Tampa Bay Inshore Bridge Fishing - Gag Grouper, Mangrove Snapper, Sea Bass
มุมมอง 3.1K3 ปีที่แล้ว
On this episode of Below The Boat Fishing, we are fishing inshore Tampa Bay. We fish bridges and the shipping channel. We caught multiple species: Gag Grouper, Mangos, and Black Sea Bass. It was eventful and always nice to get out and try something new.
Best Way ty i use an old bilge pump and pump to a spare can as I use vinegar and dawn and hate to waste the water pumps quickly will reuse twice or so........
One flaw is supplying the new water from the bottom. The weight of the water in the trash can is going to try to backfeed into the drinking water system. Need to supply fill water at top with air-gap between supply water and weir. A small amount of water can be drained from the bottom at the same rate as the make-up water. Also maybe remove the prop during this operation. Or cross your fingers with muffs. In any case, there's really no reason to run the motor for more than a few minutes to conduct tests or flush cooling system. Just my observation.
Do you think that’ll work for a Yamaha 115? My water pressure at home is only 35 psi
Hey there. Did you need up doing an instant video? I have the same unit and wondering what setting you pic for the 3 in 1 transducer when you start the set up
Where is the installation video?
Can't do that with a hydrofoil on your engine... ask me how I know.
Went to the second hand (recycle) yard got a used clean drum about 44Gal/170L for $10, cut the top 1/3 off with the disc grinder, there is no need to put the motor in gear so hung the garden hose over the side, run the F70 for 10 minutes. When finished take the hose off the faucet and drain (syphon) drum water into the garden or the storm water pit.
That's a PVC/plastic drum of 44Gal/170L.
I ended up buying Rydlyme descaler and a small pump to flush out my old Yamaha 60hp 2 stroke outboard. I dropped the lower unit of the engine, and hooked the output of the pump to the water intake tube of the engine. I also had to take the thermostate out, but it needed replaced anyway. You mix the Rydlyme in a 5 gal bucket with 1 gallon of water, and put the pump in the bucket. The water comes out of the pee valve into the bucket, and is then run back through the system by the pump. I ran it this was for a few hours. There was at least 1/2" of sludge on the bottom of the bucket when I was done. I could not believe how much crap came out of the engine. It is a little pricey to do it this way, but it works.
Great informative video...did you use any chemicals to flush the outboard motor...?
What size motor is in the video? need to do this on a 115 2 stroke. So tired of ears,
My dad and I flushed our engines with muffs and never had salt problems. The bucket will not do anything that muffs can't do as long as you're using the muffs properly.
Darn good idea my friend. I may try this on my Yamaha 50 / 4 stroke. Just gonna have to measure the lower unit and bucket. Steve
Was wondering if you added vinegar to the water to flush out salt buildup?
No sir I have never heard of doing that!!
I've seen a video where a guy uses vinegar and dawn soap. He's been doing this for over 30 years, and his motors have 1,000+ hours on them.
You got my like with the "Come on man" comment lmao
Where did you find the fittings
Amazon has most of them. I think I may have got some from ace hardware as well.
love it thanks
Not only does this flush your engine better, if you are tuning up your engine on mouse ears, you might find out that when you take your boat to the ramp and fire it up in the water, it won't run the same. You need to run your engine lower unit under water to get that back pressure on the thru hub exhaust.
I’ve been looking for a large trashcan or some thing like a barrel to run my Yamaha F150 outboard and it needs about 26 inches from the front fin to the back and most of the garbage cans I find around 24 inches. Any advice appreciated. Thanks.
If the trash can won’t work I have seen other guys ,specifically guys with twin engines, use an old 500-100 gallon water box. They are used in agriculture I don’t know what they are called specifically but they are a plastic tote that has a metal cage around it.. maybe try that!!
@@belowtheboat3482 Old post but theyre called IBC (intermediate bulk container)
I cant find that fitting anywhere... what store did you go to? Also cant find the rubber gaskets for males only females
This will work great for my little 15hp suzuki!! Thanks for sharing
Did you ever make the installation video? I'd be very interested to see how it turned out.
What are the snook locations in Tampa??
Fun to watch. What leader did you have with the 20lb braid? Surprised you were able to get them off the bottom! Nice job!
how long you flush the outboard?
10-20 min but that’s way overkill I just leave it running while I am cleaning the rest of the boat.
