Exactly it's the growth bob that always made striper fishing in the river great at least the older piles these new cement foundations just ain't the same as the old wood pilings with mussels and bait fish around them at least still have large schools of herring that show up next month that the bass love before moving into the Hudson nice video as always
@@BobAquatic it's all about the wood with growth and mussels bring in bait fish in return everything else that's the answer to your blackfish bob that lasts till December
@@MrSeethe urban fishing is special for sure, it’s cool to see people work with what they got. Love the alligator gar videos, some of my favorites to watch on TH-cam
Just had An amazing cup of coffee while watching your latest video brotha, pure therapy. Just ordered my saltx spinner real to pair with my tsunami surf rod for the fall striped run. your videos are exactly what fishing is all about. I’m sure I speak for many when I say thank you for this fun and exciting content. You are the bob ross of NYC angling! Tight lines my brotha.
Great video. Hello from Canada. I just love grubs. Some of the things I like about them are, they are way easier to acquire and keep in good condition opposed to live bait. They work on pretty much every species of fish, you can imitate anything a fish eats with them by changing the colour and how you fish them, you can fish it in almost every way, lots of people don’t throw them so fish are typically not used to seeing them. They work scented or unscented if you have allergies or going into restricted waters. Work in salt water and fresh, And they are usually pretty dang cheap.
@@ConeyIsland1952 there’s big fish, I just started doing more river videos during the slow season to scout around and find new spots. A lot of these videos are in preparation for the Fall bass
Ohhh! I just came back from fishing there myself!! I'm a beginner and I found your channel a couple of days ago to get ready for fishing in the city. Caught an oyster toad fish! Do you give lessons?
I tried the first spot during lunch last week with just soft plastic had no luck. Trying again sometime this week. But it is noisy with all that traffic all day.
I always fish with AirPods on so the noise gets canceled mostly. A lot of times I don’t like people talking to me too much while I’m fishing 😂😂. They are also a barrier for that
@@darkblade9725 this time of year I just go when I have free time. But when I’m serious pattern fishing I do hours of research every week to be in line with the tides/weather. It takes a lot of off water preparation. I also have years and years of logs to go off of
I feel ya. I think it’s actually an old word that means “flat” fish. People say it in the NE to diversify winter and summer flounder. Cheers bud fish on
@BobAquatic down here in Louisiana we call them Flounder and my Cajun family has always called them that! Then you have others like Alaska that call them Halibut which are basically a huge Flounder! It's just weird that people change the names for different parts of the country! Have you ever fished in Louisiana before? If you haven't and you ever make a trip to Louisiana hit me up I'll put you on Louisiana Bull Redfish and speckled trout and black Drum Tuna we have it all! Peace and I'm about to subscribe!☮️✌️🙏
The thrill of victory and the agony of da-fin..that Fluke tho!
@@fishn365 I had fun, thanks for watching

@@petergucci4024 the submerged wood is where’s it’s at. So much history and growth for fish to thrive

That's where I caught my first City Striper! Solid 30"
@@llllogix that’s what’s up Myke_V! Congrats on that catch
Thats where I sit at lunch! Tight lines!
@@AN0NYMOUS1_69 that’s an excellent lunch spot, those chairs are comfy
Always enjoying your videos brother.
@@fishingwithbori yo thank you Bori! I enjoy your videos too, I always catch up on them
Love the action bob great job
@@FinnNbonesFishing thank you FinnNbonesFishing!
Greetings from Texas. Urban fishing always fascinated me. There's a scene in Houston. Big alligator gar to be caught downtown.... anyhoo, cheers

@@Hitman023 have fun with that new setup! Should be a great year for bass, it’s the shore anglers time to shine in the fall
Love the content keep it coming!
@@MasterInvesting thank you!
Hey.. cool videos. Try the upper east side between the 91st street marine transfer station and the fast ferry. 😮
@@dannylynch9834 for sure, I’ll go film up there. That area has great structure. Thank you for watching danny, appreciate the comment

