    It was a pleasure learning the trolley rig from the expert himself! It was unfortunate that we weren't able to get the right bite! Maybe next time, What do you guys think? Another trolley video soon?!

      My pops used to keep a 3 oz weight on a penn surf rod and smack boats that came to close to his lines. After breaking a windshield on a boat once, they moved quick. I hate the boats around the piers lately. They have the WHOLE center span to fish. They are just lazy googans.

    Thoroughly enjoyed the video. Used to fish the skyway all the time back in the late 80's early 90s before you could drive on it. We would park and fill up a couple of shopping carts and walk them down as far as we felt like. Spent the night all the time and caught just about everything. Half a dozen trolley's, half a dozen shark rods, grilled out and had big boy drinks. During the fall we had college football on the radio all day and night. Something about the sunrise and sunset on that bridge. Brings back some great memories. Thanks.

    Hey, I am no skyway wizard but can you still catch snapper and grouper during the spring and for the trolley rig could I try and use a pooping cork bobber and a thread fin

    I use this rig all the time at the skyway! Great vid! Wish you guys got one. Hate to say it but from my experience over the past few years, the closer to the end of the pier you set up, the chances increase to snag a king. Also, unfortunately, many people know that and camp out there.
    Another way to snag a king is on the outgoing throw out a diving lure.
    Keep the great content coming!!!

    • @Saltyscales

      Hey John, the ends of the piers increase your odds but I have caught countless kings in that very same spot over the last 20 years. Kings are pelagics and move very fast through the area. 👍

    Dued catch a smaller size blue fish or Spanish and throw them on the rig. 💯 percent game changer trying to hook up. A nice tip to see your bait all the time is to attach a bright fishing cork on the line that slides on your anchor rod.
