It is a big ocean so it isn't easy but I love a challenge and luckily in this episode we found some nice Permit, Grouper, Jack Crevalle, and Snapper!!!

Hello from Sri Lanka 😅 ... I've watched almost all of your videos. Great stuff Rich! Really enjoy them ... here in srilanka we don't get snook ... but we've got a lot of queen fish, Jackz, grouper and snappers I usually use a hand line to land decent sized fish...😅 I would love to fish using good gear some day perhaps. Keep fishing Rich 🎉
Thanks so much bro for watching!!! That sounds like a cool fishery in your home waters there!! I would fish there if I ever go the opportunity! Tight Lines!
The quality of your videos never let me down
Thanks so much!! Tight Lines!!
@@FishAholicTV no thank you for making these awesome videos that I can watch when I’m bored
The transition shots are amazing
@@lee8287 ikr
His vids are truly a work of art
Your editing and production are just top-notch, Rich. I don’t know how you have the time to do the high-quality editing with all the fishing you do.
Also, I really appreciate the honesty in your posts. If things weren’t going well, you make it known. When you have 30, 60, 360mins of slow-going but it’s just a blip on the video due to an edit, you’ll tell the truth and say you just put in the time but nothing happened. It’s refreshing.
Keep up the great work!
Thanks so much!! It does take a lot of time and at home work. I also have to fight the urge to go fishing if I’m trying to finish a video by a certain time. Like this video I really wanted to post it Sunday morning so I had to work most of the morning on Saturday to get it done.
10:55 on Sunday morning and my day is complete.. another great vid Rich!
Awesome, thanks so much for watching!!
Great adventure, nice grouper……
As always thanks for bringing us along.
Cheers
Thanks so much and really glad you enjoyed!!!
Don’t be afraid to fish keeper yellowtails when the season for grouper opens a lot of times when you chum up the snapper the groupers are on the bottom eating them
Finally got those permit you've been after for months!!
hahaha yeah finally!!!
Ikr
At the end of the video that drag squeal made me smile
Another wonderful and fascinating video, much to my delight!
Awesome!! Glad you enjoyed!!
So Rich on the south side (Atlantic) there are miles and miles of patch reef in between land and the big reef, generally between 14 and 25 ft if you anchor up current of a patch you mark well on you literally can catch so many species and some serious bigs. People get caught up in deep water mindset but i have had more great days with customers in the patches than out deep. Easier to target and less sharks. Get your chart and look inside from Washerwoman shoals to Western Dry Rocks a nice little 1 or 2 acre pile of reef will be loaded. Little tip if you ever fish them , leave the long Stuart leaders behind or you will be wrapped around 500 seafans etc. Also little tidbit on Yellowtails hold them across a 5 gallon bucket if they fit inside they are too small. If any part of his body hangs past the edge he is good to go. Typical patch day will be 3 or 4 giant Muttons 5 or 6 keeper Groupers and all the Snapper you want along with big Yellow Jacks and Mackerals. It is out of control how hard a Mutton rips in Shallow water!! Line screaming runs
The bucket truck it the bottom of the bucket, on hanging them into the bucket?
Great castnet technique! You’ve certainly improved over recent times. Really enjoyable video. Thanks.
Thanks!! A lot of time out there and I’m getting a little better haha.
Rich, great segment as always, grouper and mangroves were awesome.
Thanks so much and I’m glad you enjoyed! Next and final episode from this trip will go up Sunday of this week!
I was talking about how sick the coat looked before you mentioned it 🤣 def grabbing one
Hahaha glad to hear! I hope it keeps you comfortable!!
Awesome video rich! The gator blues just started showing up on Long Island. Here we go brother!
Awesome!!! Catch em up and thanks so much for watching!! I’ll make a few trips up these season to catch em!
Gotta love the bounty that is the Keys
Love all your videos! I will be in Marathon next week, do you have any suggestions on where to start.?
Fantastic stuff, as always. You're living the dream, man.
Hahaha thanks so much!!!
FINALLY! I HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS ONE!!! 😂😂 Havent even watched already know its gonna be a banger video!!!!
hahaha thanks so much!!! Episode 3 coming next week!!!
