Hooks can be confusing. We’re here to help. We’ll cover different types of fishing hooks and when you should use them in the correct setting. Don’t miss fish because you’re using the wrong kind of fishing hook!
This week, I am back on the famous skyway pier with Erin and my friend, Bushi. We are hoping for a fun day of fishing. First, we want to try for some Grouper and then put out some rods to catch smaller fish as well (can’t miss that nonstop action)!
0:00 Intro
1:51 Let's try Grouper fishing
5:34 When to use long-shanked hooks
12:24 When to use circle hooks
15:59 When to use bait holder hooks

15:10 - lane snapper.

@user-ct3ml6iu4n 2 года назад

100% depends on the day, one day the fish are on the bite and the next day nothing even in identical conditions. I prefer to use circle hooks in a rugged rocky areas as the normal "J" hook tends to get stuck in the coral

@rudygallegos785 Год назад

I've been fishing for 35 yrs and still learn tips from you and your dad. Thanks. Back in the day, fisherman kept tips to themselves.. as if you were stealing their honey hole.

@MMACAMVIDEOS 2 года назад

That's a lovely Lane Snapper ... 8" and up in FL

@miket2812 2 года назад

You can free-line pinfish from that pier and catch grouper off the rocks 50 to 75 yards out from the pier.. That's one of my favorite places to fish.. Mangroves snapper, Spanish/King mackerel, Jackes... Anything and everything swims through there...

@pequenioedgarito3067 2 года назад

Hey Skipper. I live and fish here in Northern midwest, where its gettin really cold in Illinois. We dont have like the best places to fish. For that, we go oto Wisconsin. But I learned today a VERY important, fundamental of fishing. Match hook size with the fish you want to catch. A great highlight from your video. A fish with small mouth will need small hook. Now i understand why i use a small hook and i only get panfish, bluegill or sunfish and hoping to catch trophy bass. Ive been fishing crazy using like a3/0 or 4/0 on a drop shot - but even tsmaller fish just swim away. Thank you Skipper for this awesome learning. Edgar

@cytang221 2 года назад

That fish with the spot is called a Lane Snapper

@methylethyl7765 2 года назад

In NJ and I think other Northeastern states if you are bait fishing for stripers you have to use circle hooks per the regulations so if it's the spring or fall runs you're pretty much stuck with the circle regardless of the species you are targeting unless its a really small hook.

@Jonathan.D 2 года назад

The next time you fish that pier use a trolley rig it keeps your bait in the perfect place for kings, mackerel, and tarpon. There's a lot less of a chance of losing fish, like when you bottom fish.

@TheForastero8 2 года назад

Lane snapper

@RevolutionRoad 2 года назад

That fish your girl caught with the spot on the back was a Lane Snapper

@elieziete 9 месяцев назад

already have caught a 30# Blue Cat off of these (going to try to get a 60#+ next year). ru-vid.comUgkxzXmlErSqVAEGWFEKO530BvTqFDw53QW3 Definitely very strong, and sharp. Additionally, the gap is wide enough to actually hook a fish (not always the case with circle hooks). I purchased the 8/0, but probably should have got the 9/0 (they seem slightly smaller than other 8/0 hooks). Additionally, having the point in-line helps if you drift fish. I have yet to get a serious snag with one of these hooks.

@reelfishing002 2 года назад

Hey Skipper, thanks for all the great videos on fishing. I joined a few months ago n love the places and advice you share . But most of all that you share it with your family. That’s a blessing of its own. I would like to see how you set up and fish Black fish in New Jersey. Also , maybe we’re we can get the fiddler crabs they say are the best for these fish. Seems no one sells them any more around here during the Fall season. Thanks and tell the crew I said hello, and great job. Stay Blessed , Adam

@georgetuider654 2 года назад

Those passing showers... I was on a pier on the Outer Banks of North Carolina when the rain came. And boy did it come! The spots were coming in two at a time. Everyone was getting drenched. There was a shelter in the middle of the pier but no one wanted to leave the bite. We kept looking at the shelter and at each other laughing the whole time...and kept fishing.

@RonDevito 2 года назад

In some states where striped bass range, you have to use inline circle hooks now if you're targeting bass. J Hooks and O'Shaughnessy are illegal for stripers in NY and CT. Offset hooks are also illegal for stripers in both states.

@tonymontalvo2004 Год назад

how on earth would they enforce this? just curious I live in NJ. not that they have to worry about me catching anything lol

@bigbrainmove7257 11 месяцев назад

15:07 I think it’s a dotted snapper the ones in the Red Sea have different colors I might be wrong but the one thing I’m sure of is they are really tasty when fried 😂

@rochellofalla4946 10 месяцев назад

That Lane Snapper is also Filipino ultralite anglers like to fish for here in the Philippines. So good for sour soups or broth with vegetables. It's meat is tasty if it's fat.

I'm new in fishing. Right now i don't even know nothing. But my neighbor took me to a trip fishing we got 30 porgys each. And now i can't stop thinking about fishing. I love fried fish. But fish them is my New hobby. Never fished in my 42 years old. But. I love it. My friend told me. Not every day you get them... "THAT IS WHY IS CALL (FISHING) NOT CATCHING" But remember a bad day fishing is bether that a bad day working.

I use 4, 2, treble hooks, usually 2 hooks on a wire leader for pier fishing, since I would lose my bait less often.

@TheMtGRogue 2 года назад

@Hey Skipper That's actually very common when they are feeding on glass minnows. They will gorge themselves until they literally cannot fit anything else in! When you see them tearing up a school on the surface, you can be sure of two things: 1- You're about to catch a ton of Spanish. 2- You're about to spend a whole lot of time cleaning up. P.S.- In Florida you are legally required to use non-stainless steel, non-offset circle hooks when targeting Mangrove Snapper. I'm not trying to nitpick, but with the size of your audience, it would be a good idea for you to promote responsibility when it comes to our fisheries. That law in particular not only saves fish from getting gut hooked, but also helps keep our reefs from being littered with stainless steel hooks that last SO MUCH LONGER and are dangerous for reef life and divers alike. If you don't have it yet, you should check out FWC's free app called Fish Rules. It will check your exact location and list every applicable law, size limit, and bag limit by species, including any local areas with specific limitations (Florida has lots of these). It also has several photos of each species to help with identification. It's incredibly handy and completely free.
