I am fishing with sand fleas for Pompano. It was a struggle finding the sand fleas in the surf but they turned out to be efficient! I end up catching some pompano on the fleas and fishing bites. I do also go visit some viewers and do a little bit of fishing with them as well! We catch a few whiting together. Stay Bummy!!

That was very nice of you to meet up with that nice couple and show them a thing or two
Hey Matt, TH-cam decided to show me this antique video this morning. I don't remember you being that young.... BTW, congrats on the new store, you've really grown and matured since this one.
Another great video. I love how you included the challenge of catching sand fleas. Fishing with your subscribers that's really awesome too man.
Thanks dude!
Meet video...Nice that you care enough about your viewers to make a special stop by to say hello and do a little fishing with them!
Great fishing...my country got sand fleas too but much smaller than yours..cant wait to get my fishing time after covid ouhhhhhh...nice sharing thanks
What bird is that...? Hes waiting for your fish man hahaa...hes right there in the end of your video
Awesome video.
You have one more fan from Brazil.
Sweet! Thanks man!
"Tamo Junto" Bro!
Great video. I was down at Panama Beach a few weeks ago and the water was crystal clear. Got into some nice Whiting and 1 nice size blue. Never caught any Pompano.
Thank you! You need to keep trying for some pompano, they are awesome!
Catch sand fleas here on the west coast too, yeah they can be a pain to find sometimes.
Great video...thank you!
I may become a bum when I get down there! IDK what my wife is gonna think about that though haha
Awesome video, have the same sandflea scoop
+4 DA KIDZ Fishing thank you! And yeah I need a new one, this one is actually broken. There is a large hole in it where the fleas can escape!
Great job man, Hey Cindy and Jerry
Yesss keep them videos coming!
+Coleman thanks for the support! Glad you enjoy the videos!
Loved the video, enjoyed watching you fish!
Good video man. From fairhope here good to see a local!
J c thank you! I’m glad you enjoyed the content!
How about a test with barbless C hooks? I've crushed the barb on C hooks for a long time. Are my losses higher? - probably, is it worth it? - yes ( I'm soft-hearted) and, think - catfish. One can bend just the very tip of the barb to make an arch, still seeing light under a 'hump'. This hump serves as the barb. I'm using it now, like today! on 1-0 and 2-0 C hooks. Caught two small Pompano in mid August in Melbourne and no catfish got off.
Cat fish need love too.
Look where the wet sand on the receding wave is a line of lumpy/wavy sand. That's where they are hiding.
That helps a lot. Makes sense. Ghost Shrimp is hard work too.
Dude, you take me fishing and I'll catch all the sand fleas you want!
ANOTHER GREAT VIDEO
stephen zachary thanks dude!
Coming to orange beach first week of April for a week at the lodge. Want to surf fish. Rookie as far as this type of fishing. Love your videos on u tube. Learning a lot. Thanks for all the info. What kind of fish are running at that time
Awesome video. Hey. When are you going to do the one week fishing for survival challenge. ???? It will make more great videos for your collection
Man I’ve seen some of that and it looks like a lot of fun! I may have to try it out
Cool video I just moved right off of dauphin island I love it down here
It is an awesome place to live!
Why does FRED the bird always travel with you?
Are these ( name? ) birds that common?
Great videos great tips learned a lot can't wait to get back to LA in a few weeks hopefully in a year or 2 full time Fort Morgan
Great video. Where is this?
I like this. Thanks!
It looks like tiny patches of grass that's when you know there is a lot of them
This is near Orange beach Alabama over on Fort Morgan. I have a house there and there are many great isolated fishing spots in the area.
You want to let me stay there and fish?? Lol
Hey can you make a video of your rod and reel inventory I'm interested in getting into surf fishing and I want to hear a few suggestions for them
Yes, I️ will be real soon! As it is getting into winter I will be making some of those types of videos
Ok what's the deal. Last week you could walk without stepping on them yesterday I couldn't find one. We did have a cold snap and a front was moving in. Is this the reason? Also I'm used to scooping In the backwash of the wave but I just found a video where the guy walked the beach untill he came across a rough patch in the sand and he scooped in the sand not the back wash and got tons. Any help is appreciated.
Was the water in the 60’s or low 70’s ?
Great vid. But how do u get the fish bites off the hook because when I fish with fish bites it is so difficult to take it off the hook. If u have any specific ways?
Watching your videos has gotten me interest in surf fishing. I am in Port Charlotte Fla. Any suggestion where a good place to surf fish for Pompano?
"Feeling kinda catfishy", darn catfish, hanging there all lame, they're nasty buggers haha!
I have had no luck finding sand fleas so far. Fresh shrimp seems to work best followed by the fish bites. I go to the fish bites when my bait keeps getting stolen. That stuff is not coming off the hook.
Yes I take the same approach. Fishbites are a must for the beach!
I wish my rods would go off as regularly as the bites you're getting. I don't think we have sand fleas in Oz either. Dig up pippies on the beach (muscle shell fish). 😃🇦🇺🎣🐟😃
Lol it’s day by day
Did a bit of Googling & apparently we do have sand fleas in Oz (known as Mole Crabs). A term I did hear on TH-cam but I gained the impression they might be further up the coast. Never seen them nor heard of them until watching TH-cam. Seems like they may be a good bait. 👍🏻😃🎣🐟🇦🇺🇦🇺
What are the limits on whiting and pompano? Do they have a season or are they year round?
Cool videos! Headed down to gulf shores early August. Staying near fort Morgan. Will the fishing be good on the beach at that time? Thinking of bringing down a sand flee rake. May come in handy. Never surfed fished and enjoy your videos
Fishing in the surf will be determined by water temp. But summertime can be some of the best times around here! And thank you! Glad you are enjoying the content!
If you would catching the different fish would you please mention the legal limits
Nice video Bummy!! Love it. So last week I tried some of ur fish bites and did well. Caught a few whiting a big pin fish, but just couldn't locate any pomp or reds. My question is I went down and fished off of Dauphin island and saw ZERO sand fleas. It was 2 days after Hurricane Michael blew through. Do you think this had an effect on the sand fleas? Ive just started my surf fishing adventures and need some tips on time of year, location, etc...Thanks and STAY BUMMY!!
I’m not sure what causes the fleas to come and go. But could have been the storm
Anybody know if there are sand fleas to be had on the southwest coast of Florida...Naples...Ft. Myers?
coming back to foley for three months,my question is what can you catch in the winter off the beach?
Right now we are still catching a decent amount of whiting. The pompano are still around but few and far between. The occasional black drum has started showing up as well. This pattern will probably continue for a while.
Thanks.
Hey not sure on fish, but I've been going to Foley etc for my 50 years! Get bored etc go to the Holmes Medical Museum in Foley. My mama and papa, good history! My dad is Dr WC Holmes Jr. Bridge is named after going over lagoon. I'm proud!
Awesome fish. I'm coming down in two weeks! You think I'll get into some pomps?!
Yes, should still be prime!
My wife and daughter and I are heading to gulf shores we’re on the beach on the 22nd for 8 days never fished saltwater I have fished bass and catfish my entire life we love to fish any tips for us newbies
Keep checking out the videos! I’m sure it’ll help Point you in the right direction!
Nice video! What is this at? Or general area
This was around Fort Morgan
Long story short, I THINK its by the big bridge at the Alabama/Florida line? I was there couple years ago and since not seeing condos in background. There there just angle, distance etc. But I'm only guessing and also curious.
Hey where did you get that sand flea trapper?
At a local tackle store in town
Hey bud! What kind of fishing line do you use? I've been using 30 pound test spider wire and I'm not super happy with it. Do you have any suggestions?
I use power pro. Typically 20 lbs and it has worked great for me
I also use 20 lbs power pro. I've tried other braids and always go back to power pro (the Original, not the "new" ones they offer)...
👍👍