Great stuff! Cant wait for the next episode.
Thanks so much! Working on it now!! Hopefully it will go up Sunday!!
Found you from dillon. Great vids bro. Why always throw back the AJs? I mainly catch redfish in tx gulf. Thnx
Thanks so much!! I don’t always throw them back. But the larger ones in my area can be infested with worms. I’ll generally try and keep just right over legal size. Almaco jack is great eating too!!
Love the videos im always super excited for when they come out
Awesome!! Glad to here and thanks so much!!
Cool friend, very cool video,
Thank you for sharing your experience.
Thanks so much!!! Really glad you enjoyed!!!
Once again rich great video keep them coming still kind of quiet here just schoolies still fun tight lines
Hey thanks so much and for the bite update up north there! I’ll make a couple trips up north this year!!
Great permit catches!
Thanks so much Mike!!
Amazing grouper, love your videos. Where do you get your gloves from?
Hey Rich awesome video just letting you know yellowtail snapper are 12” fork length not to the end of the tail, fish on 🤙🏼
On the fish rules app it says 12” total length. I’ve checked many many many many times because I always forget. What area are you living in that it says fork length? Maybe west coast? Also if you check the FWC website it says 12” total length here is the link so you can see myfwc.com/fishing/saltwater/recreational/snappers/
Awesome trip man!
Thanks so much!!
As a fisherman who would rather spend the money on lures please get a better brand deal I jut couldn’t get myself to spend 115$ on a windbreaker but I love your channel and info keep it up legend
!
Aww ok 👌🏻 sorry to hear but thanks for your feedback. You can catch fish no matter what you are wearing but some people want to be more comfortable than others while doing so. The more comfortable then the more time you can spend out there.
Tangkapan yang sangat bagus .. temanku
Love your videos and channel. Headed to key largo in a month, taking my 6 year old any inshore spots or tips for him to catch any kind of fish would be greatly appreciated
Thanks so much and awesome! I hope you have a good trip! Something fun to do with the youngster would be inshore snappers on pretty much any dock or shallow mangrove. Also if you can get out in a kayak or small rental boat you can probably find some larger snappers in deeper creeks, or canal mouths. If you find a spot in a creek with deeper water, a boat dock, and a larger size boat docked there. You’ll definitely have a great chance at getting on a good snapper bite. Snook, Tarpon, and Juvie Goliath grouper could also be hanging out in areas like that. If you can get out on a flat. Casting around 3 to 4” crocodile spoons with a short wire leader can be really fun to catch cudas! But watch the teeth and the treble hooks hahah. Inside John Pennekamp park there are some creeks that run south and there some nice Snook, and snapper in the there. Although again you’ll need a boat or kayak to effectively fish. Shrimp casted with a small hook or slit shot would would work. Or a shrimp just under a float so the kiddo can see the bite. Good luck!
@@FishAholicTV awesome thank you so much! We have 2 2 person kayaks at the air BNB. I'll send you some pics if we do any good! Really appreciate the info.
Hey Rich, great content
Thanks so much!!!
Rich can you explain why you set your sinker so far from your bait? It seems dangerous to me how you must hand-line your fish. I keep thinking a cuds or shark is going to grab your fish and possibly hurt yourself
I honestly have the same question for the same reason, but I also know little to nothing about saltwater rigs so thanks for asking. I’ve learned a lot from watching Rich so there has to be good reason. I hope he sees your comment.
The water is like 50ft + visibility and some fish like mutton snapper which I was hoping to encounter are extremely line shy and won’t eat it if you don’t have a long leader. I recently though found these cool line clips for sinkers so I can have a long leader and then just clip the sinker off when I reel up with a fish on. I’ll put them to use soon so you all can see!
@@FishAholicTV I will be glad to see you unclip that sinker and then reel in the rest of the line!! It was not as big a worry with Mono, but the new strong and very thin braid will cut your finger off in a second. It will cut like a razor blade. Please get that new setup as soon as you can brother.
I've caught plenty of porgy but none have ever had such dark stripes. I thought it was a sheepshead at first....
Yeah it was a cool one!! I should have kept it.
