Вставка
- Опубліковано 21 гру 2022
- Several cold fronts have significantly dropped water temperatures and forced some unpredictable conditions on us.
But the time is NOW to go out and specifically target huge trophy speckled trout.

The Corky should become part of your arsenal - even if you don't live in Texas!
It can be useful when the fish are chasing mullet to the surface and feeding above them like they are RIGHT NOW.

As a Padre Island fisherman growing up after gold spoons, the Paul Brown Corky was what all the old men used and I was so jealous until I finally came around to top water. A winner on the Jetties and wading just like you did.
Thanks for watching!
I grew up wading the flats in Galveston. Throwing Corkies at night and working coves during the winter.
I moved to Alaska 2 yrs ago and started throwing Corky Devils and Nothings at big silver Coho salmon. And let me tell you right now. It’s just unfair…
Targeting deep slow pools with a true plum or hot pink Corky is one of my favorite ways to get a thump. And nobody up here even has a clue to what I’m doing.
Sounds fun!
I love it
Oh man, outstanding video and enviable. Great guidance on the retrieve and tactics
Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for watching!
Really good video!! Thanks for the info.
Glad it was helpful! Thanks for checking it out!
Thanks for sharing your knowledge.
Tight Lines and Full Limits To Ya. 🎣
Thanks! You too!
I really appreciate the content.
Thanks, we appreciate your support!
Great tutorial!! Have you tried replacing the trebles with in line hooks on a Corky? I have and I think they may hook and hold better but I’m not sure. What do you think? The in lines are easier on me for sure.
Yes sir. You should try the Broken Back Steve Brown. And the Swim Devil by Paul Brown. My go to for sure. Tight lines from Houston Tx.
Beautiful fishing weather. I love the fog levels
Thanks for watching the video!
Great video!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Excelente tutorial . I appreciate your fishing class!!! What kind of boat are you using? Thank you again

Look like you really have her dialed in now brother. I've been a believer in the corky since i watched you land a flounder on one. I'll definitely be trying to head one there in the cooler months to come see you again
Good luck!
In NC we call them Paul Brown Soft Dine XL's and they work! I like the fact that you can bend them and change their action. If you're in Texas you should try some of 3JD Lures. They are also awesome!
They are awesome!
Corkys and soft dines are different. A soft dine xl is an mr27 with the corky soft plastic on it. Wyatt is actually throwing a fat boy. A corky is the original. Texans know these things
Thanks for the great video! I'm a seagar floro user too :) What is the brand of your wading belt - looks very functional.

Man im going trout fising april 19th. Wondering what to use. Curenttly onto some paddletails but would love to know any of your personal preferences this year. Inshore fishing of course.
The Corky Fat Boy TX Chicken caught me my limits every day from last June through Aug. within minutes while people were out all day just watching me cull my catches & they were not hooking up. When they seen that Corky? They were shocked!
I caught my 1st 32" on Spec on the Corky.
If there's Specs in the water? They'll smoke it! 25" plus size Trout all day baby!
Nice!
Been trying to get a plastic lure company to make this. Hollow tube say mullet. Your scent oil slick is half hearted. Consider a hollow mullet or shrimp you can stuff with cotton balls. Now store them SUBMERGED in that scent/oil? See where I'm going with this? 1,000 X more effective. Maybe a bass tube bait with a paddle tail mullet imitation.
Great ideas!!
Cool rod with the tape measurements !
Thanks 👍
Where did you get that rod tape measure?
@@scottbattle4198academy has them
Works all the time around Dauphin Island Alabama. Been using them for years.
Nice!
LOVE THAT LURE💪🏾💗👍🏾🎣😵💯❗️❗️❗️
We do too!
Not corky related but I’m trying to get good with them, I recently purchased nomad design braid, purple, blue, and white. Will this color braid affect my hook up ratio negatively? Thanks in advance, great video!

Five ft floro leader should take care of that 25 lb
Great work Wyatt! Is it true that Speckled Trout are in the same family as Redfish? I hear the big ones start fighting more like reds. Fun stuff...

@Mike Maynard, yes, speckled trout (aka spotted seatrout) are drum family members (Sciaenidae) along with redfish/channel bass, black drum, Atlantic croakers, whitings, and with a number of species also on the West Coast (Pacific).

