Thanks for having this video on beach fishing. Normally you folks always lean toward fishing from a boat or kayak. Which is mostly the reason I’ve never joined. Please keep it up. There’s a lot of us that are on the beach. Here around Cocoa there’s only one pier and no jetties!
My wife and I spent two days fishing with Captain B last week and had a fantastic experience! He had us Pompano and Blues the first day and Spanish Mackerel the second. I learned so much from him but gained several more good tips from this video. I can’t wait for Luke to show us how to fish here on the Gulf!
Great video! I use a lot of these same methods when I’m surf fishing and on my charters. Glad to see so many people getting excited about fishing on the beach! 🐟🎣
I’ve always used orange floats to look like sand flea egg sacks. Of course I only make it to beach once a year from Ohio. Should I be using Diff color floats instead of just the one? Thanks

I can’t believe how hard they’re hitting/. It doesn’t even look like there’s any structure on that beach. I’ve been surf fishing with a hi lo rig and sand fleas. All I catch are dang catfish… and they’re not Sail Cats. I typically go in the evening before high tide. I land the fleas out pretty far and have gotten pretty good at catching the fleas and hooking them to not fly off. Any tips? I’m in the FL panhandle.
Wouldn't bait runner type reels be better than a loose drag on a regular reel? I use my bait runner Penn a lot for setting out a bait while I use lures or another rod but I haven't tried it for that style of surf fishin'.

I like the way your homeboy covers up everything with his hand when you’re trying to ask him what it is he’s using, so that we can’t see it that’s so helpful,
You want to look for structure. Look for where the riptides are (rips, cuts-same thing) and set up on either side of that. The fish typically run either in the trough, on the sandbar or just past the sandbar. You can see where the sandbars are by where the waves start curling over, the when they hold their shape is deeper water. Find where the water holds its shape between the sandbars; that’s where a cut or rip is. If the water is calm you can look at the shell line and see where the shells are pushed up higher to locate the cut. Or look for lines of foamy water coming all the way in to the shore. There are lots of ways to determine the underwater structure if you know what to look for. Like Captain B said, those fish like to run on top of the sandbar sometimes. Stagger your lines to different depths until you find where the fish are. Hope that helps!

I need to do a video of the easiest way to tie a hi lo rig. I have never seen anyone tie them the way i do (although I am sure someone does), and it's so fast and easy
@@Saltstrong Yeah, that is a great way to do it, but not the easiest. I don't do any social or video stuff, but I might make a quick video and send it your way. I have never seen my method on any website or video, but it is super fast, super easy, and great for moderate sized fish.

the biggest tip to surf fishing is to kick back and soak it all in. sometimes its nice to just sit back and kick it. obviously keep up with the shrimp. I think the biggest failures ive seen since i started surf fishing is. people dont check their bait nearly enough. people get lazy and tired of reeling their rig in and then they have empty hooks ive seen almost for up to an hour till i catch something then they finally check their rig
As long as you know how to cast and also when needed have a shock leader in front of the rig you will never have an issue nice smooth cast are the key. Frankly I use up to 6 oz when needed have never had an issue. Tight Lines.
@@captainbssurffishingcharte4724 i rekon you have been lucky up to now. I wouldn’t want to be stood down cast of you , thats a fact. Good luck to you, if it works thats all that matters.
When are you doing another TH-cam video with Captain Hollywood. As a salt strong VIP member, I made a comment on his latest post. Requesting him back on TH-cam and he said he was ready. Come on Luke let's make it happen. We love Hollywood.
@@aaron5632018 If you were a member of salt strong, you would know who we are talking about. Go ahead and TH-cam Captain Hollywood from salt strong. It will step up your fishing game.
How do you find a beach not completely overrun with swimmers? I get nasty looks or complaints about 20% of the time I go surf fishing. I try to be conscientious of others, but man, I can’t seem to find deserted beaches (or one with ample space for everyone) like you appear to be at.
Luckily here in Brevard we have lots of beach access with a little leg work you can locate open areas. Some beaches you just have to avoid for the exact reasons you mentioned. Tight Lines and let me know if I can help in the future..
I try to get out there early before the swimmers and surfers are around. If you have a cart with balloon tires it will make it easier for you to get away from the more populated areas. But in the summer, hitting the beach early will keep you away from people and you’ll also get the bonus of getting on that early sunrise bite! (It’s a real thing!)

My son, grandson, and I went fishing with Captain B recently. He is a great fisherman and an even better teacher.
How cool that you and your family fished with Capt B!
I remember when @saltstrong used to do surf fishing videos. I wish they started doing them again
Plan is to start doing more!
This is a welcome video from you guys. For us that DONT have a boat its challenging to find the spots you guys do in a boat.
Beach fishing used to be great in Naples......I grew up here surf fishing......those days are long gone....
Great video, really enjoyed all the tips!!! Thanks Capt. B! Tight lines!
So glad to see that you enjoyed this video

So awesome thanks for sharing!!
19:40 i like how hes just talking about the setups while the rod in the back is getting hammered
This was cool and made me excited to get on the gulf this year. If you guys had time to do a live show beach fishing that would be really fun.
That would be cool! Thanks for the suggestion!
Keep them shore fishing videos coming, please and thanks! 👍
More on the way! Thanks for watching!!
Awesome and absolutely! 👊

I like video amazing my friend successful
Thank you very much
@@Saltstrong yes same buddy
I like the way your homeboy covers up everything with his hand when you’re trying to ask him what it is he’s using, so that we can’t see it that’s so helpful,
He literally went through each rig in the video. Did you finish the video?
@@timnash1925 yeah he said what it’s called but homeboy captain Hollywood covered it with his goofy ass hands every time go back and watch
You can get all of the details on the blog post: www.saltstrong.com/articles/the-ins-and-outs-of-beach-fishing-with-capt-b/
How to pick which was area, which spot/location in the beach is better for fishing?

@@Fishin-Girl What the riptides, cuts, and such things, look like?
Can you post some photos of those?
Thanks in advance.

@@Saltstrong I can vouch for that course. It’s excellent! Bama Beach Bum (Matthew Isbell) teaches it and he does a great job!
Why did yall choose that spot?
Looks like the Melbourne area
Not sure what the exact location was that they were fishing
I need to do a video of the easiest way to tie a hi lo rig. I have never seen anyone tie them the way i do (although I am sure someone does), and it's so fast and easy

The spots and croaker are actually a good eating fish. The fish markets in the Carolinas drink then like hot cakes.
For sure!
You cast 4oz on a 17lb rig ?😊
You can get all of the rig details on the blog post: www.saltstrong.com/articles/the-ins-and-outs-of-beach-fishing-with-capt-b/
@@Saltstrong …… just checked it out…
oh boy, casting 4ozs on 17lb line..
Have you ever hurt anyone ?
As long as you know how to cast and also when needed have a shock leader in front of the rig you will never have an issue nice smooth cast are the key. Frankly I use up to 6 oz when needed have never had an issue. Tight Lines.

When are you doing another TH-cam video with Captain Hollywood. As a salt strong VIP member, I made a comment on his latest post. Requesting him back on TH-cam and he said he was ready. Come on Luke let's make it happen. We love Hollywood.
We'll be fishing with Hollywood again in Sept, so you'll be seeing a lot of him then. It's been a while, so he'll be in full force:)
@@Saltstrong Great news, he is knowledgeable and we learn something from him every time he's on TH-cam. 👍

W here in Florida is Capt b?
He is based in the Melbourne, FL area, and he fishes up and down the Brevard coast.
Brevard County, the Space Coast
Also, hate to be a tightwad but $6 is a lot to pay for pompano rig.
