    I always love videos like this cuz a lot of that crackling and grinding that you hear is the fish making sounds to communicate. documentaries tend to edit it out a lot so footage like this that's more raw is always delightful cuz it actually has a proper soundscape

    Wow, the surprise visit from the turtle was the highlight of the video for me, not sure why, but I've always been drawn to them. They look so peaceful swimming out there.

    I used to live pretty close to that beach! The small, pale snappers with yellow lines and a black spot on their back were Lane Snappers, and the pompano-like fish that the kid caught (which you could also see swimming in a big school above the bait) is an Atlantic Bumper (in the Jack family). Also, fun fact, the croakers that you saw filtering through the sand weren’t typical Atlantic Croakers, but a closely related species called a Spot (generally more blocky in shape and with a larger shoulder spot). Also, HAPPY NEW YEAR!

    • @dynamoterror7077
      @dynamoterror7077 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      The fish that the kid caught doesn’t look like a Trevally or a young Jack Crevalle, but after looking back through the video it also isn’t identical to an Atlantic Bumper. To me at least, after a bit of research, it most closely resembles a Blue Runner (another member of the Jack family).

    • @whatisthishandlegarbage
      @whatisthishandlegarbage ปีที่แล้ว +1

      lmao you would die. Nature is sinister in a way because it lures you in with its beauty, but kills you with its conditions. For one, you would have no drinking water because sea water is not drinkable, second, tropical islands are dry and pretty much have nothing to eat, and the jungle rainforest areas are full of poisonous plants and animals you can't even tell until you try. So as much as I also wanna do that, it would be a short life, unless you're at a resort. Not to mention the sun will burn you in the day and dehydrate you with heat, and at night it will be cold and windy and freeze you.

    Really neat. I grew up on the fishing piers of the OBX of NC in the 80s, and visited the ones on the gulf side of Florida as well while visiting grandparents. Mostly Venice pier and Anna Maria Island pier. Also Sarasota bay and some of the jetties as well. Funny story, first time we went to Venice pier, we brought our tackle box that worked at the Outer Banks of NC. We started to cast for Spanish Mackerel using Gotcha plugs/jerk jiggers. The first time the locals saw one, they kind of joked it, saying it wouldn't catch anything. They still used bottom rigs, popper bobbers, spoons and maybe bucktails. Our second cast, we hooked into Spanish and slayed them. Let's just say they wanted to buy every one we had. We also landed a nice King Mackerel using a two pole anchor rig, something else they didn't know about back then. We also learned quickly how much of a nuisance pelicans are. We have them at the OBX, but not to the level Florida does, especially Anna Maria.

    How cool. I've always wondered what the fish under the pier do, where they hang out and why. Also makes me happy that the dolphins are smart enough to know not to grab the hook. Less chance of a hook getting stuck in their jaw and getting infected. It's probably a low chance either way but it can't hurt to avoid the hook entirely.

    Fun to watch, thanks for posting. If you want to get more tech going, you can get a 360 camera with a dive case, then when you edit you can choose which part of the 360 video you want. That's useful if a fish, turtle etc swims behind the camera, you can just follow it around when you edit. But editing the video, etc is a learning process.

    I love that there are so many fish in the ocean that a dude who’s been fishing it his whole life is like “I don’t know what that fish is?”
