Fishing Live Greenbacks Around Mangroves - How To Catch Your Own Bait
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 7 ก.พ. 2025
- In this video, I show you how to catch your own live bait (greenbacks, pilchards, threadfins, etc.) using dry chum and a cast net on a shallow grass flat. This technique is very affective at catching baitfish around the Tampa Bay area during spring and summer. After catching some white bait, I then started fishing and live chumming around mangrove shorelines. Greenbacks are one of the best baits for inshore fishing while targeting redfish, snook, and speckled trout.

Love that you’re local to me, you always put me in the mood to cast a line
Yes would love a tutorial on your technique for throwing a cast net...looks simple and effortless.
A little tip for guys wanting to catch their own baits is you dont have to have specific fish chum. If you buy some cheap canned dog food and form it into like ping pong sized balls and throw a few of those out the baitfish will show up pretty quick if they are in the area. Just throw your castnet when you see them getting thick and you will get just as many as store bought chum! 😎👍👍
Thank you for all the support, I really appreciate each one of you!

Hello from Lakeland 👋🏽
Hey dude
Do you have a video for fall/winter seasons and catching bait?
Good vid. I fish those spots too. Been trying to find that chum locally but can’t seem to find it. Appreciate the how to catch bait, now all we need is a cast net tutorial.
BTW......the thumbnail pic is of a scaled sardine aka pilchard or whitebait, not a greenie as the description says.
Agree on net tutorial. He threw that 10 ft net like nothing
Largo Feed Store on west bay has it. Called Purina tropical fish food. They sell it for like 30 bucks for a 50lb bag, should last a year or 2 depending on how much you fish.
@@mattwagers9916 Thanks Matt. I was there last year and they sold me some chum but I think it was just ground up dry dog food. Will have to try them again.
@@hughj.5762 Ask for Purina tropical fish food and they'll get you taken care of.
@@hughj.5762 By the way if you're local, shoot me a private message and you can swing by my place and I'll show you how to throw a big net perfectly every time.
Great video - any specific dry chum that you use? Nice snook and trout
Is the spinnfisher 3500 a good set up on the st croix avid inshore 7'6 med lite fast action?
Hey Brett. What do you use to make your t-shirts?
Dude, love your videos…Question, have you had any experience getting whitebait in 10,000 island area? i've been fishing there for several years and all i can find is really small stuff near the mangroves. Any advise would be appreciated.
Most definitely buying a snook shirt
I noticed that you switch up from live bait to artificials quite often, is there certain factors that make you throw one over the other?
In super clear water where the fish can be finicky, I prefer throwing live bait to maximize my chance of catching fish. But most of the time it really depends on if I feel like catching/buying live bait or not 😂
@@SeeYaDude check out Grabbin' Tail Lures' 3" Greenback Swipper, match the hatch style bait
Can we get See Ya dude on AFTCO shirts?
is this Dunedin?
When will you drop long sleave shirts?
How would you find them if you're land-locked and without a boat?
They often time's school up around dock and bridge pilings, but you can also find them hanging out around seawalls
How do I get to your sales page!!

Nice, not to wordy, lots of good direct to the point content. Enjoyed it. Thanks.
Side note... Dumb kayaker. Stop bothering fisherman! We are away from everyone for a reason.
If you ever need a Fishin buddy let me know
I’ve seen you on TH-cam. “Really?” Lolol
Second
First
sheeewwww
early
Don't you find that non-fisherman, even with the best of intentions, paddle right thru where you're casting and wanna chit chat?
Bruh - pilchards are NOT greeenbacks. Threadfins are greenbacks.
