    Bro and that's bigger than 41.5" My guess is 43". You should've measured it using a piece of leader! Then measure the length of leader when you get back in!

      I completely agree.

      Or put it up against your rod and give it a tiny mark or scratch in the rod to measure at home

    You will never regret getting a taco. My old 2007 taco is at 284k miles and still runs like the day I drove it off the lot. I LOVE my truck. Ive abused it more than I should’ve so many times and it has never failed or complained.

    Great video brother I like the two day Sesh videos very action packed as far as new videos. I would definitely like to see some more tarpon videos backwater on artificial, And as far as new boats, I had a 15,4 classic, which I love that got me in very very skinny water but I upgraded to the super 16 and it’s night and day game changer way more versatile but still being able to lift the motor up and use the trolling motor for shallow back waters! Anyways, keep up the entertainment you probably got some of the best backwater inshore videos popping out right now!🙏

My boat has went on to better waters and I’m now having to shore fish,any advice on where I might go to catch snook, reds, trout from bank, shoreline, bridges maybe. Really enjoy your approach to fishing and I could easily be your father, respect and safe thoughts to him on his last tour. Any help would be appreciated. Keep Them Rods Bent!

    You have a great following and a great platform for reaching your audience. PLEASE do some research on proper handling of snook, adopt those practices and share it with your community. You might think a gentle grasp by the lower protrusion of the mouth is okay, but just because the fish swims off doesn’t mean the damage hasn’t been done. This is offered as constructive feedback, I hope that it’s taken as such. Tight lines.
