    I've started a new business about two months in now... Basic Needs Mobile shop.
    We do bait and tackle, first aid, marine and hunting safety items, and much more. As I said, it's a mobile business, I can pull around to various local lakes and river landings and set up in about 2 minutes. Ready to help fishermen with what they couldn't find or forgot. I have live bait, and working on a better system for having live minnows and herring in the mobile shop. The biggest issue so far has been getting Wholesalers to give me a shot without those high priced minimum orders for such a small business.

    I remember the first time I see your first video and heard your Salt Strong theme song and felt that God was telling me to subscribe to you immediately. I totally believed that the "Why" is important in getting you up early in the morning. I really hope you teach how to fish freshwater soon and even team up with other UA-camrs as fun teaching sessions.

It's "Running Lean" by Ash Maurya. It may have helped y'all save a few of those early dollars in savings LOL. Keep up the good work.

    I never thought of you guys as just apparel Salt Strong but definitely as a Teacher if what is involved in every aspect of fishing including the most important knots but this video is a Big eye opener because all I do is make excuses for not doing what would make me happier or even make a UA-cam video just to see what would happen? I’m one of those shoulda coulda woulda if I only made that first step ! Well enjoy your success and continue teaching to the Fishing community

    Great video. I am think of starting an offshore charter business here in Texas at South Padre Island. The The CHG and RCG permits to do so are fairly expensive. Apparently they stopped issuing them in 2003. As a result, few vessels have these permits here. Do you think it is a good investment in terms of being able to offer offshore charters? Seems like I would have a lot less competion. Just wanted to get your thoughts.

    • @offroaddegenerates3634

      South Padre will have tons of competition. They have tons of Charters and guides already set up at every pier/ restaurant.

    You guys should build "private salt strong boat launches" in your prime insider locations. Make it a perk for joining... That would be really cool.. you could have a lobby with all the salt strong inside info about that area, small salt strong shop inside that sells your lures and gear.... That would give you a solid connection with your insiders, so many people would want to have access to that

    Now I see how you do it. I responded to your "FREE" offer for hooks,just pay s&h. So I get to the pay part,find out the three hooks actually cost $3.95 shipping. You could get five packs for like $20 shipping. The real shipping for five small packs of hooks,maybe a dollar. Really? I unsubscribed.

    • @jejoko
