This week we’re at the beach fishing for striped bass. Striper fishing here is dangerous, especially if you are jetty fishing. Striper fishing is one of the big game fish here in the Delaware Indian River Inlet. Sometimes to catch the big ones, you gotta go out on the Jetty but BEWARE. The Jetty has taken countless fishermens lives over the years. The waves come up and surprise you, they will sweep you off of our feet and take you out to sea.
This episode was recorded months ago. And seeing as Brendon has busted his knee up and cannot go fishing, we decided it would be a good time to share this story. Please use this video as a reminder to be safe. No fish is worth your life.

as avid surf fisherman, I 'm REALLY curious to know why you do NOT prefer the VAN STAALS? they are fully sealed and you can fish with the comfort of NEVER HAVING TO SERVICE THEM
🤣🤣
I hate to see mommy and daddy bring the kids for a walk out on that jetty it happens to much
dudes always has a resting bitch face
Imagine being in a war on the Frontline plus surviving the best you can without getting shot and killed. I seen so much death that it does not effect me and I have absolutely no remorse anymore.
I gave up fishing the rocks years ago. I fell one time but I got lucky, all I broke was my rod and got a few scrapes and bruises. You don’t even have to get hurt real bad, If you have waders on and the y fill with water, you’re dead. Those rocks don’t have a lot of give in them.

God always forgives
Man sometimes
Mother nature never
I fell on a Jetty in early April laid upside down while having life threatning injuries for over 30 mins before a friend showed up and dragged me out my ER bill was $23,000 6 MONTHS LATER i'm still hurt and recovering. I stepped on a flat rock and it was like a trap door and catapulted me about 15 feet my whole right side was crushed. I f ii hit my head i would have been killed instantly.I could not shit, smile blow my nose or breath for over a month total nitemare .
My grandfather used to see boats capsize in the inlet. I come here all the time and it can get pretty nasty out there. I typically fish on the patio behind the railing. Really good advice and good job explaining the slippery algae! You don't have to go out to the end to catch fish. Basic safety tips in your video go a long way.
Thank you for sharing this video. I will take it easy the next time I am out there.
Me and group of friend almost lost our life jetty fishing in Massachusetts plum island jetty. Tied came in and took us out to sea just like the guy in the video. We were rescued by the coast guard. I will never do that again. Not worth it.
We understand how dangerous it is but please we don't wanna hear that, we wanna see him fish #godblessher
Its real. Many people died just at the CA beaches this year. The risks are very real.
Here in South Africa the best fishing spots you can get robbed, hijacked, eaten by hippos/crocs/bull sharks or drown 😔
I once fell back of my head first to an asphalt from a scooter. Prolly lead to a concussion but mom insists I'm okay. Terrible headache for like a week. Watching that man fell reminds me of that same pain in the head.
Lol…f*cking idiot..
Indian river inlet Delaware.
Wow crazy stuff real catch there
you make great videos-but this is probly one of the best–always safety first!
LOL 😂
Poor guy
You both looks so cute when Terrified! LOL!!!
Why not wear life jackets and helmets and knee and elbow pads?
Whatever … Yes jetties are dangerous
That wasn't even a very big wave that clipped his legs underneath him. @ 8lbs per gallon it doesn't take much to kill you.
You guys are great, thank you for your videos!
I was there on the other side when that happened
How about yall use your head and not fish on dangerous terrains
Be careful guys just trust god and it gonna protect you
If it's so risky, why even fish there? I'm mostly talking about those men standing at the end of the jetty.
Wow soooooooo crazy😂
Most dangerous jetty ever. Tell your friends to stay away.
New subscriber, before this video, I thought how I should jetty fish. I had no idea the dangers that goes into jetty fishing. Thanks for showing me.
Used to fish the jetty’s at night in the 70s ,I used to wear baseball spikes for traction on the rock and yes it is dangerous,number one rule don’t turn your back on the ocean,but night fishing on the full moon it was worth it ,used to catch 30 pounders.every month,blood worms for bait that I used to dig up that day ,it was all an experience but the fishing was great and I lived to tell my story,that was striper fishing a long time ago.!
Just like what?
Just like that
Phew. Scary. Be safe than sorry.
Oh yes, sometimes one get carried away and next thing you know it, the wave will surely carry you away on slippery rocks.
If you plan on fishing the rocks regularly, invest in a pair of Korkers…..
My dad back 70s caught some over 5 ft….no shit n cailf…
Keep safety first
