    I somehow tripped across your channel last year. I quit fishing a couple of decades ago, just kinda drifted away. You, Ron, Matt, and Brant have reignited my interest through y'alls videos and now I am back at it and having a blast! Thanks man!

    Damnit Brad, how many times I gotta tell you, a dollar bill is 6”. Compromise and use it as a tape measure. Unless you’re broke after buying the bait shop.😂👍

    Great video, am a South Florida Native, and use to fish that bridge alot, now living here on the panhandle ,u almost limit out on the mangroves, the later u would have stayed the bigger mangroves would have started bitting , next time that u get down there , try this , use a number 1 long shank on the shrimp all the way through, and for the grunt a use a 3 or 4 bait holder hook , cut the grunt into chunks,, just a tip, will see u at your store when it opens,,,Stay Safe God Bless 😀

    The little grouper was a strawberry hind I believe. They don't get very big. Some people just call them strawberry grouper.
    The Keys are really cool, there's a lot of ways to get your line stretched there. Next time bring a tape measure 😉. I'm sure you'll bring a bunch of stuff when you go back.
    Happy new year!

    • @GODSWORD5
      @GODSWORD5 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      @@darrelldennis2835 the south skyway fishing pier is the longest fishing pier. But you can’t fish off the skyway bridge itself. The skyway is the 2nd longest bridge in Florida with 7 mile being the longest. You also can’t fish off the 7 mile, only off the walking bridge on the south side. The bridge in the video is the pedestrian bridge that parallels long key bridge which is about 2-2.5 miles long.

  • @captainconstitution4238

    I think that last Snapper may have been a Cubera Snapper. It's hard to tell juvenile Cuberas from Grays sometimes. The overall size, vertical bars, and tail shape are indicators. I'm about 90% sure. They are also more abundant in The Keys.

Alot less concrete back then everywhere compared to now. Key colony Beach and coco plum inlet have good catches rite next to casa Clara condos and Rutgers pier bar....if all that's still there.
