@@brandonmolina711 dude I was actually there today at the dike since 7am to 1. And got skunked. Had two surf rods on cut mullet and nothing. Hardly much people dud caught anything. Beside this white that was beside me caught two bulls. First cane off the hook the otehr landed 37 inch
@@civicturbo11 I’ve learned from fishing the dike the farther you cast in the channel is better. You just gotta get it in the drop you’ll be able to tell if you made it you spider weights gets set quick!
@@brandonmolina711 I noticed more get caught the deeper you to in the dike. Once you pass the big wooden tower. Yesh I am still learning how to cast the big surf rods. But I'll be there with you
I need to get the proper tool for it. It doesn’t affect them but it kinda looks bad the way I do it. Lol but yes most fish that you catch deep down might need it thanks you for the support! 🙏🏽
@@brandonmolina711I agree I've never seen anyone use a knife 🤣 But hey it worked, and the fish was safely released. Most people would just let it die. I can't stand seeing people just throw them out, and let them float. I've actually thrown my cast net before to revive someone else's on a pier
That fish definitely died. You can’t punch a hole in the swimbladder and it just go on doing its thing. It just sank to the bottom and died. It couldn’t regulate its buoyancy after that. Get a fizzing needle.
A lot of people in this area have this kind of leaders. It’s probably one of the best ways to catch reds so with these leaders if your fish runs into structure your leader will hold and not bust and also if you watched this video you see I put my hook on the spider weight so I can make it better to cast.
What shop are you buying crabs from? I'm not that far away from y'all, but new to the dike. I love that MX, I got lucky and scored a left hand raptor the other day.
I’ve always had better luck when I set one up close, one about half your normal cast, and one out as far as you can cast, Helps cover as much water as possible, and sometimes their closer in, sometimes their further out.
@@brandonmolina711you still go out there? I haven’t been in about a year or two. Heard they are planning to extend the pier like another half mile or something.
I love those set up's. I used to make my own leaders when shark & Bullred fishing but I can't find the crimps, sleeves, etc. @ Academy in LakeJackson. We have Kayaks now & have been limiting out on Reds every time out. Around X-Mas Bay & San Luis Pass. It's hot, those Reds are running thru but they are mostly slot. I'm grabbing another set up from Academy, thinking of getting the PENN Rival 6'6" Rod Combo 30 series reel. 🤟
Hello Brandon! I have a quick question. I'm new to Houston and I want to catch my first red and do some jetty fishing sometimes. Going to purchase a setup next week for the big boys. Would you have an interest in me coming fishing and you sharing some tips for red fishing and etc.?
I didn’t think I had to but it wasn’t going down. If you are familiar with the dike there is some deep holes or channel drop. Most fish from the dike don’t need it but this one wasn’t but after I did I swam strong. 💪🏽
@@brandonmolina711 I’m not actually bro I just moved here but I am actually going to fish the dike this evening! I’ve been fishing San Luis pass in Galveston and Buffalo bayou here in Houston. The dike is a 30 min drive so I’m gonna go check it out today. I had no clue the water got that deep there. I actually started looking up videos of the dike today to get an idea of what to bring. Ima bring some mullet and a big stingray I caught and try my luck
Watch out for needles laying around out there, I know some of the BOIS like shooting heroin and coke out there. If they as ask you for a red just give it up to em. They will put saltwater in your gas tank if they get upset.
Hey Brandon, nice to meet you bro just to let you know I would like to meet you and go fishing so I’m from Chicago but I have the possibility to fly over there so if you hit me up and we just can actually talk more on personal face-to-face on the phone I’ll be appreciated. I see all your videos you’re fucking awesome. Yeah please give me txt or let me get your ig so I can talk more there ok