What size and style hook are you using here? Thanks
Bass Star I am using a variety of 1/0 circle hooks. I have used a lot of brands and they all work pretty well!
Thank you Sir. I'm primarily an artificial lure angler but am adding Pompano and Whiting with live bait to my techniques this year. My research shows hook sizes from #2 to #3/0 with Circle and Kahle seemingly being the most popular. Hence my question and I appreciate you taking the time to respond. I recently found your channel and am enjoying your videos.
For Pompano and Whiting use a small circle hook. IMHO the smaller the better. They have small mouths and the less metal you are trying to get them to eat the better.
It's funny that people are commenting about using a smaller hook size, I was thinking the same thing too. Why such a big hook?
Catfish at the beach??
sina khun unfortunately yes. There are 2 species of saltwater catfish: 1. Hard heads and 2. Sailcats or gafftop sail cat. Neither one is a desirable catch. Sailcats are pretty good to eat but both are just considered a trash fish. They are not like the channel cats or blue cats in fresh water.
Gafftop are delicious.. I used to throw them back until an old salt told me to try it....
Gafftops and hardheads are delicious if nothing else bites. Better than nothing haha
Hey bud I live in foley would you be interested in teaching me to saltwater fish for pompano
Hey Robert, I do guided beach fishing trips if you are interested. You can email me at matthewisbell6@gmail.com for more info if you’d like!
Bama Beach Bum can you send me an email I don't know how to work it yet lol... robblunder12@gmail.com
U should watch and cook a hardy
Catch
where can you buy this sand fleas catcher??? may i know
All the tackle shops in my area have them. But it could probably be found on Amazon too
And the legal amount of inches of each fish thanks
You dont ever take another man's rod,,,unless asked too
James Eastridge Never touch another man’s pole.
😂😂😂 this is going the wrong erection, I mean direction.

Please stop killing innocent harmless beautiful fishes! They use to be an abundance of fishes , sand crabs, pelicans etc: they are all dying! Please save beaches and nature
I’m addicted to deliciousness. It will never stop.
