What's better than getting a notification of a new Flats Class video.......while you're bingeing Flats Class UA-cam?
CA I guarantee you no one had a better day in the big bend than I did today. I had a slam by lunch and PB'd 3 times on specks. Biggest was 26". I threw mirrodines all day. The broken glass mullet looking one and the gold black back broken glass. You like goldish lures in the sweet tea water and that killed. The big girl came at sunset on a bone topwater. Every hit just about today came on the pause. Twitch twitch pause loaded rod. Outstanding video as usual.
That’s awesome news 🙌🏼
Amazing tutorial! And easy going, easy to understand. Just what my old brain needs! Got all 5 basic colors and I’ll refer back to this video often for a refresh. Thank you so much for your classes Capt!
You recommended the Z-man redbone last year on another video and I have been doing really well with it in Calcasieu Lake (Big Lake) Louisiana. Specs love it when its swam off the bottom.
Going out in the morning Captain for some trout, snook and grouper. Love the Swimming Trout Trick for the gator trout. Also got those GOATS in the mail so I'll be tossing them around. Very nice video.
Awesome info, thanks capt. Really appreciate the advice, invaluable info.
You know it's funny. Here on the Texas coast where the water is gin clear especially in the bays, we like really loud colors like plum/chart and strawberry/white. It's counterintuitive but it works here.
Thanks for the great informative content-Clinical with relaxed atmosphere. 🤙🏻👌🏻
Thanks for the actually useful content! So rare these days! I been wondering why some of my best peacock bass days were on a pink and white deceiver. BTW, I'd throw in a solid black and a solid white. Well done! Now I got to get on the vise and tie some more flies in new colors!
Feedback much appreciated
@@flatsclasscharters Hey Capt. At 14:35 of the episode you said “when it’s bright and clear and I mean no sun” are you still referring to night or did you mean to say no sun? Just thought you were saying earlier that you didn’t need much flake when the sun is out and clear. Just a little confused was wondering if you could clear that up for me please sir? 🤙
Upper tx coast, a white like bone diamond or ivory and chartreuse, a dark color like Texas roach or purple and chartreuse, then a realistic like manfield margarita.
My FAVORITE SHOW AND Capt. Hope to fish with u one day soon.
GOOD SESSION I WILL WATCH AGAIN AND AGAIN
Thanks 🙏🏼
Awesome explanation thank you Capt.
So our job as a fisherman or woman, is deceive fish into thinking the artificial lure that were throwing at them is the real deal , I myself have a hard time pitching fancy colored lures I guess because I was taught that keeping a lure or fly as natural to the real bait was the way to trick the fish into thinking it’s a real live bait , and then other things come into play , the way a bait moves in or on the water , size of the bait or lure , even smell has come into play , and now color , water clarity, water temperature, with so many lures to chose from we all search for the killer lure the quest of the #1 catch all lure , and this is what makes fish’n fun , we all have our old favorites, are go to lures that never fail , and then a new One hits the the market that you just gotta try ! Ahhh here we go again, I now have to confess! IM A LURE ADDICT ! 😩
Great video - great stuff CA
Keep up the good work Captain. I find these informational videos super helpful.
🙌🏼
I just fished the Houdini color over the weekend and it absolutely wrecked the trout. The water was clear but the bottom was sand and grass mix. Great tips capt! Thanks
Thanks for sharing your experience
All Fishes eyes face UPWARD . . Name a Animal that lives in water that looks Down ? So What Fish is looking at the Bottom ? im quessing he will explain. or have his explanation here.
Off topic, is it me or did the Flieder population drop significantly in Martin county?
That’s a UA-cam video for you, how to fish flounder.
Hey Capt CA, what size bait casting rod and reel would you use? I prefer that over spinning gear🙏🏼
What are your thoughts about the water/light conditions for something like electric chicken CA?
Thank you Sensei
I’ve always used natural colors and have done decent. Especially with paddle tail and ned rigs. However, a couple months ago, I had found some good redfish action in a river mouth on a mud flat. I left my usual zmans at home, but I had sexy mullet with me. The water clear but stained. The bottom was muddy with grass and shell on the bottom. Sexy mullet absolutely destroyed the pearl blue glimmer minnow z on back to back days. I was very suprised. Thanks for the tips cap!
