That is called a goofy jig with a teaser. It was south Florida that introduced that rig for pompano and other fishes like Spanish mackerel. It’s a go to rig and very popular in Florida or anywhere in the gulf coast. It’s pretty much a replacement jig for the classic pompano jig 👍🏽
Ive actually caught fish in fresh water because i remembered your tips my dude! My cousin lives some where in Florida lol and ima plan a trip to go visit her i December lol. But please post more vids im a truck driver and ive gone through almost all your videos 🤣🤣🤣
I so agree with you! Learning from locals is the best way to learn how to fish. I moved to northwest Florida 11 years ago from Washington state, and Alaska and the fishing down.here is entirely different. It took about a year of watching and talking to locals in different areas to build my own technique and now I am known in the area as the “Trout Lady” . I have been fishing since I was five years old and I’m in my late 60s now and there is nothing like fishing with locals to learn!
@Hey Skipper - I’ve fished similar methods as you commonly do from the beach. Big surf rods, heavy sinkers, bottom rigs, cut bait... it’s fun BUT I’ve recently gone light tackle only spoons and jigs and I am catching so many more fish. Granted they are smaller, but I’m catching more! It’s still fun just a new way of fishing to master and learning to be more multi dimensional in my fishing. Fishing Gulf coast TX.
one thing I love about pier fishing is how many cool folks you meet, and one reason I hate pier fishing it the whole elbow to elbow thing. I fish to relax not deal with a million lines that never move even when they see you have a fish on that is too big to just heave over the rail. But the people make it fun...thanks for the sharing but wish you spent more time on the videos like you once did. Miss those a lot. I totally am not being critical at all. Just saying I love those when it is about real fishing not hauling up minnows. That would drive me away from fishing if that was all there was to catch. Have a laugh but I actually queue up a bunch of YT fishing videos and your guys are always in the majority. It's fun to see couples & families being playful with each other not subserviently. Your video fishing with just your Mom was maybe my favorite YT fishing video, I really mean that..it was totally endearing. Erin too is a crackup when she starts catching before you can even get a line wet....hahaha, that is always the way, right?
Hi Brendon & Erin! Cyril here from Cape Town South Africa. Started fishing 2 months ago. Your videos has help me a lot to learn about surf fishing. I really enjoy watching your videos.
Two things... When a local sharpie is sharing knowledge with you, have the class to listen. 2nd thing... Don't run over another angler (when you are hooked up) without even a "excuse me"
Crazy im from the tampa area just starting to get into fishing and your channel taught me how to fish. Was not having the best of luck much at first and so I listened to what you say and ask the locals advice and eventually I found the Fish On Channel and it was awesome to see you two guys collaborate like seeing my two teachers meet up and share knowledge.
Here in Daytona I was trying the banana jig for hours with no luck. Guys next to me suggested a small maybe 3” jig with a metal ball head and small red and white skirt. They got a few pompano
When you're fishing with the Sibiti Rig, after you hook one fish, leave it down and the action on all the other hooks attracts more bites. You can pull up 4, 5, or even 6 bait fish at a time. Be prepared for others fishing the same jig to crowd around thinking you are chumming the area and want to get in on the chum.
I have been watching a lot many of your videos, you are awesome. .make a video on how u got the idea of fishing channel and hw u started stuff like that
Glad u enjoyed Tampa bay. I'm getting more into lures and artificial baits. I love that goody jig it catches everything. even when the fish won't take live baits I've caught fish on that set-up
i think this is one of the same method as "Micro Jig". Malaysian love to use this technique especially when hunting cod/threadfins and etc. you can see more technique from youtube. you should try Micro Jigging atleast once!
I add reflective mirror tape pieces on my lures. I get the tape at dollar tree all different colors. In Maryland you can't have more than two hooks per rod .
Love the content and the catches man! That pomp was NICE! By the way in that zoomed out clip of the pier I recognized another RU-vidr I follow! His name is Thony he’s a great fishing guy y’all should try and do a collaboration video! He’s from that area so he should know the ins and outs. God bless and tight lines brother
Thanks for the great video! It looks like those goofy jigs come in 3/8oz, 1/2oz and 3/4oz sizes. Which ones are best? I'm thinking 3/4oz to target the bigger fish
Great channel, videos and instructions. So many people asked where you were fishing. I think it's the smaller pier at Fort DeSoto which is actually St. Pete. Don't understand why you won't respond about the location ???
Hey bud, I follow you religiously and the other fellow both.....I'd love to fish with you both. What weight bait is that I watched this and bought a bunch of colors and 1/4 and 3/8 oz. types tonight after seeing this. I live in Bradenton and am going to Skyway Pier tomorrow to experiment. Also, I started salting my own bait and am wondering beyond salt if you have any tips. If you ever get to my neck of the woods I'd love to host you and fish with you. Tight lines brother.
Dude, you get a local expert to share good info with you and your RU-vid audience and he's willing to let you pick his brain, and then someone catches a fish and you completely ignore the guy, mid sentence, like you've never seen anyone catch a fish before. I was really looking forward to hearing and learning something new but unfourtianitly you cut him off.
