@smokerchokerz :Really? when u catch a fifteen pound king u can talk . And the damn reaso they stuck 2 gaffs in him was so the other didnt pull out! Also you obviosly havent read the comment that says if you have nothing nice to say keep it to yourself.
Holy shit. Never seen so much damn commotion over a fifteen pound king. Frustrating to watch. The first gaff shot was where it was supposed to be. Why didn't yall just lift his ass up with that instead of mutilating the meat all to hell?
either you gaff it bad or not, who cares? the fish will still die..ignore those fckers who brag their gaffing abilities, theyre still born fckers..lol nice catch..
anyways, some people may have asked you this question but ill ask anyway, what bait did you use?
What im trying to say is, how did you get the distance you needed to catch that king. Everybody is telling me that round reels are not the way to go for the pier. I mean how did you cast out a reel like that which is made for just trolling.
We use a zip line affect. We anchor with the tall rods and then slide out bait rod down the line to suspend the bait in the water. When the strike happens, it releases and your off to the races with the fish on the big reels
Another question. Im looking for a sturdy pier rod which can handle kings 60+ or anything else. How did you cast that penn int? isnt it made for trolling?
@XXbigbooneXX These guys don't cast the boat rod and reel they use the two rod pin rig method. Tha rod standing straight up in the rod holder at the beginning of the video is the anchor rod, the international is on the the "fightin' rod" which also has the rig that the live bait is attached to. T anchor rod has a release clip that slides up and down the line.
Nice king! Hey man, I think the point is you landed the fish. Who cares how you got him on deck? Everyone has their own way of fishing, and if you don't fish your own way; then you arn't a real fisherman. All the power to you subculture, keep on rollin'...
Nice king! I think all these people should lay off you dude, who cares how many gaffs you use. The reality is it doesn't matter. The king ended up on deck and thats what matters. You have a certain way you fish, and everyone needs to get a life who criticizes you for that. Cause if you don't have your own way of fishing, then you arn't a real fisherman! Subculture, nice king.....keep up the good work bud.

Nice king! I think these guys need to lay off you dude, if your fishing and the ol' salts want to gaff that king with 2 gaffs, WHO CARES? The point is th king was landed, there's nothing else to say. All you guys who are criticizing him for this need to get a life, everyone fishes differently, and if you don't fish your own way, you arn't a real fisherman. That, is all I have to say on the matter! SUbculture, keep on rolling bro.......nice king
Guys, bottom line is the fish got on the pier, Regardless how bad or good the gaffing was! Please if you have nothing nice to say, don't say nothing. These guys in the video are friends and this video wasn't and isn't here for people to brag about themselves or down talk the gaffing job at hand. Thank you
gotta love it when u see dumb asses using boat rods on a pier..... this video reminds me of this guy i see all the time shark fishing with a zebco 202 push button & his sons fishin with bass worms on cane poles at the pier...haha.. nice king tho but it looks a lil shy of 20#
@56ACE haha dumbass id like to see what you use to catch kings. if you have even caught one....everyone with a pin rig uses a boat rod. i guarentee if you said that out in the middle of the end of the pier i fish. you would get your ass whipped:)
@doehillkid i caught more kings then u prob even seen n im talkin bout SMOKERS not gonna mention no 10-15lb schoolers... what do i use 2 catch kings pier fishin? it depends what i decide 2 bring out that day. trinidad, speedmasters,newells,accurate,avet,penn 3/0-4/0-6/0 . also got 2 van staals n a few penn 706Z ...n all my shit on 8'-10'ft custom chaos/biscayne/star/lamiglass/crowder ect ect.... me get my ass kicked? bitch plz....i tossed plenty of ppl over 4 talkin shit...
painful to watch. you boys need to come down to the panhandle with true king fisherman. dont know how you salvaged any meat off that fish. nice fish, but no where near 20#. 12# tops.
Great job on the King. I don't think the "Old School" King Fishermen, had the gaffs that are custom made, like we do now. I think it's all in what the Angler wants. If he says 2, stick 2 in him.
I video'd one of my Buddies, landing a 29 lb'er, at surf City Pier, on Topsail Island, in mid July, 2009. Posted here. Check it out.
Dude to the weight of the fish and the stress the monofilament has been through, were only using 30 lb test. So it would be or pull the hooks out due to the weight
There will be some guys out there that will i'm sure and if they don't? Just ask the guys at the counter inside the pier house and im sure they will have one there if need be! Hope ya catch one
my favorite bait is blues greenbacks mullet and menhaden... of course thats because i caught my kings on them this year my biggest was 35lbs 6oz on a finger mullet trying for a spanish... but nice catch...and nice reel is that a international 16s
I agree, but when you have old school guys out there with ya and they still go by old school rules and you fish with them90% of the time 14hrs a day? You just let them do what they want at that point. I've fought that war and lost
well christian thts actually pretty normal sized bait.. and menhaden are the best bait but bluefish are always the runner up.. and great catch i caught the second king off my pier this year 21 sweet lbs. haha it was kinda the first bc the first one wasnt caght by a regular haha.. and bigest so thts pretty cool
yeah we use ballyhoo and cigar minnows if were on a boat. but ive seen some nice kings on bluefish! I havent gone kingfishing on a pier yet but im gonna in about a week :)
Get yourself a slightly larger rod and reel and winch that puppy up. Better yet get yourself a light spinning reel so we can all hear the drag sign instead having to dub in some music. Also my 16 year old 120 pound kid would have stuck that fish in the head and have it over the rail about the same time as the guy was climbing over it.
Nice video, I fish at Surf city Pier on Topsail Island, NC It's almost April. 09 and I'm ready to hear a reel SCREAM!! Good luck to you guys this year.
