Good eating size slot red there. Throw some medium size mullet cut in half with a 3-4oz spider weight for some bull reds and black drum. Bull reds will fight like Mike Tyson, but black drum give up pretty quick. You can upgrade to 30-50lb gear and pull 6-7 sharks out of the surf.
nice great fishing man
never caugth a red but i have caught plenty of speckled sea trout at the pirates landing pier in port isabel. using some glow in the dark lures. im going fishing soon to south padre island surf fishing any tips on how to fish for some red man what kinda line to use?? thanks.
Great videos. Next time you feel like coming out to the Galveston arear, I’ll meet you. Keep in touch if you need a fishing partner in the this area. Keep posting those great videos!!
i’m about 37 miles from matagorda …yes! They have some good fishing …Nice eating size redfish …I’ve caught many of bull reds !! lol..What a blast to hook on to one!! I’m sure you know that feeling …and drums and sheephead are another favorite to catch …speaking of teeth …sheephead sure do have a set of those!!
@BraddaAllBussMokuNui would love to. Live on oahu now so hopefully I can get a chance to fish for them. I see them fisihng for em off the rocks all the time. what do you guys use to catch em?
@balla32636 Just a 4-8oz spider weight and fresh shrimp or mullet. I use those two hook lines with the weight on the bottom. keeps your baits a foot or two out of the mud.
great trip lol those are whiting not croaker btw
Nice going Man. But when holding a Trout, make sure your hands are wet if you’re releasing it, and it was unfortunate you didn’t get anything surf size, because those fish are all bay size. You have the dedication, keep it up man, Fishing is the best, Especially in texas.
i envy you guys down there i just starting surf fishing here in cali havent caught anything near that big or fight that hard only really got perch
usin a 7foot med action ugly stick with a penn suarga 4000 reel using 8lb mono thinking about swaping to braid tho as i just seem to be fishing sand bottom and cant cast that far out what kind of setup your using there?
@flipflopsneeded haahha right on man! thanks!
this guy loves fishing… Cheers dude!!! Thumps Up…
Hey Eddie nice video but if your targeting a shark your gonna need a stronger leeder I had the same one you had an a bull red broke the clip
that fucken fish is small..
go check out Ulua Fishing bro…….
Hell yeah man, surf fishing kicks ass.
Im gonna have to hit matagorda up some time, it looks really nice and warm.
cool. im on a quest to catch a shark too from the surf. but im down in galveston. so far ive lost 2 sharks cause i kept my drag to loose, but now i learned to keep it tight. ive reeled in mullet heads, and its made me angry.
Cool man….I love to fish matagorda and surfside beach. But you really need a fishing buddy if you are going to be on the beach alone at night, there are some crazy people that cruz the beaches at night just looking for trouble. My buddy is my son and 40 cal SW lol.
I am from Burkburnett Texas, but during these videos I was stationed at fort Hood in Killeen. Right now though I am stationed in Hawaii, but cant wait to get back to texas! The surf fishing here in Hawaii blows!
Where are you from Eddie? I live about 3 hours from Matagorda.
thanks man, pretty nice fish in your videos as well… any surf fishing in the carolinas?
5/5 great video
yea use big game equipment and you will catch yourself a monster
Eddie kicks ass. Great video.
