Got in the store today. Don kept the doors open a hair late and spent time getting me geared up to try and catch our first Gulf Coast eater. Thanks 🙏 😊
Was in town last week for Easter vacation. Had dinner at LuLu's, and swung through the parking lot to check out the store. Was someone working inside with a white F250 in the parking lot. My family was telling me to go inside but I didn't want to bug anyone working. Looking great. Wish I was going to be there for the Grand Opening. We really love the area and we will be back soon!!! Good Luck!!!!
Matt- congrats in advance on the Store's Opening. Remember the source of your success- perhaps a Prayer Walk around your new building- giving thanks & prayers of protection might be in order. God's Speed on your (all) success!
We are coming from Benton, AR!!!! Looking forward to seeing your store and meeting all of you guys! Oh yeah! I am planning on spending some buckos too!!!!!
Back 30 or so years ago before they had to rebuild the pier, the old one had lights on it and the squid would come up by the thousands....there was a couple who would come and fish for the squid. They brought a small camp stove and cooked them right on the pier, I got noisy and was watching, they offered me a taste and boy were they good! Back then you could just take a small jigging spoon and catch them like crazy.
I wish I could come, but I’m overseas atm. Your fishing videos as well as those of brant and bearded brad keep me looking forward to going back to Florida and fish again
I'm from Virginia. I have been going to this pier for the past 18 yrs. It's my favorite pier it could be a little longer but the height of the rail is the best.
Great video Matt. I remember catching squid off the Santa Cruz Pier back in California. They do make tasty calamari. Too bad you struck out. Next time. Keep the lines tight.
The first bait was a squirrel fish and they're awesome bait. Anything that eats bait that size might eat one. I've heard them called sand perch too but not as much. Those squid were really cool. Seems like great live bait.
Fishing with a buddy a few years back we caught a squid in the castnet. He picked it up to use as bait and started laughing. I turned around and he had the squid "hugging" his fingertip. Kinda chuckled and turned around to hear him yell something I won't type out. Turned around again and he was shaking his hand and told me the squid had bit him!
I was fishing Gulf State Park Pier last week at night and was dropping my sabiki rig under one of the lights. To my surprise, I kept pulling in squid. I had never caught them with a fishing pole before. I can't wait for the grand opening of the store. I will definitely be there.
Taking a road trip next week from Orlando to Indianapolis and planning to make the detour to Gulf shores on the way home just because of the three of you. I'll be there around the 26th. THREE DAYS too soon!
I just wanted to take an opportunity to tell your lovely young life how absolutely beautiful and vibrant and strong and in condition that she looks she looks wonderful I'm so proud for her
I use a small hook when fishing live baits in clear water. I noticed that no matter how good the bait is the fish won't touch it if they see a larger hook on it.
Atleast I’m not the only one that has chased those reds on the pier with no success! 😂 that pier is a different breed. It can be complete trash one day, then at the drop of a dime it’ll be the best fishing ever. I will say it’s on my top list of frustration with the amount of dolphins.
Why Waterland sunglasses? I see you all wear them now, you’ve mentioned they are your favorite and you’ll have a case at the new store. How are they better than Costa or Maui?
Noticed your cart has the balloon wheels. How do they fare on the rough surfaces of asphalt and the pier surface? Might be an idea for a gear-related video.
No need for fishing gear. Just follow Matthew around. Thanks for making those guys day.
Love the Sabiki pier fishing - everyones favorite buddy at the pier is the one catching the bait😊
We are coming!! Can’t wait to see you guys.
Loved the video. I have never caught squid. Congratulations on your tackle shop opening. God bless you guys
Got in the store today. Don kept the doors open a hair late and spent time getting me geared up to try and catch our first Gulf Coast eater. Thanks 🙏 😊
We are coming! Can hardly wait for it.
Can't wait to come visit y'all in May! Great video Matt!

His success is due to his hard work and initiative. He can thank himself.

Of all the channels i watch on Lube-Tube this channel has the most commercials. I mean as many minutes of commercials as content!
Great job Lube-Tube.
You are going to make Brant jealous you know that's his thing 😂😂😂😂
Going to be at that that pier hopefully this Saturday morning… maybe see you there 😁

I would love to come to your Grand Opening but I`m stuck in NYC but I wish You All the Best!
That livewell is so cool did you make it or buy it?
Love the video, my wife and I will be in Orange Beach that week and we will be at the store opening. 13:05
We are coming!
Great video Matt! Some nice catch & releases to others.
I’m planning on showing up. Driving over from the Jacksonville area in my truck camper, spend a little time in the area exploring and fishing.
I'll be on the pier tomorrow, I can't wait!¡ Great video BBB, I hope to meet you someday face to face.
I hope I’ll be able to make it for Grand Opening. If not, Good luck and Congratulations!!

