Another fun awesome video. What separates you far and beyond other fishing TH-camrs is your ability to educate others with tidbits such as how to gaff , free spooling and other tricks of the trade etc… showing your setups and sharing every detail helps us all be better fisherman. Not only do I thoroughly enjoy your videos but I usually learn a little something too…..Thanks
Thank you much, it's always a joy being able to share the experiences that make it a successful trip.
Hey man. I absolutely love the Gulf Pier and have fished it for 8 years now and have been waiting for someone to start a channel specifically for that! Keep them coming man. I love them!
There are numerous GSP pages.
I have never fished a pier, but it's shocking how willing everyone is to help! Gotta love the fishing community!
Yes! pier fishing is a group community where most everyone is willing to help!
Man I've been watching Beach Bum , Brant and Camera man Ron for a long time and you put them all to shame ' thanks for the great content
I moved to FL 2 years ago, new to salt water fishing. Learned more from your videos then anybody else out there on TH-cam. You actually show the setup the bait what species to target. Thanks, keep them videos rolling.
“Come back catfoood “. lololololol.
Great entertaining video. Thanks!!
Haha ikr… glad you enjoyed it ! 😃
Thank you for taking the time to edit in the information about the name and catch laws. Very thoughtful.
Really enjoying the videos, I grew up in Mobile and I fished the same water growing up. Did my timein the Navy too. Good on you for the channel and the service
Nice fish! Great job and your fish tips are great as well! Thanks for sharing.

I’ve been fishing Gulf Shores since the 60’s and love every minute of it. I just hope and pray they repair the pier while I’m still young!
Your the best fishing yt all ur vids are great keep it up
Appreciate the kind words 👍🏼👍🏼
Love your content and the reason why i love Alabama fishing
Wow! Had me smiling. Looked like great fun
WOOO HOOOO .... Wonderful catch .... Great skills ... Able to read where the fish is heading too.... Full of experience .... Thumbs up dude 😎
You know it, Appreciate ya
I'm from North Carolina and have fished the coast there but live in the Philippines now with my wife and love your videos and the tips you share.I will have to put them to use here see how that will work for me anyway keep the videos coming always watching and enjoying 👍
Looks like one of the best places around to be! Fishing and fighter fly-bys, I call that a great day.
It's one of my favorite places to be for sure. I agree !
i really liked that you show in details the fishing rig you used.
keep up the fun.
Great video. And congratulations on that awesome fish
Thanks for bringing true enjoyment to my life.
Yay 😁 it’s back now I can learn more about the Alabama state pier
Woo hoo 🤙🏼🤙🏼
I grew up fishing the Gulf in Louisiana, then I spent 18 years in Minnesota fishing for a record bass. I found the easiest way to make a Minnesotan mad is when they ask why I moved up there I'd say, well someone had to come up here and teach you boys how to fish lol. The biggest largemouth I caught was 8lbs. I usually limited out on my way to work in the mornings.
Now that I'm officially retired and back home, look out Grand Isle!
Great channel, God Bless!!!
Dang good video with awesome information, thanks for sharing with us ✅💥✌️
Another amazing video great content absolutely love watching your videos, you have nice editing skills my friend 👍
Hey that Spanish mackerel that you gave that guy that's my good friend so that's pretty cool
Great video I will be there in a couple of days
Wow super video Steven!!
Great video man keep up the good work.
You’re videos are always on point. I was down fishing in may and coming again in July. The June weed was thick but fishing was still pretty good. I got a small request if you’re down. Will you make a video of all the knots you use? Again thanks for the sweet videos man. Tight lines
Finally a new vid, waited everyday for a new one😂
Appreciate ya!
Really enjoy your videos. dying to go do some fishing. big hello from South Africa
Thank you, that’s so cool ! Cheers and tight lines !
Atlantic bumpers and crazy fish are two different species. Bumpers are more round and have a greenish blue back with chartreuse tail and fins with an oil black dot on their tail. Crazy fish are more oblong and silver also Crazy fish have their stigma because they have a poison sack that connects to their belly horns and dorsal fin and causes pain.
2:00 THAT LINE WAS SCREAMING!! HOLY COW! ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ *POP*
IKR lol, his top shot was gone quick!
