I Tossed This FAKE CRAB on an Offshore Oil Rig and Caught My Dinner

Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль

I used a fake crab lure to catch these tasty fish!!
In this episode I take my Sea-Doo Fish Pro out in search of some inshore fish. I ended up taking my fishing jet ski 4 miles offshore to an old oil rig and dropped down the crank crab lure and instantly began catching some of the tastiest fish around!!

    If you don’t rank mangrove snapper in your “top three” inshore fish to eat I really don’t know what to say. Better than triple tail, flounder and Sheepshead. In my opinion, it’s the top of the top. Easy to catch, fun to catch, easy to clean and it tastes absolutely DELICIOUS!!!! Vey versatile too. Gotta give the Mangs some love.

    Sorry to hear about the house...mine I walked into my basement two weeks ago, which in 15 years has never had a drop of water in it, to find over an inch of standing water. Talk about a kick in the shorts as the reason I was down there was to escort the HVAC guys who are replacing my AC/Heater...so instead of over 10k in expenses...I am gutting my finished basement...fun times. So I completely understand your pain at this moment. Hopefully your YT earnings assist in the repairs. My fishing channel only has 2k subs so it will not be helping at all...hahaha.