Nice day for fishing the pier I've eaten bonito not an issue with me
We call the first bait you caught “squirrel fish” I know they have a few other names. But they work great for reds, snook, tarpon, and grouper.
I agree-they're sometimes also called "sand perch." Scientific name is Diplectrum formosum, and they're actually in the grouper family Serranidae.
@@joeybenevento7262 thanks, interesting. I would have guessed they were related to gobies but I never thought about it.
I caught a cobia with one on an artificial reef. Dropped it down for grouper and Mr Brown showed up instead. I wasn't mad.
Awesome video!
I wish I could come, but I’m overseas atm. Your fishing videos as well as those of brant and bearded brad keep me looking forward to going back to Florida and fish again
We are coming to the grand opening!
Will be there from Kentucky!
What kind of fish is that??? The kind that swims in the ocean lol! You’ve got a great heart Matthew.
Checking in from Jacksonville: I’ll be there buddy!
Coming for the opening from Idaho.
I'm from Virginia. I have been going to this pier for the past 18 yrs. It's my favorite pier it could be a little longer but the height of the rail is the best.
Fish live squid under a float. love your videos.
Great video Matt. I remember catching squid off the Santa Cruz Pier back in California. They do make tasty calamari. Too bad you struck out. Next time. Keep the lines tight.
Squid are delicious even the tiny ones. Never let those go again. They are one of the most sustainable fisheries too.
Those calamari would’ve been delicious! See ya at the grand opening.
The first bait was a squirrel fish and they're awesome bait. Anything that eats bait that size might eat one. I've heard them called sand perch too but not as much.
Those squid were really cool. Seems like great live bait.
Heading down from Atlanta.
Get some squid jigs… it’s a blast!
My son and I are coming down for the opening from Maryland!
I’m coming from the Savannah, Georgia area. I’ll be there Saturday and Sunday!!

That beak will tear you up.
@@dasavage yep! For sure!
A boat would be the best! 🎉
I'll be swinging by a few days after the grand opening, just the timing of vacation in Pensacola. First week of May!
Hope to be there. Coming up from Fort Myers

Hubby and I are coming from Missouri!

You good man
Will be there 👍
First bait species was a sand perch. Love the colors on those guys
I just wanted to take an opportunity to tell your lovely young life how absolutely beautiful and vibrant and strong and in condition that she looks she looks wonderful I'm so proud for her
Coming down that week to fish the surf. If we can get in the parking lot we hope to see you there.
I use a small hook when fishing live baits in clear water. I noticed that no matter how good the bait is the fish won't touch it if they see a larger hook on it.
Coming down from Indiana staying Thursday through Sunday!
Nice video! You gotta ask anglerupwithbryant about his squid rig! 😂 love the videos!
I will be down from Indiana to visit your store at the end of July!
You can cook up those squid in spaghetti sauce too and it's good.
Fry up some fried Calamari, it’s delicious!
If you have any Alewives (LYs) around red fish love them. I wear red fish out on the County pier at PCB using them.
First fish was a sand perch.
We are coming to the grand opening
So -- catch and cook cigar minnows? Maybe next time?
Match the hatch. Live squid is a killer bait.
We're planning on it...
Someone needs to get Waterland to make a lens to put over your GoPro so we can see what you're seeing.
me and the wife cant make the opening but will be there week of May 13-20
We will be there
I'm coming, most likely the 30th
From Louisiana hello Bama hope I can make it to the opening
Hey it wasn't that bad he caught a Spanish and make your ceviche sounds like a win 2 me
Atleast I’m not the only one that has chased those reds on the pier with no success! 😂 that pier is a different breed. It can be complete trash one day, then at the drop of a dime it’ll be the best fishing ever. I will say it’s on my top list of frustration with the amount of dolphins.
I had one that looked like a Whiting and it changed colors it had stripes on it when it changed in my bait cooler
Why Waterland sunglasses? I see you all wear them now, you’ve mentioned they are your favorite and you’ll have a case at the new store. How are they better than Costa or Maui?

I LOVE THERE PIER FISHING VID AND TY FOR PINNING MY COMMENT last vid
BEACH BUM
I will be there
Noticed your cart has the balloon wheels. How do they fare on the rough surfaces of asphalt and the pier surface?
Might be an idea for a gear-related video.
Yeah I have balloon wheels on my cart too and used it on the piers, I had to no issues
Good on the pier.
Mine is good on any beach or pier.
No sabeekee in the octagon
I was wondering why you were throwing those squid back. They’re great fried up but do tend to pop a lot when you deep fry them fresh.
What will be the hours of your grand opening?
Matt fishing for squid…hmmm.
See ya at the opening need more eggs?
PB squid
👍
Hate I'm not there anymore but I'll let ppl know.
Any time I put a live squid on I'll get smoked.
What is the adress
