Y’all give up shrimp and crabbing spots too?

Easiest way? Bring the kids and offer them ice cream for a bucket full.👍

Super helpful, Man. Keeps me from buying a rake that I may use three times a year. God bless, Stay safe, Tight lines! - Hedge

Very good video on how its done..now show us how you are suppose to put them on the hook😉😁🕊🙏

This was my life as a kid!! Now I got kids to get the bait lol

Great video, thank you for the quick tip that was new to me!

Wow, absolutely great job man. I was actually able to see them with yr video for (my) first time. I can't wait to try it.

Thanks! I've never owned a sand flea rake. Always caught them with my hands.

That works!

I live this video and will give it a try this weekend. Thanks for sharing.

Cool! Watching in the car heading up to do some beach fishin in Sarasota! Tight lines!

Nice tip - so much for the rake

As noted below, I used to see them all the time in Jax, but almost never anymore. Is this the prime time of year to get them? My friend has a beach house where I've caught tons of pompano and whiting on shrimp. Sand fleas would absolutely kill! Great video!

Never been able to catch on west coast in gulf only on east coast. Are they around here on the beaches? Thanks for video

Awesome!

Maybe I have not thought this all the way through, but wouldn't it be easier to put them in a strainer rather than on a lid? Then run water through the strainer. All you have left would be the sand fleas.

I was thinking a bucket with holes drilled in it.

Wyatt, Are in NC? I haven't seen any sand fleas here in Brunswick County in yrs. Used to see them all of the time. I'm sure they are still here, I've not looked at the right time.

you just gotta find the right beach. when i went to Oregon I was suprised by how each individual beach I visited differed from each other

Is this what's biting is on the beach, cause we don't see um? Or are they really no see ums?

I will use this tommorow when i go to the beach

Best way I’ve found to collect them is to use a spaghetti strainer. You can get a ton in one go and it rinses all the sand off

Lol, blows my mind that he didn't figure that out already

Great video. Why are the questions not being answered.

This is great! Except that I was just at Moss Landing Beach and while I did see a lot of holes, I didn't see concentrated spots like what you found. It was right at high tide though, if I'd waited an hour I might have found them. If it is this easy I don't need the rake!

At 0:11 were this little patches past it sand fleas too? I’m confused on what you mean V’s???

@lukester102d6

2 жыл бұрын

The V’s are the shape of the antenna when they poke out of the sand after a wave comes by.

All I do is look for their antennas when the water is going back then I dig one up

How do I download the Salt Strong song?

That sand crab is so small, but I like it

A plastic garden scoop with holes in it work great.

I live in St. Petersburg FL. Anyone know of a good spot in my area to take for sand fleas?

I put Sand on my hands and I out the sand flea on top of the sand on my hand it started to bury down and it tickles my hand

That’s like a Pinterest idea..”Why didn’t I ever think of that”😃😃😃😃😃..I’m doing that. Now, I’m thinking “hmmm”, fiddler crabs or sand fleas for Sheepshead?

They don’t bite ?

I’m at a beach we’re there is a ton of shells so it’s hard to tell for me

Even better with one of those plastic sifters that come with sand toys

There is, without question, a huge problem with sand fleas all across the African continent; people who go barefoot (which is just about everyone) have these things burrowing into their skin, on their feet ... and it causes horrible sores and what not ..... but .... these things are big enough that, .... how can you miss them? .... idk Y they're so seemingly unavoidable all over Africa .....

have you played on a beach with them before? I have lol, best time ever. they're very sneaky little guys. I wouldn't notice they were on me until i felt a pain on my foot, and sometimes theyre under the sand and when i lift my foot there's many of em. they're scavengers, eating any organic stuff they find on the beach. so they like to nibble on our toes.

after some research I found that the jigger flea causing the disease you mentioned is also sometimes called the sand flea. jiggers are tiny and live in the soil, and many houses have dirt floors. I hope this helps

In South East Asia, we use motorcycle baskets.
