idk if anyone has ever said it but you are the cleanest fisherman ive seen. You can tell you take good care of all your things.

[swimking]

Great video, we always make it a point to leave a spot cleaner than we found it. Always informative and entertaining

[CarlosMedina-ujfu]

I love your videos and I really like how you explain your fishing leader for those of us who are just starting out fishing.

[dpaw]

Way to go. Despise the trash. Complete neglect of our natural resource areas. Thanks for doing that. We do the same on the beach.

I remember back in the 70’s and 80’s my father and I, and occasionally friends, would fish at the Lighted Pier at the end of the dike. Whatever legal catch we would land, we typically opened them up to check for parasites. If we detected a lot of parasites, I mean like spaghetti, we would toss them back into the water, rather than keep them. Drum, Sheephead, Speckle Trout, whatever. More often times than not, occasionally there were families that lived around Texas Ave and 6th Street areas, and we would give them the parasite infested fish. They snatched them up quick. We definitely transformed a lot of local families into happy families for sure. Tackle Time was a big time event back then as well. People would display their proud catches, and sometimes walk over to the Holiday Inn that was at the entrance of Texas City Dike, go to the bar, and get hammered afterwards. I really enjoy your videos. Talk about the memories… 🍺🍺

Been a channel member for along time. Love all your videos. Love what you do. Inspires me to go try but I live 2 hours north of Galveston so I can't make the trip as much as I would like too

[isaiahdominguez]

[kimberlyplayswithkarma]

[ronnstone]

Marine Corps calls it policing up his area, old habits are hard to break! Semper Fi Brother! Happy Birthday Marines, 249th!!

[MicaeArchangel]

Wow Nice Red!! I been to the dike many times no luck only big gafftop. If you haven't done a video on this can you show us how to throw a cast net please and thank you!!

[HogRida]

The bull red run in texas really turns on in November last year in November on the south jetties I caught 35 bull reds in total in the span of like 4 fishing trips

[dannysisson]

How far down on the dike should I go went today for the first time and pretty much got skunked

[humbertogonzalez]

Always enjoy your content . Say Mark, how far is Texas City Dike from where you live ?

[nathanmorkovsky]

Good things will come to those who wait 💪🎣

I caught 15 reds all 23 to 27in a small new marsh area that I found it’s connected to a large marsh but separated by a levy that you have to go around through a shallow water access . The big boats have no chance at getting in there. Absolutely loaded but would not touch any lure I threw at them. So I cast netted finger mullet. I had a popping cork set up already rigged so I hooked them on that setup and it worked phenomenally. First time putting mullet under a popping cork but will definitely be doing it again.

[Southside]

Do you do charters or something like that bcuz my bday is coming up and i was wondering if you do those

[markkar]

Very nice. Nothing like catching three feet of badass, unless it's four feet of seriously badass.

[Tave.]

What oz spider weight do you use on your 9ft rod?

[greglin]

What tool do you have for purging the fish?

[tommccoy]

I’ve been fishing Crystal Beach for a couple of years and I have caught more small sharks this year than I have my entire life.
