I would enjoy seeing you take your own boat out there and fish off/away from the pier. We had luck in the area (in the past) with Spanish macks, but never something as large as a Tarpon. Last week, We stayed at "Littlehouse on the Bayou" in Niceville (had planned on bringing my own boat for some fishing, SCUBA, and freediving), and spent more of our time down closer to Destin, and made a brief smelly visit to the beach of Ft. Walton to visit my brother-in-law (that had been my favorite beach, and I had previously recommended that they stay there), and it was covered in Dead fish and grass. I was strongly considering hiring you to guide my family and I in the Pensacola area. However, we only stayed there Friday night, to catch the Incredible Blue Angles Airshow on the beach. Possibly next year, we will look into spending more time in your backyard.
Pier fishing is a different kind of kind of sport..its like a game of dodge ball..keep your head moving ..never assume anything..lol..i was watching jacks video...he almost got smoked ..never ever point out over the water..if dont want 20 people casting over your line..great video brant..keep up the great work..
Man that's an awesome set up, that's the set up you use in the panhandle!! Best set up for out there and YES so another video there, and you should also go out there at sunrise one day and catch a limit of Spanish in the morning just throw a gotcha and boom
I mean, im not saying it has to be tarpon or that pier specifically.. but i would be very cool with more pier videos in general. Love your channel, keep it up. Thanks
You forgot the "I" after the first and Brant. I love pier fishing so definitely would be interested in seeing some more videos out there. Maybe give up some tips and tricks.
Go back for sure Brant I love to see some good pier fishing and best of luck to you. Also if you catch a Bonita or anything out there you could make it into a catch and cook cause who doesn't love those!
AnglerUp with Brant I love doing pier fishing. We used to vacation at St George Island and I have seen tarpon there on the old highway pier. Now since I moved to Bradenton, FL we fish the Skyway Pier and have hooked a couple. But usually they are off after a jump or two!
And by the way.....is it possible that Tarpon is actually good but just a pain to clean? Maybe it would eat like one of those other types of fish that people don't generally eat that you've featured on some of your catch and cook videos..........from watching those vids you've been surprised by a couple of them. Guarantee you'd be the only catch and cook Tarpon vid on RU-vid! Heck I don't even know if it is legal to keep them.
you should go back nut you should also fish with me I live in fort Walton I hve been dming you to fish with you and you said you would hmu but neverdid still you are my favorite fishing youtube keep up the good content
Was out there yesterday afternoon and around 1630 someone hooked up on a reallllly nice sized one and walked it down the pier a ways. I was satisfied with catching Remora and blue runner on sabikis and cut bait, and after remembering your catch and cook episode with them I tried it and it wasn't bad. Thanks for giving fish equal rights as to tastiness lol. Keep on keepin on.
Not to tell you off or anything but I think you shouldn't be using braid with those guides because when u hook up on a huge fish the braid will saw through your guides unless you have ceramic but I'm not 100% sure lol.
LOL If you aren't 100% sure you should probably not say anything. That's a lesson I have learned in life. That's a $1000 combo built specifically for monster fish off the pier. Braided line is a must on that pier for two reasons. Casting distance is one of them and strength is the second. That exact combo with braid has pulled in 25 Tarpon over the last year that have weighed anywhere from 70 to 120 pounds. Those guides are a lot stronger than ceramic.
That pier is great if you like being completely stressed out while trying to fish. You haven't lived until you see everyone casting sabiki's three feet from each other...
best part was when yak says "I thought somebody was gonna get hooked" defiantly go back just take some body Armour it gets crazy sometimes out in kaloosa pier
So my auntie was fishing and a guy was running with a jack carvelle and we all ducked under him andy auntie accidentally hit his glasses and it went in the water and he said she had to pay it but she left cause she wansnt paying and then he told me and my family f y'all was it my aunt fault or that guy?? And yesa this was at Okaloosa Pier
