Thanks for the recipe and I love that you complimented Melanie and she just gave it right back!!!! You two are great. Thanks for showing me that Gotcha plug today. Being a newer Gulf resident I’ve learned a bunch from you. Thanks for that!
I used to live on that pier 😅 I stayed fishing on there and would even stay over night some times! The over night bite is pretty cool depending on the time of year. Some great fishing on that pier!
Yep when I lived in GulfBreeze,1961-63, I would fish all night trying to catch sharks. We would have a ball eating chocolate double dipped donuts from a small bakery in P’cola. No problem with the druggies because the biggest problem was the drunks who wouldn’t venture out on the pier because there were no bars close to the beach and the police had a no tolerance attitude to bad behavior not like today.
Thanks a bunch for sharing the family recipe. Caught my first king offshore this week, smoked it and made the dip. Totally delicious, especially on toasted piece of French bread!
Outstanding video, as always, Brandt. I can't wait to try that recipe! And you mentioned mackerel sashimi. So many people shy away from that because it has such a distinct, oily taste. But those oils are loaded with Omega six fatty acids, which everyone knows are very good for you. And I frankly just love the taste!
Glad to see the macks running heavy!! Cant wait to be on this pier on memorial day weekend!!! Got a new penn rampage with a new penn fierce 4 to try out...
I sprayed my steel leaders with krylon camo green paint. Solved the hitting problem. It's a flat green that vanished in Gulf water, and it knocks the shine off the leader.
Awesome video love the content definitely going to try and make it over for the Grand Opening I’m just an hour east of Pensacola in the Crestview area.
Man, that dip looks phenomenal! When I do a smoked fish dip similar to this, I always try to use blue corn tortilla chips. To me, they taste a bit sweeter and really compliment the smoky, savory flavor of the dip.
If I had a dime for every Gotcha plug I've lost in the last 20 years, I'd have already built my dream bungalow somewhere in the Gulf. I've used Gotcha's in Virginia Beach, the OBX, New Smyrna beach and the Skyway Pier in St. Petersburg. When the spanish show up in March and April, it's some of the best fishing anywhere. Thanks Brant, for another fantastic video!
Brant i follow about 10 you tubers over the world but i must say when it come to bet my money will be on you and the other you tubers reckon themself as the best
Remember that from the pier a cobia looks a lot like a shark. And cobia will follow big bull sharks. Sight fishin' for Spanish mackerel is pretty cool. I've made smoked mackerel spread before with kings and Spanish lots and a couple times with cobia. If you get a chance to try it with cobia it's pretty awesome too.
Great video Brant! You had some awesome catching on this one. I have taken a pic of your recipe and will definitely be trying with fish smoked on my Traeger. No offense to you, but as a foodie, I would much rather have watched Melanie make this, as she explains things way better on the cook. I do love your family’s history, as I know it’s part of who we are. Awesome video!!!
Got my new Ninja Dagger travel rod yesterday!!! Love the two tip sections. Going to use it this summer with the mystery tackle tournament pack from you. What the actual heck??? 😆🤣 But then in St John USVI this winter!
When my family moved to GulfBreeze,1961, my family would get to the beach early so that my mother could put her chair in the shade under the pier. I would fish the pier while she watched my brother and sister. Mother loved to fish on the old bridge in the bay. We would catch a bucket full of trout. Moved back to SC in 1963.
No Kings have been caught as of 4:00 p.m. today for the year on Pensacola Beach Pier however there have been several bite offs. Spanish have been good but not guaranteed. A couple of Cobia have been caught already and the Pompano's have been on fire one day and gone the next. Sheephead and Reds have had good days too.
I'm surprised you didn't cut the bloodline out? WTG MEL... You were the trout Slayer, Brant, don't forget to hand over the rod to the wife when you hook up 😂 Love you guys!
You forgot the dill weed and the parsley, did you put cracked pepper in it? I personally would leave out the tiger sauce. I also use a little fresh minced garlic
Those Spanish Mackerels sure do bleed a lot, I guess that is why the sharks are in a frenzy. That bleeder Mackerel was probably caught by a shark soon after.
