VIDEO: Superb pier fishing action

We go to the United States today for some excellent pier fishing action.

I suspect these guys will struggle with bigger fish.


That is quite a lift needed to get the fish up on the pier.


It looks like a great place for those not all that skilled at casting and feeling a bite in rougher waters.


These guys simply drop, watch and strike.


They end up catching both amberjack and grouper.


The fish are returned live, but I suspect could have been handled more carefully.


It is often a good idea to wet your hands before handling the fish and to place it on a wet surface to avoid removing too much of the protective slime on their bodies. It is also wise to avoid putting too many fingers into the gills.


Note - One or two bits of bad language on this footage.