Great video great catch
You worked hard for it great job
BRET,HI,,,,, THATS a NICE SPANISH MACKEREL fry that sucker into stakes, Ihave NOTbought any I,n a long time 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
That's epic!!!!
i need to make a trip to alabama one day and fish this pier, always wanted to catch a spanish
We have an excellent fishery here for sure
Used to do great bout 15-20 miles due south off dauphin island with a good chum and some ribbon fish. Loved getting into a school of kings or whatever would come along
I’ll be down there in Aug- hope to see you there!! 👍🏼🐟🎣
It’s good fishing that time of year !! Tight lines
Heck yeah! Nice king bro. Will be back there in October. Can’t wait to hear that drag screaming. Great vid!
I love it! October is one of the best months for fishing (weather depending)
Awesome video!!! The King is going to make someone some awesome dip
Yes it will, the fellow I gave it too fishes freshwater and never caught a big one like that before. I'm glad he can take it home.
Heck ya man! I went on vacation to orange beach last week and found your channel by chance. Pretty addicted now
Hey man , you may not see my comment but I’m from Louisiana I’ve had great experiences fishing here but Ive recently gained family in Mobile I’ve been fishing multiple times and i haven’t been successful yet . Tried the pier i just can’t really get the hing of fishing here . If you could let me know when your going so i could get some pointers it would be very appreciated i love your videos . Thanks
Nice video, great skills
Thats pretty amazing right off the pier!
Great fishing I liked hearing the reels screaming, I'll try that treble hook and wire set up thank you.
Thanks, me too! Good luck!
I was just out there last week not much luck tho. Caught lots of sting rays at the beach house a couple pompano on your rig I got At hooked up. Also watch a shark go after a giant tarpon. 20 feet from us pull the tarpon ashore cause it was floating around us and took some pictures of it. It was a monster.
Hey great video. How much longer you will be able to catch Kings from the pier there?
We’ve caught them all the way into November, it all depends how cold the water gets in the fall 👍🏼
@@BamaSaltwater Thanks for quick reply. I usually go to the piers in Panama City and Fort Walton Beach but my buddy and I are now thinking about making run down to any piers in Orange Beach area during August or Septmeber
Wow how long was that king mackerel? It looked like it was fun catching. Why didn't you want to eat the king mackerel? It sounded like you were going to give him away to someone. That fish sorta reminded me of a wahoo I know that it doesn't have the stripes as a wahoo but it was rather long and bullet shaped.
I'm looking forward to more fishing adventures please make more videos. Are you going to take the boat out? Just curious. I don't mind watching you land them on the pier.
Looking forward to the next video. I feel I'm right there catching the fish.
The Lord continue to bless you with fish and crabs and more people watching you.
Janine Draper
wish i could fish like this, good catches my guy
Thanks!
We keep seeing people with matching wristbands. What are they for? Thanks and love the videos
It’s your entry pass for the day
Great video
Love your videos. Thank you for acknowledging our Good Lord. He makes all of this possible.
Looks like so much fun.. looks intimidating though
It is very fun! And can be anxious/intimidating. Just gotta remember everyone is out there for the same thing and most are willing to help each other !!!
Great video bro!
@bamasaltwater, I'm from Tennessee and really big into bass fishing / freshwater catfishing. I'll be in mobile bay area in the next 2 weeks. I have alot of flukes, fresh water jigs, and crankbaits. What size rod and reel , line , and basic lures would you recommend for saltwater on the pier and what times of day. I'm happy to catch any species, would love to catch and keep. But I can fish at night too. Thanks, - Trent from Tennessee.
I live in mobile, you should get by with a mid rod 15-25 test line and shrimp or squid if you can
Man I have to make a trip up there from Estero, FL! Looks like an insane time
Awesome catches!
SCAM
Just curious do you get stopped by your DMR there for fish surveys there? I know in Mississippi we go to a bunch of the boat launches and piers and do fish surveys. Was just curious if you get asked for some answers.
Yes, they do surveys here on a few occasions
I caught a kingfish about that size on my brother in law's boat first one ever boy were my arms tired keeper too.
Hello Steven I enjoy watching your videos so much, which has inspired me to go ahead and make a trip down there and go fishing at Alabama State Park Pier this weekend. I'm making a trip all the way from Houston Texas just to get a chance to fish there. Do you have any tips that you would recommend on the tackle to use there?
