Awesome. I’ve been catching tropical strays up in Rhode Island this summer with a net. Will def try a tiny hook and line next year. Looking forward to checking out the rest of your videos. Makes me want to document my finds too!
Thanks! I use Owner Half Moon Tanago hooks for the majority of my micro catches. The Gamakatzu Ultimate Tanago hooks work well too for the extremely tiny stuff. I like documenting my catches on the GoPro since a majority of the time I fish by myself most of the time it helps me feel not so lonely 😂
In the late summer months the water around here usually peaks around 75 degrees which is warm enough to sustain these fish that are used to a warmer climate. It’s not until October that temperatures begin to fall and the fish that aren’t strong enough to form a migratory school either get eaten or die off from colder temperatures in the fall. These fish get swept up in the Gulf Stream as eggs or larval stage fish which is how they end up this far north.
I would say it’s still possible to get them. Water hasn’t cooled off quite yet. Probably the first week of October most tropicals will be on their way out. If you plan on looking for some I would go at low tide and make sure winds aren’t too rough. That way you have good visibility!

What a night!!
Nice job
Thanks!! It will likely go down as the best outing of my career 😅 all that in just under 4 hours.
@@TheVilleOutdoors I'm jealous
@@brianshea8911Sorry! 😅
is it too late in the season to get tropical or anything rare or is it still possible?

@@TheVilleOutdoors oh okay thank you i’ve been wanting to get some new types of fish tired of catching the same types always lol
