Fishing is still that good on the coast. Those are Red Drum, the NC state fish. We catch them that big in Louisiana. Google Coastal Conservation Association and see what is being done to keep fishing strong on the coast.
These men ought to be ARRESTED. First the dog is not leashed, The war surplus Powerwagon doen't meet EPA regulations. They have no fishing licenses, Their beach driving has disturbed countless Piping Titmouses, Oystercatchers and they drove withing 100 yds of a sea turtle nest. Let's close down 99% of the ramps and then we can complain that the beaches are too crowded too. I'm sick of it.
@iamtherealgrandmasta Don't get you panties in a bunch. My comment had nothing to do with recreational fishermman releasing or not releasing fish. What I was referring to was commercial fishermen decimating the redfish population so that yuppies can eat the latest trendy menu item.
@zarchy55 yes.. when I speak to ANY eldery man/woman after a trip, they ask if I caught anything...when I tell them it was released they look at me and call me stupid. Big or small ..all mine go back in so don't think you can point that wrinkly finger at this 'yuppie'. I don't know what blackened redfish is, they don't have them where I come from so..I don't have any idea what you're trying to insinuate. Sick&tired of the older generation thinking we should be grateful.. Your wrong. For what..?
@lukkbox so i'm a bad fisherman? because i can't catch a 47lber? haha..what planet are you on?!!?!?!?! do you fish for carp or something! Come to my part of the coast line(south wales) and i'd you'd more than likely struggle to keep up or even get to the mark...let alone catch as many as me. My point being that all the books I have on this era of fishing show what looks like a slaughter. Killing anything they caught. I've released more fish than you've had hot dinners so don't be silly buggers
And now you probably never get a fish that size...47lb..thanks all the old boys for messing up future generations sport fishing. Catch and release..protect the juveniles and the breeders or all you'll be catching is guppies
What a great video!!!
man i wish it was still like that...
you dont miss what you have until its gone
wow the good old days of fishing i wonder what would you get from that beach today size wise i think its down to modern industrial fishing....

God fishing in the USA use to be great..now i gotta go to other country's to get decent fish.
Times have really changed, wheres all the fish now ;(
@iamtherealgrandmasta Do you really think it's "old boys" that did that. How about hoardes of yuppies ordering blackened redfish maybe?
