@4:17 surgeonfish there are different varieties this one is very common usually in schools.. You will notice a dark 1/4" area on both sides of the base of its tail that is a spine or spur that retracts as it is now. When you catch one and grab it as fish do franticly shacking their tail, it draws and retracts it so it could cut you with it I have seen it happen.. If you grab it by the gills firmly you should be ok though pretty much anything can be eaten these fish are very thin and not worth it
Hello from Minnesota! The fish you have down there are so different from the ones in our lakes. Weird to see, to be honest! 😅 Edit: you're making me want to drop a gopro into the lake at the end of my aunt's dock! 😃
99% of youtube fisherman that was injured that bad would be at home. But Brant has nailed it I love the pier videos. It is so nice to get his insight with it also.
Hey Brant! Came down from MD with my son for the grand opening weekend and had a blast! It was great meeting u and the other guys. We fished the piers all that week and I used a sabiki rig often. The only small baitfish I caught all week were those sand perch. I didn’t know what they were and I got several different answers from the local fishermen on whether they were good to use as baitfish. Hope u heal quickly btw.
Well as I commented on your last video. This new one popped up on my for you watch. It didn't took long to see you in the next video. 😅😅 Great content 👌 and be safe and hope that leg gets better soon..
Bout to be down there this coming weekend!! Go down every year but never bring my fishing stuff. The wife has noticed me watching your videos and now wants me to bring my stuff lol.
So that fish you asked about, looks like a ring tail pen fish. However it is a little darker than the ones I have caught. Actually a decent eating fish.
Love from India 🇮🇳, as it is getting recommended here be ready to boom🎉 A little Hard Work now will surely help the RU-vid Algorithm... Work on Thumbnails and Duration❤
I love the beach views without tourists and the underwater views. I don't eat much fish but enjoy watching your videos to view the sea life, love the turtle and dolphins. Thank you, former Destin resident.💙🐟
Sorry about your accident Bro, I know that sand can be tough just to walk in, much less run! Thanks for the Beach Pier Videos, I've learned a lot from you three guys, that's usually where you will find me when I come down to the great State of Florida!
I’m no longer able to do much fishing at my age anymore and this really makes me happy to watch this. Thanks and blessings to you on a quick recovery. 🥰🙏🙏🙏 👍👍
Thanks Brandt it must be difficult not fishing felt sorry for you on the boat but you still helped out top effort mate hope you get better soon how long is the recovery.
This is awesome ❣️ I wanted to know if I lost my mind because I bought Wild caught Cod fish from Walmart and it didn't flake aprt and I had to pull it apart and that tells me that it's fake 🤯🙃😭. I was already for fish and chips. I have not bought anything from them since.. It's sad that people push Pollock fish that I don't like.. don't sell me it and call it cod fish 😵😡😡😡
Ugh. All the microplastics - you can tell by the cloudy residue resulting from the degradation of deoxy-fiber particles toxic to the environment. Soon enough there's going to be nothing left.
Watched the last viddo where you bled your calf muscle. I have been there, so sorry you sre hobbled. Thanks for posting today. Love the channel. Long time subscriber.
Love these underwater vids. Stopped by the Navarre pier on the way to Destin last Friday, lot of jack cravelle being caught, and the young man who we saw catch the first one had caught a sailfish earlier that morning.
I've seen you use both the GoPro and the GoFishCam. I've read some mixed reviews on the GFC, do you have a preference or is it more if you're going to cast it or not?
Love the vids! The " banded rudder fish" looks like a pilot fish. They are often seen with larger species like sharks, turtles, etc. Get well soon, and I look forward to visiting BBO when I travel up from S.E. FL!
Thanks Brant for showing the beautiful place you live! Prayers for a complete recovery. Don’t rush it! (As the days get warmer and the fish start biting, 🙏😎) lol
Indeed that was a Surgeon fish. ( 75 different spieces in the family ) See them on the Florida Keys / reefs. Fantastic footage ! Hope you mend soon so you can get back to fishing.
I used to fish that peer before the hurricane knocked it out. I moved away and didn't know they rebuilt it. Glad to see it back. Great footage. I like the Navarre peer also.
I'm against fishing, there's plenty of dead fish in the supermarket, and fishing is not a hobby, it's just downright cruelty, because although the fish can´t scream they surely feel pain just like you would. I'm giving my thumbs up nevertheless for the beauty of watching nature as it is without human interference.
100 years ago, when I was in my teens, I used to swim the length of that pier, well away from the fishermen, for exercise. I did that for the longest until my boyfriend took me fishing on that pier and I saw a massive shark. I decided to do laps in the pool after that. FAbulous place to grow up back then.
Many years ago I went snorkeling around the dock and pier at the Dos Palmas resort in the Philippines right after the kidnapping. There wore some Lionfish. Under the dock was packed full of fish. Some of the fish were big, I mean huge fish. Too bad it was back in the days of film cameras, I would of loved to get some pictures.
How cool! Does anybody use "minnow rings" these days to catch those alewives? When I was a kid in South Florida, we called them "greenbacks." How and why those "minnow rings" worked has always been a mystery to me. But worked, they did!
Something big passes under the camera at about 5:05, on the bottom to the right. Probably a shark. My guess is that the grey fish is a kind of chub. Cool video. It could be fun to put a chum bag out by a piling and see what comes in. Might as well put some bait out in the slick too.
Stumbled across your channel the other night and really enjoyed the content especially all the underwater GoPro stuff and will look forward to future content. Hope you get to feeling better soon from whatever your injury is. Subscribed ✅
