    @jimbeauxjimenez1850 8 років тому

    Thx Drew. I've heard about casting dark colors at nite but I still don't understand how that could be effective when it is totally dark. Wouldn't the noise/action still be the factor of catching fish in the darkness?

    • @RedfishHunter
      @RedfishHunter  8 років тому +1

      Yeah, noise and action is exactly what they are hitting. At night baits look dark, so its more just for matching the hatch then anything.

  • @IntrepidFisherman
    @IntrepidFisherman 8 років тому

    Great work.. Isn't it funny how a black topwater at night is best?? haha... I can't say I know of a lure that comes with decent hooks. At least not the ones I buy. I almost always change out the hooks after the first use (usually on new style lures I like to see if they are even worth the change out before i do it). Thanks for the detailed info.

  • @douglasnelms3114
    @douglasnelms3114 8 років тому

    Do you have a designated rod and reel for every type of lure you throw? Example-top water, spinner, jig, pop & cork etc...

    • @RedfishHunter
      @RedfishHunter  8 років тому

      Kind of, yeah. I have particular rods that I throw particular lures on to maximize action, cast distance, accuracy, etc.

    On your leader line, do you loop knot straight to the lure or a quick release adapter? Would it make a difference?

    • @RedfishHunter
      @RedfishHunter  8 років тому +1

      If you use a quick clip you wouldn't need to loop knot it, but I don't personally recommend them, and I never use them

  • @allyssautecht2302
    @allyssautecht2302 4 роки тому

    hey I'm pretty late to the video but I have important question. if you have or if you could do you know to the tactical pro angler clips for changing your lure fast, is that okay to use for topwater walking the dog

    • @RedfishHunter
      @RedfishHunter  4 роки тому

      I don't really like those things, and have seen many fail causing lost lures and fish. Some people swear by them and love them, and in theory the ability to quickly change lures is awesome. It's just not for me, I much prefer to tie a loop knot.

    • @RedfishHunter

      I fish all along the Texas coast, mostly Galveston and sometimes down in Corpus area as well. I don't fish the lighthouse lakes very often, but I know at times the fishing can be decent there. Maybe I'll run into you sometime, if you ever see me come say whats up!

    Flouro sinks and will not be good for your action on top waters. You should be using a mono leader or just stay with braid.

    • @RedfishHunter
      @RedfishHunter  8 років тому

      can't tie a loop knot with braid. and only 18" of line doesn't make the line sink. I like flouro for its strength.
