Doing what real fishermen do share their different skills and ideas So thumbs up for keeping the original fishermen alive on surviving fishing the waters of the world 🌎 to feed people and the Family. 👑Z👑🐟🌊🎣
Hey Jesse, I appreciate you making the time to produce educational content, not just this video but others as well. I have watched quite a few of your videos since finding your channel. Our family heads down from WI to St. George Island, Fl most years for spring break. We arrive next Saturday and stay for a week. Unfortunately, it looks like we arrive just as a significant cold front moves in for the week. Over the past 8 years, I pretty much fish anytime it’s nice enough for our family to be on the beach. I have a sand flea rake and have made my own pvc rod holders. I rent a beach cart for the week. I have always just fished the premade double drop rigs from the store. This year after finding your channel and a couple others, I realized I might be able to raise my productivity by tying my own rigs and actually using floats and various colored beads. My store rigs always just had a single reddish color bead. I have a big spool of 20lb Fluoro laying around so I have been practicing tying my own rigs. An order of floats and beads should be arriving in the mail anytime. Thanks for talking about how you use Fishbites. I realized I may have been using too large a piece when added with the shrimp or flea. If you have any tips or tricks for fishing a spring time cold front, I’d love to hear them. I am assuming it will slow whatever pompano run has already started. Also, I believe in a previous video you shared you were in the service and that had you moving from time to time. Thank you for your service to our country! My impression was you may be in the FL panhandle now, so I am assuming Air Force.
Thanks for watching. I’m a pilot in the navy. I’ve been catching pompano when it’s cold cold outside. You’ll be alright the pomp’s will be here. If you got any other questions let me know.
I’ll be in St. George first of April! Love that place. Great fishing! Also fish with some friends from Wisconsin and Michigan that come down at the same times. Have a great time there! 🎣
@@racrx7 Will do. We love it there as well. Have only been there once in April and the weather was perfect every day (usually there in March). Talked to locals and they say April is their favorite month. Have fun! Wading the bayside grass flats could be a blast then as well.
If you learned something in this video please leave a like comment and share it. All the websites for the gear I use are in the description. I hope this helps you guys catch more fish.!!!
Your videos are helpful and informative, especially for those just starting out and even teaches an old dog some new tricks. Not just another “captain 😖” that just post videos of themselves catching fish and wanting people to buy their sponsored gear. Keep up the great vids being helpful!🦈🎣
Good evening Jesse. Hope you and your family are well. I must say that your response, is very fast to all my comments. This speaks volume about your character. I truly appreciate you taking your time to educate me on the knowledge you have on pompano, and how you 💯 just share it with everyone on here. I appreciate your service as a veteran, and will keep you and your family in prayer. I have learned slot from you Sunday, and will always respect and support you. We thank you for your generous contributions to help educate us and show us the proper ways and tricks. Not to many people will do this for free. Tha k you sir for all that you do. 🙏 Be safe and tight lines. Demetrius
Hey Jessie, I noticed when tying your rigs you placed the beads closest to the hook. I am going to try that next time I tie some rigs for myself. Additionally I noticed when looking at my floats after they've been in the water they're pretty chewed up, I am assuming that is from crabs. So I have been using the larger tear drop floats and making my loops a bit longer, I believe that will keep my bait up off the bottom. Thanks again for teaching this old Chief new tricks....lol Tight lines brother
Man, Awesome tutorial! I will be making a board like yours! BTW, when that bead rolled and you rescued it, it occured to me to put a dished depression in the board for small rolling stuff!
Jesse, thanks for ALL your informative vids. One question.... I always see two top pegs but no one uses the lower peg when tying rigs. Why is it always placed below the only top peg, used?
just pickin up surf fishing and def great videos i would really like 2 get one of those boards if u cn get me connected im about 1hr north of Jacksonville i got to strike zone fishing alot lol
what do you do with your rigs at the end of a fishing trip to keep them from rusting apart? like… - do they go right back in the baggies? or do you try to keep the baggies dry? - Do they get a fresh water rinse and put out in the sun to dry? - do you put new hooks on a tied rig?
That’s a great question no one has asked me. If I leave them on the rods I do nothing to them. If I feel the hooks are starting to bend or lose their sharpness I will just change the hooks. If I cut a rig off I throw it in my bucket or cart wherever and then cut the useable tackle off and I will use it first to tie new rigs.
I tried looking up the homie who made your rig board and I can't find him-- any way you can grab his contact info so i can pick up one of these boards? loving all the vids you've been pumping out!
Cool set up. I'm heading to navarre Beach in Oct. I've researched some of these pompano rigs. I'm a Hoosier and do a lot of catfishing. They seem similar to a KY rig with two hooks. I wonder why you don't just tie a dropped loop on the end for the weight?
@SlotCityFishing will do bud. I've been casting storm sinkers all day. I make my own bullets and sinkers. Researched surf sinkers. Liked the storm sinkers kinda an in between for pyramid and spudniks it seams... got plenty of 2 thru 6 Oz now lol. Thank goodness for free lead.
@@SlotCityFishing always brotha. Iv been following your stuff for a while now. I actually down live far from u guys. Right here across FL line in bama. The pomps are starting to heat up here.
Loved this video. I am gonna get two of the tools you have to put my floats on. I have contacted the guy about my peg board. Are you on messenger ? And what name. I would like to give you my number, so that I can ask you some questions if this would not be a problem

@@zjzjbigfishcatches7740 thanks bro
Good idea with adding the swivel clip to the main line! Nice board btw.
Thanks brother!!! We need to go fishing soon!

@SlotCityFishing Will do. Thanks so much for responding. We'll look for you flying over the beach while we're there!

Another banger! Will be adding the quick connect to my set ups and giving it a go at tying my own pomp rigs
Noice brother. Glad that helped!!!
great video bro-- gonna have to check out DS custom tackle for sure for some beads!
They have great stuff for sure!!!

Nice Patrick that’s the fun part of tying your own rigs is you can try new things.
Great stuff as always!
Thanks bro

That’s a great idea
Awesome job bro, we'll be out that way sometime this year.
Sounds great Gordon!!! Figured you like the video.
Jesse, thanks for ALL your informative vids. One question.... I always see two top pegs but no one uses the lower peg when tying rigs. Why is it always placed below the only top peg, used?
That’s a great question. I’m not really sure I believe it’s to make bigger loops. I don’t really know.
Great video Jessie. I’ve got a similar board. Not as pretty 😁. Got my info from Pompano Brownie. Hope you’re catching lots of fish with your brother!
Yea we did
just pickin up surf fishing and def great videos i would really like 2 get one of those boards if u cn get me connected im about 1hr north of Jacksonville i got to strike zone fishing alot lol

I have another video similar to this one where I show how to do that. It’s the one about saving money tying rigs or something.

Awesome man there’s many ways to skin a cat. Use what you like bro. Especially if it saves you money.
I do this exact same thing. Ppl always ask why I keep like 10 rigs ready at all times. I always thought it was kind of self explanatory
Yea man gotta be ready. Thanks for watching.
@@SlotCityFishing always brotha. Iv been following your stuff for a while now. I actually down live far from u guys. Right here across FL line in bama. The pomps are starting to heat up here.
Why use a coast lock vs tieing to sinker directly?
Because you’ll have to cut the knot at the end of your fishing trip waisting a rig.
I'm never getting bites when using beads in the surf or pier..
They have a time and place but most of the time not necessary
Loved this video. I am gonna get two of the tools you have to put my floats on. I have contacted the guy about my peg board. Are you on messenger ? And what name. I would like to give you my number, so that I can ask you some questions if this would not be a problem