Nice but why not keep the black grouper there’s no no closed season on them
How often do you reapply Dr. Juice to your artificial baits? Also how much of a difference do you think it makes?
Love the videos Rich, keep them coming!
Maybe every 30min to an hour or so. I also will smell it often to see if it’s scented up well haha 😂 thanks so much for watching!!
Big fish eat little fish that's a pretty good Exchange
Haha yeah for sure you know it.
@@FishAholicTV yeah it’s too bad that grouper was out of season
Nice to see the boat in the keys ! Moving next ? By the way I’m only 4 min in and this video looks like this is your home !
Hahaha maybe one day I can live there! But not at this time. Thanks so much for watching!!
Excellent videos. Sometimes, do you go out fishing without the help of any electronics?
Nice cast net throw. Could you share your technique?
Yeah I can a lot of people have been asking for a short video tutorial so I can do it.
Love your Videos Rich, I'm coming from Ireland to Marathon 2nd week June, and I'm renting a 22' C.C for 4 days, any basic tips or suggestions you would suggest?
Chum
That porgy would have joined the yellowtails if it was me. They're excellent table fare and perfect ceviche or even sashimi fish.
Really? I enjoy porgies that I catch up north. I imagine they taste similar. The next one won’t be so lucky then haha. Thanks so much for watching and I hope you are catching!!
I've had a few big ones hit the deck lately. Tight lines! Try some porgy sashimi on a catch and cook sometime maybe. My personal favorite.
Nice day
thanks Brandon for watching!
👍 trip ! Can you share why the yellow and green foam in the bucket is for?
It’s for keeping my really long leaders organized.
wow great
Thanks so much!!
That blue 🐟
yeah I love the color of the water!!
We are going to the keys on the 30th of August, renting a boat for the day. We've done it before and we've never gotten luck with catching or getting on the fish. Can you give me any coordinates or spots that we can check out cuz we only have 6 hours with the boat. I'd much appreciate it.
Should have just stayed down there for opening of grouper season.
Ahhh I know. But I’ll probably make another trip back down.
As a “only kayaker” why does your live scope or fish finder flicker like that or does it always do that ?
It just flickers because of the camera filming the screen. I wasn’t using live scope just traditional sonar. From my point of view it doesn’t flicker.
Yes! ♥
thanks for watching!!!
Where do you get your neck gators and gloves from?
Gloves are coming soon! The gator I have I believe is badfish but I’m not sure if they still make them.
When are you coming back to Charleston , and what is your go to spot here
I don’t think he’s coming back. The fishing is better in south Florida. More variety ! Not just reds, sheepshead, black drum , trout and flounder
I'll be back in May possibly to visit my sister and to do some fishing!
Emailed you for charting
25lb leader sounds heavy to me. What worries you about it being "only" 25lb? Is it getting cut on something?
25 isn’t that much for larger fish around structure , 30 is normally my minimum nearshore/offshore around structure.
25lb for bottom fishing for snapper is fine but it’s light for bigger fish like Barracuda that have razor sharp teeth, and also for grouper that are very strong and live around razor sharp structure like coral rock, or sunken rusty steel barges.
there is a shark swimming up in 12:43 wtf (at the left side)
Hey Rich, always wondered what boat you run. Make and model ? Thanks
hey there, its a 24ft fishmaster
@@FishAholicTV thank you. I dig the space , layout and stability
What’s that rod and reel combo that you caught the black grouper on at 15:17
That is a Mustad Dozer 8’ medium fast action conventional rod. I couldn’t find it on their website. It’s paired up with a Shimano 500 tranx bit.ly/3SjIEjp
@@FishAholicTV thank you
Take me on boat you won’t have to keep asking to get net I’ll be ready ! Get rid of dude
AH kills me to see you release Permit
ahhh sorry haha I've tried eating one once before and I didn't like it that much.
@@FishAholicTV Oh what’s your favorites to eat?
Lit
Thanks so much for watching!
Why throw away the permit??
Ha!!! First
hahaha thanks so much!!!
@@FishAholicTV next episode looks dope
HA 8TH LOL
hahaha still thanks so much for watching!!!
Video seems to be out of focus?
It might be your wifi connection on your end.
And you don’t need a 30 foot leader that’s stupid
