About once every ten years or so we get a run of those big Bluefish down here in the Gulf. I've had a deep sea trip go bust due to rough water and the captain took us in and we caught really giant Bluefish close in near the beach. Saved our trip! Only happens once in a Blue moon though.....not sure why they make the trip, but it's a blast when they do!

I used to catch 7 or 8 pound blues in Sarasota back in the early 90s. Especially in winter.

When blues are running you can literally catch them on anything. We Rip blues in Nantucket every year till our arms can't pull anymore.

It's awesome out there. I hit the big blue blitz on Ocracoke in April and then again a couple days ago on my fall trip, so I know that feeling. I'm glad you had a good time in our neck of the woods, come back anytime!

Love to hear the excitement in your voice during a blitz! Excellent catches!! Stay Safe and Healthy

I truly hope you catch/caught at least one of the 15+ pound Chopper blues Matt. They are a totally different experience. Excited to see you land that better class Spanish! They get bigger! It's been a joy watching you fish my home water. Stay BUMMY 🤜🤛👊

YOU PASSED 100K TODAY!!! Congratulations, Matt, I sure do enjoy your content. I think I joined around the 7k mark. Keep it up man I'm happy for you.

Another great video!! That was a beautiful Smack, in the surf no less! So glad that your week in OBX with Matt has been such an awesome trip. Can’t wait for the next video from this trip!

You DID IT!!! 100k Well deserved….Congratulations. Nice series from the OBX too. Learnt’ me something too with the weakfish catch. I always assumed they were just another name for white/sand trout- kind of like cobia/ling/lemon fish being all the same. Seeing it though you could definitely see the difference. Neat catch!

Dude...I've been subbed for a few years now. You're content and editing is on point brother! Keep on keeping on...and stay bummy!

Nice video. Good times! Isn’t it a blast! I could tell you were having a good time and it put a smile on my face. Bro, please make up your mind though. Your either a surfcaster or not. No stinking piers or boats okay. LOL. On a serious note, now that you’ve fished Hatteras I think you’ll be a hardcore surfcaster and be back to OBX. Congratulations my friend, that Spanish was a Hoss. All you really need is a Sting Silver. A lot of folks favor them in pink &white.

So glad it happened for you Matt! That was a cracking Blue and the Spaniard was immense too! Really enjoying this OBX series. Keep up the great work and thank you for keeping us all entertained! Peace and love from the UK

Thanks for watching!

Outer Banks - probably the best place on earth. Check out Ocracoke Island & Portsmouth Island if you get the opportunity

Nice Spanish. The Bluefish blitzes when I was a kid, and the Striper blitzes in the early aughts were some of the best VA/OBX ever outside drum on the point. Hopefully it'll cycle back if we can get rid of Omega

Love any kind of fishing videos u put out Matt. If it’s fishing I watch it lol

Not bad, my pb blue is 42 inches got a citation for it, I released three more the same day over 36 inches, it was a hell of a day on OBX. So close to that hundred thousand Matt, keep em coming brother, tight lines and God bless 🙌.

Don’t know length, but I caught several that were over 18Lbs. back in the ‘70s. Most fish fight harder, pound-for-pound, when they’re smaller than when they get big. Most fish, but not Bluefish! If anything, the big ones fight even harder!

@@FastEddy1959 you know what's weird, the 42 incher only weighed in at just over 12 pounds, the slightly smaller ones ranged from 12 to 16 lbs.

Really enjoying the change at obx. great vid as always. Never been there looks like a lot of fun.

OBX is a special place on earth.

Loving the OBX series Matt. You guys should travel more often!

Good times BumMeister! 100kkkkkk…..get some …so close! Congrats there BumMeister! Hit that 100k! 💥🔥🤩

The Palmico is a world-class fishery in the fall and Hatteras Island has some great surf fishing around April for big bluefish if they don't stay offshore.

Love it down there! Fishing in Blackbeard's waters.

Good stuff as always brother, that was a stud Spanish! Looking forward to the next OBX vid. Congrats on 100K 🤙

Great video glad you posted keep them coming thanks

Great video! Keep up the good work BBB!

First to comment, that was a huge Spaniard, keep the content coming Matt. going to go visit Ninja tackle now, Tight lines my friend

Awesome video. Looks like you were having fun out here! Thats a nice size catch for sure! Almost at 100k!!!!

Great stuff!!! There are a few schools of big Blues like that in the Destin Marina area often! You could Kayak and fish those inlet docks past Harbor walk and crush the blues with a live bait! A lot of interesting stuff to catch in that area!

Bruh, watching you juggle that bluefish was nerve jangling. You have no idea how easily they can take off a finger, even a cute little blue like that.

So close to 100k great work Matt tight lines you can get there before the end of the year

100k Congratulations! Wooooo!!!

Congrats on 100 thousand.Keep it up

I lived in Nags Head in the 80's. I wish you could have seen the blue fish blitzes back then. I remember 8-10 lb blues beaching themselves around your feet while running bait fish up on the beach. Now I'm landlocked in TN...lol. Glad you are getting into some good fishing while you are there. Love your videos!

My dad talks about big blues chasing speckled trout so hard that the trout were beaching themselves. He says the fishing is still good on the OBX but nothing like it was in the 60's & 70's

Awesome video BamaBB!

We use the small medium for trolling above the wrecks here in Mexico

Pamlico Sound of NC is a beautiful place. Glad you had a chance to visit. Great video as always

Awesome video. Them Blues were on fire .

So pound forvpound Matt what fights harder, Jack Creval or Blues?

Welcome to the OBX! End of September/October always produces big blues and "Bull Reds" 😂 in that area. Caught my PB red (51") a couple years ago off of Ocracoke Island. Tight lines, Beach Bum!

2 times in the Carolina's I've seen the blues so thick in the surf that they bounce off your legs and you just dip you lure in the water to catch one but it's been probably 10 years since then

Blue fish are great eating if you clean em pretty quick!!

How good are those piscifun reels

👌wow superb

North Carolina!!! Pamlico sound will never disappoint! Where you fishing on shore from? Ocracoke is a great little island.
