Gulf of Mexico Deep Dropping- Tilefish and Barrel Fish - Smith and Son's Charters- Bluefin July 2023

This is the last video from the 36 hour trip. The morning of day 2 we did some deep drop drifts for tilefish and barrel fish. The fish were deep, 1200+ feet but we used electric reels and deep drop rigs to reach them. We had multiple hook ups including a 3 tile drop and a tile barrelfish drop. Those with electric reels shared them with people that did not have them so it turned out to be a fun trip for everyone! To make it easy for you to find the products that I use in my videos, I have become an Amazon affiliate so that I can add links to the products that I use. I do make a commission from each sale, but have hopefully created a one stop shop for you to find everything that you need! If Amazon does not carry the product or the price is crazy, I listed links where you can find them or just listed the names so you can grab them at your local tackle store.