What kind of line do you have on your avet reel
So my main line is true braid of 30 pounds and my top shot is suffix of 40lb
Thanks that’s the same setup I have I didn’t know much about them so the FTU guy recommended with mino only
Why do you use leaders? I'm new to saltwater fishing and am moving to this area so I'm trying to learn as much as possible about all this
A lot of people in this area have this kind of leaders. It’s probably one of the best ways to catch reds so with these leaders if your fish runs into structure your leader will hold and not bust and also if you watched this video you see I put my hook on the spider weight so I can make it better to cast.
What shop are you buying crabs from? I'm not that far away from y'all, but new to the dike. I love that MX, I got lucky and scored a left hand raptor the other day.
You can find the crab at fiesta Hong Kong market or even Boyd’s bait shop inside
@@brandonmolina711 Awesome, appreciate you. Going to start fishing more that way this summer, hopefully will run in to y'all some! Tight lines.
Great video. Where can I buy the same weights for fishing?
You can buy them at the bait shops
Can you make a video on how to make the fishing leaders
Awesome catch brother
Thank you!
Good info bro! I’m on my way to the dike with ray 💨
No invite👀😂
Badass video !!!
You know it cuzzo!
LFG!!!!! another banger!!!!
Thanks homie‼️💪🏽
Where do you buy your crab?
I usually get them a Hong Kong market on Scarsdale
@@brandonmolina711 bet ! Just found your channel! Great content
Thanks for sharing bro
No problem 👍

I’ve always had better luck when I set one up close, one about half your normal cast, and one out as far as you can cast, Helps cover as much water as possible, and sometimes their closer in, sometimes their further out.
It’s always good to have one far and one mid and one closer to figure them out first
You shanked that fish back to life bro! Good job though. I have been there a bunch but always catch the babies and hardheads.
Just gotta get that bait far brotha! 🤓☝🏽
@@brandonmolina711you still go out there? I haven’t been in about a year or two. Heard they are planning to extend the pier like another half mile or something.
Love that intro
I need to start these again
Thank bro!! 💪🏽
Venting, did not see that one till now, will buy a vent tool
Yes it’s always a good thing to have it just in case your Bullred doesn’t wanna swim off and is only floating. 👍🏽
Good job homie
Thanks brotha! 💪🏽
What are you using for main line? Ive only fished for bass gonna make my way to the salt soon
My main is diamond braid 30lb and top shot was 40lb
Does that hurt the knife? 🔪
Good question

Oh yeah I’ve seen that set up before it’s pretty good! 💪🏽 and yeah man those reds are running pretty good!
If you're ever over in Alvin our Walmart has everything you need
Great Video Bro. Fish On 🎣🎣🎣🎣
Thank you Cliff! 💪🏽
That avet💪
Why do you put the hook in the leg of the weight?
2 reasons why I do that is bc it makes it shorter and easier to cast and second is bc when casting, the weight could pull the crab off the hook.
Makes perfect sense, keep on fishing brotha!!
Hello Brandon! I have a quick question. I'm new to Houston and I want to catch my first red and do some jetty fishing sometimes. Going to purchase a setup next week for the big boys. Would you have an interest in me coming fishing and you sharing some tips for red fishing and etc.?
It just depends on what day you can go
I wouldn’t mind
@@brandonmolina711 As soon as I purchase my setup I can take off work if it's a planned trip.
Good video cuz!
Thank you cuzzo! 🙏🏽
What size line on the spinning rod?
I had 50lb I know it’s a over kill lol
Oh men that's awesome where can I get those leaders
Thank you for clicking on my video brotha means a lot!! 🙏🏽 if your interested in purchasing some msg me through my email and we can get it rolling💪🏽
nice catch bro!
🙏🏽 thank homie!
Great content!
Thank you! 🙏🏽

Just caught a beast 38 inch bull red 04/07/2023. At the dike, on half a blue crab! Same set up!
Congratulations bro¡ love catching bulls @ the dike 👍🏽🔥
@@brandonmolina711 thanks bro! Awesome you sharing your set up, how’d you get to making your own leaders? Do you make the spider weights as well?
@@7Seven1OneThree3 I only make my leaders I buy my weights.
Nice fish but no need to vent a fish from that shallow of water boss man

@@SeafoamSteve I always take live blue crabs. Probably on of the best baits for the dike!
I actually want some leaders !
Let me know brotha!
Why y’all fish to just throw the fish back?
@@blinxunruly big fish like that yes other keeper size fish like trouts slot reds no we keep them.
Watch out for needles laying around out there, I know some of the BOIS like shooting heroin and coke out there. If they as ask you for a red just give it up to em. They will put saltwater in your gas tank if they get upset.
I usually don’t go alone but we could def catch a round lol but thanks for the info 🙏🏽
Hey bro I like to go to Texas city for fishing can contact you so you can give me some ideas we’re to go?
I usually try to go past the 4 mile mark any thing pass that is great fishing. But try to cast as far as you can 🔑
