If I learned nothing but one thing in my time in the Marines, it was that surf fishing is a whole different beast that's so satisfying to do.

❤ I live in Killeen Texas. I grew up 7 miles from Freeport. I grew up on a saltwater bayou in a house on stilts. I would go fishing about 100 yards from my house. Now my favorite fishing spot is Aransas Pass.! my wife and I like to take our RV and camp there and go fishing! Thank you for sharing all of your videos! I’ll learn a lot from you!

Yall are fishing where I take my family every year for vacation. The jetty is a good place to fish and the mouth of the river. Keep driving down the beach and yall will hit the river and fish there. I have caught sharks and big bull reds there to feed my family for a week.

Love to see y'all having a great time!

Great catch Erin! You guys convinced me to start fishing again. Im heading iff to Big 5 today. You remind how fun life can be. Thank you!

Another successful fishing trip with Hey Skipper Team !! Very nice Reds.

I'm from San Antonio, TX and love your rigs/ salted baits. Went out to the coast this weekend and slayed using your products.

Nice catch guys.. thanks for sharing such an amazing adventure on the Texas Coast, tight lines my friends 🤙

I love watching you fish! I'm going this weekend!

I swear, redfish are one of the hardest fighting fish. It’s like a glorious croaker! They are epic!

Palacios Tx is a good place to fish pier fishing is really good there.

Really excellent video with family fun... entertaining and educational as always!

a very extraordinary angler, with good bait and a sizable fish pull is very good to see, the spirit is always and success🙏

Si estan en Texas tienes que ir a las escolleras de Boca Chica. Pesca + SpaceX = Fun! Fun! Fun!

We've all had those days when the only thing that bites is a catfish. It happens to every fisherman who fishes beaches, bridges, etc. All we can do is go with the flow.

Great job on lending the tank Brandon and good job Erin for landing that nice size redfish 😄💪

I'm actually from north texas and I've been to Corpus, galveston, and bolivar peninsula. Corpus I think has better fishing because it's clearer mainly because you literally don't have to go that far for DEEP water. Therefore there's not much shallow water for the sand to kick up. Galveston most of the time I find you'll get catfish unless you toss in holes or further out. However, a big factor is they mainly go for the shrimp. You use shrimp in the surf most likely a cat but if you go in the water till chest deep then cast as far as you can you have a higher chance for reds on that shrimp. That's how I catch the monster ones but from jumbo size shrimp like mullet the bait has to be big

awesome video! those takes were epic as plus the reel screaming like hell. epic work on both of you guys on landing those good redfish after getting plagued by the catfish

Best fishing spot where you are is Sargent Beach. Matagorda Beach is also great. Both of these areas are great for Red Fish, Trout, Sharks, and Giant Stingrays. Unfortunately, they also have a lot of Hardheads. Matagorda has tons of shells on the beach. Freeport Beach doesn't have that much shell. I have caught many fish in this part of Texas. When the mullet are in the surf, the trout get big, I have caught near 30 inch trout in the surf on live finger mullet.

Careful handling those hardheads. I have caught 100s and handled them by hand until once I got jabbed with its fins. This was some of the most pain I have ever endured. The only way I could stop it is putting my hand in extremely hot water. When I catch on one I will only pick them up with very long pliers.

Hey You Two, Nice video. Congrats on the fish. I'm glad Erin got to get one on her own. She is always a joy to watch her reel one in. You should try to use some of those small catfish as cut bait. Take some clippers and clip off the spines that sticks you (for bigger catfish you don't even have to do that) and cut up like you do any other cut bait. You're catching enough of them you might as well use them for bait. You'll always have a supply of bait. Good luck. Thanks...

The slap heard around the world…Redfish tail and Erin’s face. Lol

I've been waiting on this video. I currently live in Houston and have enjoyed watching ur videos in other parts but the gulf coast is a different breed.

From Surfside. Other great fishing places along the coast headed south are Matagorda Bay, Port Aransas, the Packers Channel jetty in Corpus, Baffin Bay in Riviera, Thomae county park in Arroyo City, Beach Access 6 South Padre Island, SPI Jetties, Brazos Santiago pass, Boca Chica Beach and the Rio Grande River, the jetties, South Bay. I probably missed a few spots along the way but you can’t go wrong on these spots. Love your guys channel.

I’m from California San Diego watching lots of your videos I’m learning bc I want to start surf fishing 🎣

When you gonna get a boat? It's nice that you show folks how you do it from the beach and the lessons you've learned.

sometimes, if the hook is set too deep, ripping it out can damage the fish more than just leaving it in.

Good tols you have. So good

My favorite place to fish is San Luis pass. I highly recommend it.

From port Arthur mcfaddin beach is by far the best red fishing

Hi skipper i wanted to thank you for all the help that you’re giving here on youtube for free and helping beginners to be proffesional but i wanted to ask if you could make a video about the specs that your first fishing set need to have when you first start fishing like the rod size,reel size,lines size and etc. It would really help beginners and anyway thanks for your kindness!

Last two days we fished 7:30cst to midnight off the seawall at Port-A (Aransas) at Roberts Park next to ferry. Caught 22 nice Gaff-topsail catfish and the cleaning station is just behind you. That is some good eating. Last night I think we brought home over a dozen, but yet the clean them. I used cut bait I got from a trash can at cleaning station last night after a guide cleaned several flounder. I just cut rest in chunks. Cut bait is always good. We also sometime use mullet using cast net at boat dock behind or just dead shrimp to start. I had 30# braid snapped off a few times fishing with blue crab the last two night after hooking up. I am thinking maybe big black drum? From Dallas but bought a house in Robstown close to Corpus Christi just to fish.

Yooo, I'm from Freeport, TX!! MOST of the time you'll only catch gafftop out here and maybe some small black tip sharks. Your best bet is to go to surf side beach and fish off the jettys. Most nice fish will be in the rivers or slow spots just off the rivers and streams

Love the t shirt. Haven't checked out other apparel. Love the color to.

Nice job I live here on the South Texas coast myself. I'd rather eat Red fish than any other. They have such a dense meat. Not to fishy. We like to refer to it as the steak of the sea. Love it.
