Fantastic video Capt. Dan. Those are some good sized muttons 👍 I use eel to catch them. Any type eel will work. Cut the head off, skin it and make strips to your desired length. Eel meat is tough and won't come off easily. Got some nice muttons that way. Cheers 🤙

@fungus4758

Жыл бұрын

@@FloridaFishingCouple I catch them incidentally when I am fishing in Antigua. They are also found in the Keys. They like to hang out around structure like reefs (where there are lots of crevices) and tall grassy beds where they can ambush their prey. Most active at night. If you go after them, use 50# line so you can pull them out from the crevices which they like to wrap themselves around. They also like to coil themselves up and make a great bird's nest out of your rigging. The way to stop that is slap them on your floor hard which will stun them momentarily. Then you can go about the process of prepping it for bait strips. The next time I get one, I'll record it and send to you. After cutting the head off, roll the body in dry sand or use a dry cloth (it will leave a slippery mess behind though) to peel the skin off. Fillet, then cut into strips. I usually make 6" - 8" strips and thread it on a 10.0 hook. I use a knocker rig and chicken rig. Sometimes I put some squid for the extra scent. Might as well give em a smörgåsbord 😂

You should always bring your own tape measure - if you know what I mean. 😉

The bottom looked pretty flat with some structure and very hard bottom.

Should Dan or the lovely Elizabeth know of a mid to late 60's fisherwoman who can back up a boat trailer, pole a flats skiff, rebuild some old Evinrude carbs gummed up by ethanol fuel, Tie a few of the more popular saltwater flies and rustle up a decent shrimp scampi from time to time I'd be forever in your debt.

great video! what size hook are you using ? I saw you comment that you give the line more slack once the weight hits the bottom. why is that ?

@FloridaFishingCouple

Жыл бұрын

We used 5/0 circle hooks. The reason for the slack is to ensure the weight stays on the bottom, not bouncing up and down with the waves.

Yes, two guys catching fish, but this is not a how-to by any stretch. We didn't learn WHERE you're doing this other than somewhere in the million square miles of Florida Keys, or what you did with the chum block (depth? how long did you let it sit before dropping lines?), incoming, outgoing tide? what size hooks (J, circle?), what kind of anchor system (so you don't get snagged up and lose everything), are you 25,50,75,100 yards up-current from the target zone or on TOP of the target zone? We've all done what you're doing, but it's the little details that actually make the difference between sitting on a rocking boat all day with nothing, or pulling up 27" Muttons. Please, details.
