How To Find Dolphin, Mahi, Dorado on Weedlines - ReelReports 

The only gripe I have with this reel is the weight, but that goes with the size of the reel ru-vid.comUgkxM68VkfsQhHaabDce1IwOCXuvumcpbZ_k . I brought this salmon fishing up in Oswego, NY. I coupled it with a Cabela's Whuppin Stick. I had no problem pulling in a 14lb salmon. I will probably use this for surf fishing this summer and downgrade to a 3500 series Battle II next salmon season to save my wrists. All of the operations are butter smooth and the bail is nice and thick and has a solid flip to it. Everything about this reel is sturdy and strong. The drag system held up to the salmon and was also super smooth. I did use a scale to set the drag properly before going out to the river and this worked out tremendously. A bunch of other guys on the river would hook up and snap almost immediately. Just because you have a good drag system doesn't do anything if you don't set it correctly.

Excellent video. One of the best takeaways from this video is the use of a dehooker. They no doubt reduce fish mortality and keep your boat slime free and cleaner.

Triggerfish and Tripletail under that seaweed patch! Awesome video and info Mike

Capt Mike another another great video. About releasing small mahi I don’t know how many I have injured as I tried different ways to release them but your release technic with the long dehooker is a revelation...thank you you have have done a public service my friend...

Triple tail! Thanks for all you do - always a learning experience watching your vids!

The best produced fishing video I've watched yet and I just discovered this channel. Great work!!

Another GREAT video! Protect our fisheries by great practices and conservation as demonstrated in this video. Thanks Captain Mike! Obviously Triple Tail (I know I'm late, I gotta work!) Great information and detail! I too love to share my catch with "shore people" to spread the love. Have you ever considered taking Victor fishing with you? That'd really be an awesome video. Peace & Love, Slimy Thumbs Up!

Love the video, thanks Captain Mike

That's a Triple Tail! Thanks for another great video Mike!

HI there from NZ. Great instructional video. It's a TRIPLE TAIL. I have actually learned that from watching another Florida fishing video. We don't have Mahi Mahi where I am from. But my friend caught a big bull Mahi Mahi in Rarotonga a few months ago. He gave me some to try.

I like how he’s just having a nice conversation while fighting a fish

Excellent video cap Mike

te felicito muy bueno tu canal y los progrmas muy instructivos

Great vids as always capt. Good to see my home waters again grew up fishing out of haulover for dolphin. I know you're rushing but that fillet job could be alot better. lol

Always informative Capt Mike. love how you throw that big cast net. do you have a video on how to load it up ,with the end over your shoulder? that seems to take the place of holding net in teeth? thanks john

Triple tail !! Thank you for all the tips and tricks you give us!

That roe you threw out is delicious! Great video

Really good video. Technology use is great and I like how you help the species

Great video, The fish eggs you threw are very sought after here in the uae and the arabian gulf as the locals love them!

As always, another great adventure. Let’s do it again!

Thanks for the video. What kind of knot do you use for you leader and mainline to catch mahis?

New to salt water fishing, hadn't seen a release tool. You mention not linking to the one in this video because you like others better. Can you recommend one? Looked up and found Atlantic triple tail. Looks like they can get pretty big too!

Awesome video. Thanks for being the consummate sportsman. I wish there were more with that attitude…

Awesome video!! Would you mind more detail on how you clean fish?

Great video and I like your conservation efforts.

Thanks captain. Great video

Triple Tail, another great video Captain!

Where did you order those Daiwa BG 4000 reels from?? Can’t find any in the under $100 price range.

Those guys look like a triple tail. Great video digging the conservation side of it!

I really enjoy your videos, glad I subscribed. Btw triple tail.

Awesome video!

Well I’m just viewing your video and I see it’s 3 years old so I’m sure I’m not winning any hats lol but that was a triple tail. I’m subscribing! Great video thanks

Tripletail-Not sure if the giveaway happened or not. 1st episode I watched. Kinda running out of people to watch and learn from. You have a very good show. You throw out a lot of useful information for people like me. Looking to buy a boat and been learning everyday. I use to fish in Bal Harbor in the inlet were you stopped to give the guy the Mahi. That's pretty nice gesture. I'm sure he appreciated that. Well Done. Shawn Fort Lauderdale

Where do you fish out of for them and how far do you have to travel. I'm in Galveston TX

Triple Tail! Great video.

Triple Tail! Great work with this video.

Great Work!!

Triple tale, where can one get that fish cooler/bag you have in the video?

Thank you for taking the time in educating the fishing community thus preserving fish populations for future generations. Keep up the good work.

Loving your vids here in NZ and if you are ever here I'll take you out for a fish in our waters! Just wondering where you got your sweet kicks from?

Thanks for great informative video.

Hey Mike, any chance you can do a video of catching bait out of Port Everglades.

Any way I can set up a charter? Be there this weekend.

Excellent video 👌😊

Triple tail, thanks for the great video.

Also saw you tossed the egg sack. Fried Michi egg sack tastes great! You should try it.