I’m picking up a used boat next week and started watching these video on flushing. I like your video but disagree with running the cool water thru the flushing process. I think the motor won’t get to temperature properly and the thermostats won’t open so water won’t properly flow thru the motor. The motor has to heat that water up so thermostats open otherwise water stuck on other side of thermostat doesn’t go anywhere, no? The bucket way is the way to go though because muffs create the same issue by constantly introducing cool water so it’s not a proper flush.
A boat motor always runs in cool water. How do they ever warm up? It will be fine if you let it run for a few minutes (up to operating temp).
So do you have to wait for the ocean to warm up for your thermostat to open?
@@benjithebulldog5637 You missed my sarcasm. Relax.
@@jefmichel4027 my bad
@@benjithebulldog5637 what sense does that make? The point is to flush the salt water out of the entire engine passages. The thermostat opens based on engine temp not ocean temp. Didn’t mean to offend you just asking you a question.
What about a drain on the bottom instead. Then fill the can as usual ? Not sure but I've tried it with muffs and the can with no drain . Only problem is getting the motor to lift out and tipping the can over . Heavy . Do you put detergent in the can when you flush? I'm in brackish to salt water Thanks . Mercury 30hp
What's the lengths on those rods? Thanks
Most are just 7.6 rods except for one is an 8 ft with a 6500 size reel. The only reason I have that set up is for big snook and big tarpon. I take it offshore as a backup for bigger fish. The most common setup we use is 4500 with a standard 7.6 rod and 10lb braid and a 20-30lb fluorocarbon leader. Thanks for the question and checking out the video
@@belowtheboat3482 thanks for your answer as well👍💪
What is a good rod to pair with this reel?
Mine is just the standard combo rod and reel you buy as a set it’s a pen rod. I love this setup and have had no problems with neither rod nor reel. I think it will depend on what you plan to use it to fish for. This is just rule of thumb from my experience. If the rod tip is skinny and small it will have a lot of feeling in the water (meaning you can interpret what is happening with your bait much easier). But it will be harder to throw bigger baits even with braid. If you go thick and heavy you will have very little feeling but have bigger baits and stronger sets. I use this combo for inshore fishing and primarily snapper. So little casting mostly bottom fishing and dock or structure fishing. And it works great for that! Hope I helped and didn’t just ramble on thanks for commenting!
Hello, good video. I want to add one to my boat but I'm not sure if I have space for the GO7. Can you share how is setup? I have a 2018 Sea Ray 19spx
Thank you. I have had the footage for a while now from the install once I finish editing I will post if you have any direct questions tho before I post I would be glad to lend some help!!
I just ordered.
Sounds good dude
You definitely won’t be disappointed but still let me know how you like it!
I got the GO 7 and today was able to installed. But the unit does not want to read the card. Called west marine and they are going to replace the unit..
👍🏽😎👍🏽
Thank you
2/10 rating. 40 miles and you caught small fish????????
What camera do you use to drop down?
We were using a go pro hero 3 with a waterproof case.
This reel was built to throw lures at big species . Bait wise works for larger species but The slammer lll has a 1 lb minimal drag verses wide open adjustment. Top plate also has a hydrophobic coating so anglers doing home servicing should not grease or it damages the hydrophobic coating. The second generations of Slammer lll also came with a better bail assembly. A few of the original Slammer lll released in 2016 had a bail defect and Penn offers a upgrade to correct this. The second run of Penn Slammer lll come with the better bail. #2 generation has a letter on the inside of the rotor that indicates its the second edition. Most the slammer lll sold are the upgrade version 2 but stores holding old stock may still have the originals.
Thanks for all the information I didn’t know any of that. Great info to pass around on the channel!!!!
@@belowtheboat3482 Rod wise check out the Penn Battalion ll series vs the battle. Battalion ll inshore has SLC2 construction, Fuji alconite guides Fuji reel seat, premium cork grip and shrink rubber handles for $99.00 to $129.00. A Big merry Christmas gift from Penn to their fans
Thanks I’ll check it out!!
dumped water on you? Be glad it was water...
Lol your right never thought of that lol
Did you have autobail problems ,wanna buy 3500 for pike fishing with lures? Bail seems to close on casting?
No sir, I have never had any issues at all!!! Still couldn’t be happier with it.
Nice mangroves.
Thanks!!! yah that was a great day I’m ready for another. Lol
How big is your boat ma? I have a 21 footer
This is my buddy Johns boat and it is a 22 foot sportsman. Very nice boat!! My boat is only a 15ft and is limited to bay and inland fishing.