Thanks for the feedback
Red headed/hot head mirrodines, corkys, softdines has been a great bait for me. Whether it be a red head on a white silver body, chartreuse head on a black body, or any combination like clown, theyre what its about.
I always use white with my soft baits. Maybe a little grey or chartreuse but always white. I rarely throw treble hook baits in saltwater. For freshwater I use green pumpkin, black, or purple. Great tips.
You have a solid freshwater background... I can tell with those favorite colors of yours!
Very informative video. How would you go about matching color with water column level baits? Any preference soft versus hard baits?
CA, Awesome video. My box is missing several “must have” colors. So appreciative with you sharing your knowledge. Tackle store here I come.
Wooo, it's almost too much info - will have to watch it several times! Thanks Captain!
Dirtier water/bottom/skies, the darker the bait typically.
Clear = light and realistic
Stained = gold or brown
Dirty or low light = dark (purple/black)
Chocolate milk clarity =If it ain’t chartreuse it ain’t no use
Thanks C.A. ! Awesome video, ive watched it 25+ times over the last year. A few months ago I started hand pouring my own paddletails, 5" and 4" and 5" jerkbaits. I've watched this video a TON when I got my molds out and the plastic is melted. There's a TON of home made open pour tutorials and colors for the bass guys, but absolutely nothing for a 95% dedicated inshore guy like me. I may bass fish 3-4 times a year, I inshore fish a few times a week. And I gotta say, you've helped me a ton. I'm a Salt Strong insider member and I found you through them. I use their power prawn lure mostly, and I throw my own jerkbaits and paddletails when I'm not using them. I made a lot of silly colors in the beginning and wasted a few gallons of plastic before I found this video. So thanks again man! You helped me catch good reds snook flounder and even a couple Julie tarpon on lures I made myself, with color guidance from you.

Here's my oversimplification... For soft plastics, new penny and clear gold glitter. For hard baits, something dark, something natural, and white with red head. Now go fish.
Love all your videos. With your K.I.S.S. theory, which paddle Zman color is your kiss color? Kind of your go to for all around if you don't want to keep changing lures. Your favorite color of your zman paddles?
Golden info. Thanks sir.
What is Sodium?
Where is it?
They have an amazing website and ship things out super quick, but the store is in Crystal River Florida.
I fish the Texas coast and do a lot of wade fishing and the occasional boat drift... 1-4 ft of water, lots of sandy/grassy areas and mud bottoms.. Would you throw more soft baits or hard and why?
That is an interesting topic for discussion, soft vs hard and why.
Great info and thanks
What is a that bug bait you showed us? Looked like a hand tied fly.
Ned Bug from @buggsfishing
good stuff
One of the very best videos yet. I went downstairs to check my basement shop to verify that I had the basics covered. Looks like I need more pink. Other than that I’m covered.
Thanks a bunch for this one!
White. Black. Maybe purple for tarpon. That’s all I use.
Great video u are the best u tuber on teaching
Thanks Charles... we try hard here at FCTV
Wish I could be as relaxed as you are in front of a camera. Very informative video!
👍🏼
At 22:32 what is the name of the mullet pattern lure?
Good stuff
Excellent video, will help me choose more wisely! Thanks.
Would you consider SC as stained or muddy?
fantastic video
Thanks!
So far my confidence colors for zman have been . Don't throw mirrolures to often because never know when the right time to throw them is. Soft plastics is all year long and in situations.
1. Bad Shad
2. The Wright Stuff
3. Slam shady / Pearl
4. Rootbeer / Chartreuse
5 is the newest one to break into my top 5 is fried bologna
6. Redfish toad
I'm still messing around with other colors. But haven't got anything on purple demon nor anything black.
You need a green.. try Advocado/Red Flake
try the Pinfish color.
@@lnomolas3427 got that one. Use it in clear water
@@flatsclasscharters just picked up a pack couple weeks ago. It's finally in my bag 😊
👍👍👍💯
If you have clear water with Sun Fish cant see a damn thing. Thats why they seek cover or Shade so they can seeeee.
Like any animal with Pupils the Sun inhibits Visibility.
WHITE.
Stop trying to sell lures
