I just found your channel. Watched a ton of your old videos and of course I hit the button to follow you. I don't follow many channel because I watch these video to learn and if they cant answer questions from time to time I don;t follow. You appear to answer questions so I am on board. LOL, I do have a couple of questions for you since I am thinking about moving your direction in the next few years. How far off shore do you have to fish to catch Mai mai. and are they easy to catch on your area? I live on the east coast and they are every where. Also from the video I have seen on your channel most of them make the ocean look like a lake its so calm. Is the normal in your area>?
Very much agree. Baba seems to truly enjoying himself, which gives me a relaxing experience. I am tired of youtuners yelling at the camera and begging for subscription.
Really enjoyed this one with the GoPro action. I believe that the noise that was picked up was the GoPro itself, the auto focus. It wasn't a buoy because they usually are monotone. Great job and respects from one Bama born to another.
Since your dropping straight down at the seawall how about mounting your Go-Pro to a pole and put it in the water so as to watch your bait. That would be so cool watching bait reactions and fish taking bait. Fix up a setup that will hang the camera hands free.
I’ve dove around thousands of structures. I’m always amazed how much life there is. Even out in the middle of flats where there are no bottom structures one small bump or drop will be teaming with life. The ocean is amazing.
I’ve heard thot sound in the water since the mid 90s from Miami to Orange Beach. I’ve been fishing on piers at night when it’s quiet, and heard it above the water surface. Nobody with me has ever heard it. Can’t wait to show this sound to my wife. So glad I’m not crazy. 🤔 Thanks Man great vid.
Just so you know that sound is just the pressure of the water on the go pros microphone and the go pro itself nothing else. Edit: also the water is a little bit dusty and the microphones become very sensitive because of the pressure they take under the water and that may be the sound of small grains of sand, dust, pebbles etc.
It would be interesting to see how the bait behaves in the hook on a underwater shot! Maybe we could learn how different hook placements make it more or less enticing to fish!
That sound may be the buoy outside the pass. It used to have a wave activated horn on it that tooted as the buoy moved up and down. Check it out next time you go out.
No that buoy is over a thousand yards away and the sound it makes is above the water. that sound is made by cars driving over the bridge and hitting the metal strips in the road between the expansions. The crackling sound is barnacles. I have dove that rascal a thousand times.
@@bradleycrenshaw6778 im not so sure about that one only because if it were cars, you'd get two very quick pulses with the sound as the front tires and the rear tires hit the strips in sequence. the intervals were too random for that. i liked the idea of the buoys at first because water conducts sound phenomenally. It could be feasible to hear them from that far away but then again, no matter where he dropped the go-pro, the volume of the sound appeared to be exactly the same. thats another point against both the buoys and the bridge. I think the guy that mentioned the sound the go-pro makes as it focuses in and out might be onto something.
Dude, I use to go snorkeling across the pass along the jetties when I was a kid. I would go during slack tide, visibility would be very good. I would see tropical fish amoung the rocks and get stung by the jellyfish. I wouldn't snorkel around the bridge, too much boat traffic and it was deep. Didn't want to run into a bull shark down there. The video was great, always wondered what was around the seawall, thanks for sharing!
REALLY like your underwater video. The pier was great, as is this one from the pass. Would be pretty cool to see what's around the bridge pilings, especially during sheepshead season. Great job!!!
I think that beeping sound is when the automobile tires are hitting the cracks in the overpass. The sound resonates through the rebar and then under the water.
The crackling noise is "live bottom ". It is a combo of all the barnacles and other small soft corals and crustaceans coating everything. I am surprised you didn't see any stone crabs.
Shrimp are super loud . 1khz to 20khz. Carries really well in water. Up to 200 decibels. With a lot of shrimp around you get that constant crackling noise
Thanks Steve, your content is the best and most enjoyable. That noise, the only thing I can think of is if your go pro has autofocus, it would be the lens adjusting to the view.
I think my son and I were fishing next to you on the sea wall on Monday. We had live shrimp which got destroyed by the pin fish. Wish I had known before the mangroves like the little fishies better. Good stuff man keep it up.
On that dropshot rig you did take the tag end of the line when you tie your palomar knot and put it back through the eye of the hook if you want it to stay positioned upright!
