Great video for an older guy (68) getting back in to fishing after years away

Restarted fishing after a 30 year hiatus. Back then, my fishing info came from back issues of Saltwater Fishing and Rod&Reel magazines. Today, youtube has bottomless pit of technicals not to mention the myriad of technological advancements being pushed by fishing companies. Luckily, I found your channel with back to basics, no nonsense approach to fishing. It seems I am undergoing a seamless re-entry back to my one true passion. You now got a 64 years old subscriber from the Philippines.

Great video JC !! Years ago I was told by my Old Timer Friend he said sometimes the less jewelry on a rig is better . Thank you again for the video my friend !!

Man thank you, you clarified lots of misconceptions and bad habits learned from the wrong source... when I was a kid fishing was an expensive and frustrating mindless repetitive activity, there was no game; but now I can see through the actual challenge.

Thank you!! Very helpful to a newbie!!! I went fishing today, it had been a while since I'd rigged my line for anything other than the surf at the ocean. Ended up leaving when I lost my rig because I just wasn't sure what to use in shallow salt water. This will be my new go to. love the knocker rig idea!!

The snap swivel and paperclip tricks could be perfect for pier fishing where there's a lot structure. I will try this!

Thank you! I never grew up fishing, but I really want to get into it. I live near the ocean and can go every weekend.

Thanks for posting that buddy, I think it will help a lot of people understanding the importance of weights with your rig. I’ve been doing this for years, and watching the guy catching is the key to success 👍