@@ColtonWilson3000 grubs work so well, glad you enjoy using them too. Have fun fishing up there in Canada!
Good action once again
@@stefanramjag1761 thank you Stefan
Nice effort todayBob... thank you for sharing.....question why are most fish in NYC /Bklyn rivers mostly smaller as shown in your videos.?
@@ConeyIsland1952 there’s big fish, I just started doing more river videos during the slow season to scout around and find new spots. A lot of these videos are in preparation for the Fall bass
Dang I used to stomp around 60th and Lenox Hill. I miss NYC
@@johnbonamigo5696 it’s a fun place to live
I've caught nice striped bass in those spots at night during the fall run🎣🎣🎣🎣🎣
@@wormway_69 glad to hear your out there having fun
Love/Hate looking for new spots myself
Try earplugs if it’s too loud and the fishing’s good!
Great vid
@@BenjiMac-q7l thank you bud, I have plugs and headsets for sound it’s just not too safe to use them in public with your back turned in nyc
Have you tried Randel’s island? I’ve got a ton of bass there before
@@chefdavidsantos yes I’ve fished it a few times, never filmed a video though
Ohhh! I just came back from fishing there myself!! I'm a beginner and I found your channel a couple of days ago to get ready for fishing in the city. Caught an oyster toad fish! Do you give lessons?
@@Se0ultrain congrats on that catch. I don’t have the license/insurance to guide properly. Appreciate you watching Se0ultrain
You should’ve fished the ferry dock near 90th St. in manhattan
@@fishingwithjacob1 I think I might’ve, don’t remember but Probebly didn’t make the video because no catch
I tried the first spot during lunch last week with just soft plastic had no luck. Trying again sometime this week. But it is noisy with all that traffic all day.
@@FishingWithLou the noise level is pretty insane, lot of fish there though. Maybe quieter at night
Great Video! How do you carry your fishing rods on your e-Bike?
@@tsienj thank you! I cut PVC pipe into rod holders and then zip tied to the milk crate
Looks like a nice eBike that you're riding. May I ask what model bike? Thx!
Its an Engwe, haven't had it for very long but its really fun
I always fish with AirPods on so the noise gets canceled mostly. A lot of times I don’t like people talking to me too much while I’m fishing 😂😂. They are also a barrier for that
Interesting bike ride to fishing spot mate. Looked hectic 😂.
How's the amount of subs you have these days. Frigin awesome dude!
@@adriangray459 thank you Adrian, you are a real one. Appreciate you. Always love reading the comment from your side of the world
Caught a nice keeper fluke today we put lemon pepper seasoning a grilednit
@@Winyandtheboys congrats on the fluke catch! That seasoning sounds like a solid choice, fish on
What type of e-bike do you have? It seems like your able to travel a good distance on it
@@Chinoxl1034L engway. I’m still breaking it in but no major issues so far. It’s really fast
@@Chinoxl1034L sorry Engwe it’s spelled
Bob where is your second spot
@@JeanLatacela the East River esplanade
Hey man how do you know when the fish are going to bite do you just hope you get a fish?

I'm glad it was a fluke I haven't of one in a couple years in the east river Whatever happened to all the eels in the river
@@justabrake I think the eels are still pretty thick, I don’t see them but many other people do. I mostly fish the salty part of the river
Believe it or not that first site you fished in Manhattan was once the location of an active heliport. Talk about noisy in the extreme!
@@johnmcinnes6644 dang I didn’t know that, appreciate you dropping the history John, I love learning about NYC development. It’s pretty fascinating
What was that Sea Robins?
@@jimakcelik6486 Black Sea bass, tautog, fluke (summer flounder)
@@jimakcelik6486 bergal too
Bob how do you have so much free time for adventures
@@johnbonamigo5696 I honestly don’t, double dip often to make this channel possible
Why does the east coast always gotta screw up fish names? Where in the heck did fluke come from! A fluke is a Flounder period!
I feel ya. I think it’s actually an old word that means “flat” fish. People say it in the NE to diversify winter and summer flounder. Cheers bud fish on
