TEXAS EYE JIGHEAD QUICK HACK! This hack is to help with rigging plastics that aren’t the zman material on these jigheads
Disclaimer: this is a remake video the one I made before had some bad lighting and I wasn’t too happy with it.
Hadn’t said it in a while but it really do be like that sometimes. #fail #saltstrong #finishstrong
Little bit of scripture for y’all. Might make this a Sunday series if y’all want.
Little backstory behind this clip I’ve never had trouble getting video onto my phone from my GoPro and this clip refused to download I fought pretty much all of today making sure this video got downloaded so I could get it on here. Craziest experience cause none of the other clips from this trip had any trouble. Just the one where I spoke God’s word.
Getting hit by a bird while flounder gigging! This was one of the craziest things I’ve ever had happen to me on the water #fyp #flounder #birds #pain #what
Hammerhead Kayaks bullshark flounder lights setup and specs. Lights are Outrigger Outdoors and they’re amazing
P.S. I do plan to paint that awful orange color to match the kayak.
8TH PLACE IN SLAMMAGEDON FULL REPORT LESSONS LEARNED
So it’s 5:00 am by the time we got to our first spot and we noticed a corner that’s usually
heavily populated with boats was empty. So we got extremely lucky with that and we had access to some lights by a dock and saw bait getting blown up on left and right. I started throwing a wake bait because 1 it’s a topwater and 3 it’s a smaller profile and I saw tiny baitfish running and jumping left and right so it matched perfectly. White trout and specks were smacking it left and right either just missing it or hooking up and coming off at the boat. This led to a huge overslot red grabbing it and giving one heck of a fight before I made the horrible mistake to pin my line to my rod to keep him out of the pilings as he kept running towards them. Because of that mistake he snapped the line. Now I should have tightened my drag just a little bit more but I freaked out and let pressure get to me. The key to winning fights like this is to stay calm. The minute you freak out is the minute you make mistakes. Now after that I actually decided to throw the skinny lipper from salt strong and they refused to hit it as it was a bigger profile so I retied a new wake bait on and immediately started getting bites again. Grabbed a small speck and got him back then hooked up to a good 20” red. The bite there died shortly after that so we moved out to spot #2.
Now we covered a whole lot of ground at spot number 2 we were constantly moving trying to locate fish and I ended up picking up a bigger trout, with the wake bait on a grass line, sitting right at 18 1/2 inches. We proceeded to cover more ground with not really any luck except croaker and pin fish trying to grab our lures.
Spot #3 kinda mixes with spot #1 as we worked our way down some jetties back to the dock we fished that morning. With no luck until we reached the corner where I hooked up to a doormat of a flounder and fumbled him really hard. caught him jigging o
Losing my PB flounder on tournament day before measuring him. This was the only flounder I caught this day too #fyp #flounder #pain #suffering
PROJECT GIGGING YAK
First night out on the water with this project was a success despite it not really being a good night for gigging as we just had a bad storm run through the area 6 hours before I went out that disturbed the water clarity a good bit but we still got on a couple.
Sorry got a little excited ignore the amount of fumbles with the net #fishing #fyp #foryou #saltstrong #comedy #comedyreels
Full past weekend trip and report.
This past weekend we were looking at great weather conditions but a weaker moving tide and that definitely played a heavy role in how many fish we caught. Definitely a quality over quantity trip. In total 4 trout 3 of which were 17-18 inches and 1 dink (didn’t get 2 of them on video due to technical difficulties) and 2 flounder one being tiny and the other at 16 1/2 inches. Because there wasn’t a lot of action, this video is more just the clips from what I did catch put together and we’re gonna talk about what worked and why.
Now first thing in the morning with the first clip I noticed a good school of bait near the grass line of this island and saw it getting attacked pretty frequently so I knew I was in the strike zone but I was only getting short strikes or no hits at all. I knew my depth and they refused to commit to a topwater(not shown as it was pretty boring) I knew the slam shady 2.0 was the perfect size because it matched the bait in the area. With all this info I thought let me change my retrieve to a slow lift and glide. That was money immeadiately first cast after that simple change I got thumped and hooked up. That retrieve worked for almost every trout I hooked up to.
Flounder we’re more aggressive and wanted pops off the bottom. Both lures we used were the Salt Strong slam shady 2.0 rigged on a hoss helix weighted hook and the A.M. Fishing golden gringlo rigged on a 1/4 oz trout eye jig head from Eye Strike Fishing.

FULL TRIP VIDEO AND REPORT.
I’ll start off this report by saying it was a skunk trip but I do want to point out why it was and what I could’ve done to secure some fish.
Now this was the morning and day after the full moon and fish feed the most during the full moon and the morning after always sucks for fishing as the fish aren’t really hungry and tend to be more lathargic. Now I did notice the bite seemed to be still turned on somewhat first thing in the morning and from what I heard from others on the water that was the case so I should’ve been on the water before the sun came up and most likely would’ve secured at least 1 or 2 fish. Water clarity was moderate, about 1-2 feet of visibility outside of the marsh and inside the marsh it was dirty barely any visibility didn’t change color really other than the kicker crab but the bites were consistent just constant short strikes and spitting the hook seemed to be the trend as they weren’t too hungry. I really don’t believe it was a lure choice error I do believe it was just that they weren’t hungry due to it being the morning after the full moon.
Now I am a Salt Strong insider member and do full extremely detailed reports in their insider community but I did want to share this trips report and will share future trips reports but the insider community will get the deep dive report thank you if read this far and watched the full video it means a lot to me. See y’all next trips report
Best moment from this trip by far. I don’t think anything beats seeing a tail poking out of the water. I will be doing a report on this trip on what worked, what didn’t, and why. Stay tuned #saltstrong #saltlife #fishing #fyp