I've been fishing Paul's Corky's since the 80s.
I'm from- live in Houston
we went and bought them out of Paul's garage for $5 each at lunch from work
That's awesome!
What’s the power and action on that rod brother? Medium fast?
I have tried that lure a few times in southeast ga/northeast fl and it didn’t really produce like I hoped. The L30 is my go to for the big trout in my area.
Sorry to hear that! Let us know how you do next time!
You have to learn to work them
What rod is that, love the measurements.

Thanks for checking it out!
Awesomeness 😁😎
Thanks!
Any good videos from Salt Strong feat the Laguna Madre?
I think everything featuring that area is for our Insiders only and not public. You can check out www.saltstrong.com/fishing-tips/ and use the search if you're looking for something specific.
Its a good winter bait, a favorite trout bait? Not sure about that? The corky did catch the state record Sea Trout back in the 90's! But I think the rebel jumpin minnow the older model before Praco bought them out caught more spotted trout?

If you want that color look up Steve's lures,, he's Paul Browns son,, has every color you could imagine in corkies
Nice!
Yup! Something about Texas and corkies that go together like peanut butter and jelly... making all the out of staters jelly 😂
Ha ha! Thanks for checking out the video!
They work in Chesapeak,Va
Awesome!
Man, when you have one come off, stop the retrieve and let the bait sink then start the retrieve over again. I have caught many big fish doing this. The fish will instinctively think they have wounded the bait and hit it again. I guarantee you they are still looking at the bait. I love fishing the Corky here in SE N. Carolina this time of year. I also prefer the fluoro over the mono because of less stretch and more sensitivity. Thanks for the video!!
Thanks for watching!!
Sorry for trying to tell ya how to fish, I know you know this! Appreciate you guys!!@@Saltstrong
That has always worked for me too with mirrodines.
Yessir!! @@robdishjr4912

dont forget the brokebacks. hard to find at shops
Thanks!
Been throwing these for years and years in North Florida. Not a secret in our area, every bait shop has them.
I'm in Flagler county, can't find em anywhere. The trout have been super tough for me this year
@@sakfpv8444 Taylor county, Wilson's Bait and tackle has them but that's a long way from you. may have to online them from tackle warehouse or something.
Thanks for the feedback!
Corks 💯💪
👍
Do pufferfish ruin those lures? Seems like the soft plastic would get bitten and torn up by them or other tail biters. The puffers and other little stuff are brutal lately in the Chesapeake. I can get Corkies here but I think they might get ruined pretty quickly.
Not as bad as other soft plastics. These Corky lures hold up well to teethy critters
Where can I buy one of these lures?

Any and every baitshop in Texas. They are widely available online now since mirrolure (B and L) bought them out. Theres lots of very cool custom corkys out there too. Coastal marsh, Adam's lures, amd so manymothers do them and sell them online.
@@rainbosprinkles6548 thank you
The “mites” are sea lice, good indication that they’re hugging the bottom along with the pinkish belly.
Thanks for the feedback!
Where is this at?
Baffin Bay
Been fishing them in VA/NC for a few years! Great baits! Check out Steves Lures!
Thanks! Will do!
The fat boy and the soft dine xl both work here in Southeast Georgia coach Richard 👀 😄
I agree. My go to cold weather bait is the soft dine XL with a creepin' slow retrieve with longer psuses.
They do!
and we fished Bingo's, then Mirrowlures before we moved on to Corkys
👍
That's honestly my favorite color of corky, it's called Pistachio.
Thanks for sharing, it is a great one!
We throw it in Virginia. Big Fish Killer 🤙🏾
Thanks for watching!
Is a corky same as a fat boy? Sorry if stupid question.
Corky is name of the lure . Fat boy is different lines of lures
@@TV-nv8qq thanks. I got it now.
Yes
That is not a trout. That fish clearly is _Perciformes_ !
Looks like a more agile version of sea-walleye. 4:04

Hate to break it to ya’ Comrade Akimov, but that fish there is clearly a speckled sea trout. Very common trophy fish in the Gulf of Mexico.
You’re not from Texas! You’re from Carolina! 6:07
This video is from Wyatt, our Texas coach. Let us know if we can help answer any questions!
Odd to see a Texan throwing a corky on spinning tackle.
But it works! Thanks for watching!
The most boring lure to use... But damn it works
Right!
Are you wearing a nose ring?
Nope!