Really neat watching the life beneath the water, glad that the water was clear enough to see what was swimming around. Would definitely watch more videos of the local wildlife under water. 👍✌️
I think the sound is the go-pro lense actuating. The opening and closing of the go pros aperture to adjust for light and clarity. The water is just carrying the noise of the internals back to the microphone.
That crackling sound is from all the snapping shrimp. I have been snorkeling and diving from key west up the east coast and in the gulf. you hear them everywhere there is rock formations
The sound, in my experience, is the rocks... when we're out in Tampa Bay, and over rocks, the boat crackles like that. Old school fish finder in relatively shallow water...
While this video shows-off the beauty of Alabama’s Gulf Coast, it doesn’t exhibit how increadibly beautiful it is in Orange Beach/Gulf Shores. Used to live in Baldwin county, in Foley. My ex wanted to be closer to.his 85 year-old mother, who turned out to be mean as hell when she trapped me in her web. It’s so beautiful down there, even during the winter months. If I could move back, I’d pack my bags right after posting this comment. Unfortunately, I’ve been priced-out of that area. It’s like a piece of Heaven on earth.🐬🌴☀👙⚓🦀💔😔
I did this at the Fort Walton pier and got the same noise. I decided to use an external waterproof case and it seemed to help. The only thing I can think of is the pressure under the water is messing with the mic.
That crackling noise is small snapping shrimp that are making that noise. They have a specialized claw that snaps the water making the crackling and popping noise you can hear on the go pro. You hear it all the time diving and snorkeling around rocky areas. I am almost 100% sure that is what that noise is. I'm a marine biologist so I should know right lol.
The sound has got to be the autofocus. It's always happening when either the water is murky (making it difficult for it to get a good focus) or when objects are moving in and out of the frame causing the focus point to change.
@@DogBeach I thought the GoPro Hero 10 did? If it's not that then maybe the internal accelerometer? It's clearly some soft of mechanical system inside the camera.
@@DogBeach That is technically incorrect. The GoPro has a gyroscope inside of it (made by Bosch) which definitely does having moving parts, although they are extremely tiny. Perhaps the lens portion has no moving parts, but the camera, as a whole does. Although, I'm not sure that explains this noise.
You are my second channel today that has caught that underwater audio....the other was whales "chatting" it was phenomenal....I would venture you captured some lovely underwater beings singing! Glad you keep the raw stuff...I love ALL the natural sounds...you don't need music to make these videos more appealing!
i was just there the other day. i live in perdido as well. ride my jetski under the bama bridge just about every weekend. love the area and the water there. been wondering whats down there! lol that inlet is usally pretty choppy. nice vid though! for sure going to follow your channel!
Love these. Get the waterproof case for your GoPro. It’s good to like 190 feet. Might need a light too. These videos are awesome, any investment you make to these kinds of videos will be worth it as long as a shark doesn’t it eat.
The crackle sound around 3:50 is the sand/debris in the water hitting the camera. I used to get a similar sound on the bottom of aluminum my boat when it didn't have a floor in it.
I don't get to go fishing as much as I'd like- or rather I get discouraged shore fishing here in NC, so it's nice to go fishing vicariously through you lol. And you're just a good friggin dude to boot. Tight lines brother!
I dropped mine at the pier last week, it was kinda murky, but saw nice fish down there, I plan to post it on my channel pretty soon! Here’s an idea tho, maybe try to record your bait and the fish getting it!
FANTASTIC CLARITY !! Wow your video when fishing was super clear great 👍. Your go pro videos was good stuff .... Educating us viewers of what's going on down there .... Dont mind me asking your go pro model underwater and how much is it .... Must get one of these cool gadget's.... Thanks for the great video again 👍
Could you drop the GoPro down at some of your waypoints? It would be cool to see some of the structure your fishing around! Love the content and God bless!
the sound I think is the focusing motor on the camera. sound travels better in water so it would make sense that you can hear it when you aren't using a housing. I could be wrong but it defiantly sounds like some sort of electric motor to me.
You would catch way more mangroves in that spot freelining. Just put the hook at the end of your line and add a little split shot 12” up depending on current go bigger or smaller. Let your line drift with the current. The way your fishing looks fake to the fish. The older wiser fish won’t bite that.
Great video! Driven over that bridge dozens of times, nice to see what's down there. That beep sound sounded like a comm signal since it was repetitive and constant. Probably a buoy management system in my humble expert WAG.
