merry Christmas from Philippines..
Going after winter time trout is as Texas as wade fishing, corkys, brisket, and buccees.
Thanks for the info Cap. CA, I was wondering if you are able to share which color code that "Gringo" is... I am having a hard time finding it on Mirrolure site. Thanks again buddy, love the channel.
Gringo is considered a custom color. In Texas we get a lot of regional specific stuff that's spreading out now. The Jay Watkins Double D, Custom Corkys, Custom softdines and XLs....
Gringo is really just white. Hence the name Gringo. The Double D gets worked differently than a typical 17 or 27 mr.. They slow float, not sink and are used as a 0-1 foot subsurface walker/twitch.
Recently I got the Skinny Lipper and the Moonwalker from Salt Strong and they've got single inline hooks. I haven't had any bites on the Skinny Lipper yet and just got the Moonwalker last night. I plan on trying them around the bridges for stripers in the Chesapeake and maybe a redfish or trout will hit them too. The single inline hook thing is new to me but I hope they work out because they've got to be better for fish I want to release.
The inline hooks will work it’s just about adjusting to the thicker wire hooks and the fewer points of contact to the fish (2 points instead of 6 points). But better on the fish overall. Another suggestion would be to bend down the barbs on your treble hooks… it works very well and the fish have an easier release.
Wheels turning in my head, see no reason why this wouldn’t work for freshwater bass fishing.
I was literally just thinking that same thing my friend 😅!
What color are you thinking? I’m in Florida,SWFL….
Yes it will work for bass for sure!
They definitely work. really like the skins series in particular as well. And the double d is also really killer for bass. Think a floating jerk bait but with a wider flash. Speaking from experience you’ll get a lot of strange looks throwing them from the bass guys lol
C. a. I have been using the Triple Grip an like them. I will now plan to try the BKK. Take care
Wow, talk about dialing it in for trout. Thank you for the knowledge.
Great channel. Learn tons about fishing. Roy’s Bait and Tackle in Corpus Christi, Texas offers tons of custom Corkies, Double D’s and their custom Down South paddle tails are amazing.
HACK: Hook Saver If you guys are using the Mustads as the Capt suggests many do just drop them in some diluted Salts Gone and rinse when you get home.. I do it with all of my gear..
Good info right there!
C.A
what’s your preferred flouro line for spinning reals?
Yesterday while fishing both my Flouro reels screwed be over sorta speak..
Pat- you will find 10lb or lighter fluoro works best on spinning gear. Also do not fill spool to lip like you do with braid. Leave about 3/16” of spool lip showing… that should mitigate problems
The videos you made in Wilmington nc? Where can I watch those at? On your channel? That’s where I live
Thats an episode that will drop on our channel next season on Waypoint TV and our UA-cam channel in April
Goog stuff and will give it a try, CA!
luv BKK, i use nothing else n change out all my trebles. 10 bucks, cheap. exact same treble in Australia anywhere from 15 to 20 bucks CA. the BKKs i use for barra n murray cod r 1/0s n #1 fangs on my jackall swimbaits. anywhere from 20 to 30 bucks. there worth it for me.
Good to know Stephen
Where's the video of them 40 " strippa's
😂
Thank you CA for answering my question. It makes perfect sense now why not inline singles all the time. You da man!
C.A could you touch on adding stick on adhesive lead to hard baits. I’ve played with the 27 adding stick on weights to increase sink rate when the 28 sinks a little to fast. Still trying to figure out best placement of the weights but I’ve also heard bass guys wrapping soldering wire to the hook shanks too
It’s a good subject for a video… we will work on one this winter
I’ve recently swapped all my mirrodine treble hooks to inline singles due to losing too many trout on the stock trebles when they pull or straighten out. I am usually throwing mirrodines in water 10-20’ so not worried about sinking too fast. Do you agree with using strictly in-line singles for big specks in deep water?
Colby- you may have to lighten the tip action on your rods if you’re bending out trebles. Moderate Fast tips work good for treble hook lures… good question
Merry Christmas old timer, may you experience an upcoming year without backlashes. Any BFS stuff coming up, does Fitzgerald make a BFS rod?
Merry Christmas to you to Henry. Maybe a BFS offering in the Bryan Thrift series at Fitzgerald Rods
You said to use fluorocarbon Leader especially this time of the year. However, you didn't indicate why?
I've seen underwater video of trout being caught on Salt Strong with 20 pound blue Seaguar and it looked on the video like it was a piece of rope! Still not sure about underwater visibility comparing mono versus fluorocarbon. Thanks.
Higher quality fluorocarbon is for sure less visible than monofilament leader
Very helpful. Thank you.
Will #2 BKK work with the 17MR for the same technique?
#6 size for the 17MR
Good info bro
Thx. What do you think of Copilymer line..IE 10 lb leader in winter?
I still like CoPoly lines for speckled trout fishing in pressured clear water fisheries or topwater
@@flatsclasscharters thanks!
Good tip Cap. What size hook are those replacements? No. 6?
#4 on Mirrodine XL
Thanks!!!
A most excellent instructional vid, thank you for this gift!
I going to do the same thing with some Softdine XL.
