Live Bait Cast Netting

Castnetting Bait. Throwing a cast net for bait in extreme conditions. This is the fall mullet migration in Florida. Jeff has to wade out in about 6 feet of water to get close enough to approach the pod. He gets off a kidney bean cast but it hits a good part of the pod and he gets more than enough bait for the session. These baits will be used to fish for tarpon and snook off the beach with standard live bait fishing combos. 15lb and 20lb combos spooled with mono, and maybe a couple 12lbs with a top shot of braid. 5/0 offset circle hooks, and a 50lb mono leader. This is real beach fishing. The guest angler is Steve Musso, a fly guy that dominates the Caribbean and Central America. THis Reel Guy is featured in many of our videos.
