Wow what a way to end the video Tony, that was nuts lol

[@allenbmooresharinginformation]

The best summary I have heard yet on line management with spinning reels.

[@Saltstrong]

Thanks Allen!

[@JoeSimondsSaltStrong]

Holy smokes this is the best ending of a how-to fishing video ever!!!!

[@AndreasChristouSaltwater]

😂 holy cow bro. I’m convinced that trophy fish practically jump in Tony’s kayak. Your a beast man !

[@andizgarta6773]

Stradic is such a good-looking reel
Great tips, thanks!

[@jimferdyyu2032]

just WOW, monster at the end 😂👍

[@manuelmarquez3827]

Hey Tony You are the Man!
I was enjoying the great quick casting advice and then BAM what an ending. Would have loved to see the fish!

[@paparayfishing2000]

That tarpon blowing that lure up 10 feet from the boat was awsome!! Saltstrong baby!!

[@andrewmorke]

So true about the knot in the shock leader causing a hesitation in the cast and contributing to wind knots. Some spinning reels are more prone to wind knots too. I had a lot of wind knots with the Penn Pursuit II 4000, and noticeably fewer with a Shimano Sedona 4000 and a Spinfisher VI 4500. Not sure why.

AWESOME CATCH

[@MrJr298]

Very nice ending.With that catch.Great!!

[@lovinhouse374]

If you need a spool washer, making one from plastic gallon of water/milk works! Just the right thickness 👍🏻

[@michaeldenny6283]

That was sick. I want to see you land it. Lol

[@saltymojo3277]

I hope Tony shows us his catch on the next video he makes!

[@MsBettydog]

Could you guys do a slow motion of a wind knot? like when the line lays over the top of the spool and then the next cast is when the wind knot happens

[@victorgarza5292]

It doesn’t hurt to cast your line out for the purpose of tightening your line. I cast it out every 12-15 casts to keep it tight. Just work it in quickly with the pole down and the line in the water to give it resistance. Don’t be surprised to get a fish with this maneuver.

[@12ozElephant]

Tony leaving us on a cliffhanger smh lol

[@andrewmoore4362]

Whats the gear you're using

When surface lure fishing you WILL get wind knots. It's the nature of the game when using braid unfortunately.
There's lots of slack and tight line using this type of fishing. The best way to avoid wind knots when using top water lures is to go back to mono line.

[@Saltstrong]

Thanks for the tip!

[@jona5517]

Next video, how not to get spooled by a Tarpon.

[@davidleekalbjr.3035]

Another way to reduce wind knots, is don't use braided line.😆

[@cdbz20]

Wtf show the landing man 😆