I wish mine was a 21ft lol
Thanks for the response
And thank you for the comment brother
What town? Tampa pretty much every bridge has a no fishing sign. And no parking sign. And they put up tall rails that makes it difficult to reach over.
Yah it’s ridiculous. The west coast of Florida in general is getting to be mostly un-fishable by land. Soon it will be like the east coast of Florida where you have your designated fishing locations. Bridges and backwater are some of the funnest fishing to do but getting harder and harder to do from shore. In reality it hurts the next generation the most there is literally 100’s of ponds within 3 square miles of me and the kids in the neighborhood used to ride their bikes and fish them but they kept getting run out so now what are they to do?
@@belowtheboat3482 25, 30. 40 years ago it was not like this. Then the people from NY, NJ, Connecticut, ext. Started moving in. They buy up every speck of dirt and put up NO fishing signs. Plus they have worked themselves in to political positions at the local level. So now they have the law to inforce all the new rules and new regulations. Socialism = Social and economic justice
Agreed
What would you go with penn spinfisher 4500 or penn slammer 4500? Is the $100 price different worth it? Thank you!!!
Difference ***
For my specific situation the answer was yes but if you closed you eyes and reeled them both not much different. In my opinion if you have the extra funds buy the slammer if not then you will be satisfied with the spinfisher she is overly capable and debatably the best on the market for the price!! Thanks for the question and I hope I was able to help!! Let me know what you end up with!
@@belowtheboat3482 thanks for the reply man!!! I just ordered the slammer 4500 cant wait to catch some screamerz on her!!!!
Yes!!!!!! Enjoy it
Sweet video! I’ve been looking for an easy way to flush!
Lesson for the year--flip that hat the correct position--the shade it will give your face is about 10X what those shades will give you AND maybe keep you from having (like me) about five and counting skin cancers cut off your face. The baseball catcher look, doesn't look smart on the water.
Hi! I have a Majorcraft Solpara 1002h 60-100g. Would you suggest me size 4500 or 5500 for shore jigging with Penn Slammer ?
4500 definitely!!!!!! Most useful all around and considerably smaller than the 5500.
You got grouper slapped...lol. Enjoyed the video. Keep producing.
I did indeed. I could quite possibly be the worst fish holder in the Tampa Bay Area.Thank you for the comment and support
Big sheep's at that bridge for sure!!
Nothing like like getting offshore!
Yes i started out as strictly snook fishing and John convinced me to go offshore been sucked in ever since. Thanks a lot for commenting and supporting we appreciate it!!!
I fish off my kayak. But get off shore with Hubbard's Marina allott.. until I get my own boat. Keep grinding bro u got good stuff!
INice job! Subbed!..
Thanks Dan you da man lol
keep goin yall make some good videos funny to keep grindin
Thank you we appreciate it we will definitely keep it up!
We fish the same waters. I've had a go7 with active imaging for 2yrs now. You're going to love it. Every time I go out (west of egmont ;) ) I'm finding new legdes clear as day. In the bay too. Subbed
Dude thanks that is so exciting to hear!!! Also I wouldn’t want to live or fish anywhere else in the world man Tampa Bay has it all!!!!
We should meet and run tandem one day!
We went out 40 miles Friday and delt with the same slowness! 26" red snapper, some Bonita and a bunch of bigger lanes. It's tough out there man I'm learning with you!
Sweet at least we ain’t the only ones!! Thanks for the feedback definitely makes me feel better!!! It will pick up!! I think some of our spots just haven’t woke up from the winter slumber yet!!
I'd love to get up with yall and fish one day. I just moved to the DTSP area and have a similar vessel set up but no knowledge of this water! Regarding the camera angles, I usually like a mix but prefer the overviews of the deck/personnel. I know what a reel looks like when it's spinning lol... Tight lines
Thanks for the feedback on the video I love to get viewers input. Maybe we can set something up for fishing. What do you like to target and or what are your ambitions with it? Specific species? Inshore or offshore?
Both really! I’m excited for snook to open back up, grew up slaying the reds and specks in the northern part of the gulf so inshore is my go-to. I’m learning everything I can about offshore and have had some limited success my last few trips. I’m interested in finding bait shallows, bridge beasts, catching dinner, spearing…. You name it and I’m game
Well sweet dude maybe when John and I start really queuing in on something we could run it!!
Right on my man. I’m learning along with y’all right now so reach out any time! Also, I ain’t never met a man who might need some fish-grips more than you 🤣 or do ya eat popcorn before you head out?
Yah!!! I knew I shouldn’t had that popcorn!!! Will do.