Completely agree with the crazyfish, people talk bad about them but I've had good luck with them, caught my PB 70 lb Cobia on one snapper fishing!
Yup! They’re excellent , hardy baits. My favorite for Tarpon 👌
Wish we could use treble hooks in Florida but we aren't allowed to. Very hard to catch some of these species on inline circle hooks.
Where you get your custom pier rod?
Nothing sounds better than a loud bearing on the manual of a 706 with 65 lb power pro stripping off of it !!!
Yes!
Would my setup be ok to target king mackerel from the pier? I have a 7’6” MH Fast action rod, pair with a Penn Fierce 3 4000 reel. Loaded with 30lb braid. Do you think it would be ok??
It's doable, but kind of light if a real big one hits. It's perfect for lures for Spanish and light reds
@@BamaSaltwater i also have a penn fierce 2 6000 with 40lb braid but no 8’ or 9’ rod for it. Never caught any king before.
Quick question, so what fish do you keep and eat?
Awesome!
That beard is looking good brother
Thank ya !
Nice king!
What are the wheels you've got on your cart? I'm looking to replace my orange balloon wheels and only use them on the beach from now on, I'd like a set just for the pier.
They're the standard Fish N Mate Wheels, J&M Tackle used to carry them, but you might be able to pick them up off of the Fish N Mate website : ** www.rodrack.com/accessories/tire-for-fish-n-mate/ . They work much better on hard surfaces, such as the pier, and hold more weight
@@BamaSaltwater Thanks dude! I can live with 70 bucks for a pair! I was gonna get the Grey balloon tires that are more rugged but they're 300 bucks, I could almost have a spare cart for that much lol.
One day I hope to catch a king Mack. Crossed off Barracuda (51”) my list a couple weeks back.
They're exciting for sure, both of those species. Except king , tastes just a little bit better haha
i’ll be down in a week where do u get ur live sardines or u cast net them?
Normally Sabiki them
What fishing rod reel and combo?
What is your rod rated in the catch Spanish mackerel
7' MF
Saw you working to remove that lure from the young guys lip. How in the world did he get hooked?
He tried to tighten his knot with his teeth, the lure slipped and it ended up hooking him!
Where can I get one of those gaffs?
Dang. Nice King …off a Pier!
Thanks!
Another awesome video!
Thank you!!!
@@BamaSaltwater did you see the comment under yours where someone is posing as you and trying to get people to text him?
@@rick_inflorida Yes, It's happening all over TH-cam. I report as many as I can
Any idea when they’re finally gonna finish construction on the end of the pier? It’s been like that for ages it seems.
not anytime soon unfortunately
Enjoying your videos! My son and I will be headed down this Saturday for a week of fishing. We’ve never fished this pier. Where do you get your fresh bait?
Normally J & M Tackle or Hooked Up Tackle
I love your videos
That’s awesome 🤙🏼
What is the best bait to use to catch a shark
Was this during the middle of the day in June ?
what kind of reels are you using to catch the big fish?🎣🎣
I’m in Foley & looking to get into pier/surf fishing. Do you have any resource for when species are in season and the requirements? Also what are some “must haves”?
This helps a lot with the size limits: www.outdooralabama.com/sites/default/files/PDF%20documents/Creel%20Limits%20B&W%20for%20printing_0.pdf . Also , must haves on the pier is a drop net and/or gaff (the net is extremely useful in bringing the fish up). Bring pliers, a measuring device, cooler with ice if you plan on keeping anything, a fillet knife etc.
When I come down in July I want to fish on cedar point pier. You think for us great viewers U could do a video there plzzzzz 🙏🙏🙏
I’ll try to get over there ! It’s good fishing there for sure
Wish I could do this but the Jacksonville Beach pier is closed rn but it is about to be re-opened
Dang! Hopefully it will open, y’all get some huge kings over that way
What happened to the Jax Beach pier?
@@robgover8341 got wiped from a hurricane a few years back
New sub! Liked 🙏😛
🤙🏼🤙🏼 Welcome to the Channel
I have no luck on a pier. I try to fish for mackerel and don’t catch any. Any tips
Put in time, nothing beats experience and patience haha. Also, observe those that are actually "catching". That'll help you figure out the best techniques/rigs/etc.
Nice dude 👍
all hail fish king
Was this filmed recently?
what reel is he using
