TBH I only fished when the wife and girls were sleeping or doing something else. I had too much fun at the beach, the boardwalks and pool with beverages to sit there watching bait all day! There were some great moments where my wife was netting them and even saved my Plusinno from getting dragged off the dock lol!

Looks like a beautiful place to vacation. I hope you and your family enjoyed yourselves. Those fish were hilarious with the squeaking sounds. 😂

Hey pal if you make it back to The Cape try to stay as close to the mouth of the river or ocean as you can. Also try to keep your bait off the bottom you wont catch as many catfish. I found my best luck in the canals was at night with cut bait and in the morning until about noon with shrimp. I down sized my tackle the last time I was there almost like I was fishing for panfish and it seemed to produce more fish. There are a lot of different fish in there you just have to find them. April seems to be a good time to fish there. Great content keep it up.

Thanks so much for the advice and the kind words. Where we stayed was the first canal in from the inlet at the mouth of the river by that Jaycee Park. I wish we could get down there earlier in the season, I know July isn’t ideal for sure. Solid advice tho and I’ll definitely follow up on those tips next year - tight lines!

Was hoping to see a bit of fishing from you down there. Knowing the tide schedule is essential when fishing areas like that, but you did a great job. Hope you all had a blast. (On another note, might want to go over your description, I'm sure its not what you meant :) )

@live2fishofficial

Жыл бұрын

I’m not familiar enough with the area to tell you what it could be, but if you’re in a salt water canal the levels have been low with the tide in the morning and evening. The freshwater canals are even lower and I don’t know if you’d get anything on the shrimp. The bites came for me came best between 5am-9am and was shut down again until 7pm-9pm. Night fishing produced nothing for me as did daytime. I’m really shocked you aren’t getting anything on the live shrimp. I was told I’d do okay on the frozen, which I caught about a dozen, but live was suggested for better bites. I never got the live because the dead ones worked fine. I got those at Walmart for about $3. The crabs were definitely an issue tho. When I wasn’t casting the shrimp off those small hooks, the crab were stealing them.
