Matt-In-A-Yak – this time on a BOAT!
I hit the water with Insider Member Greg Brown and Capt. Mark Brady of Florida Saltwater Flats Fishing Charters.
I’m out of the kayak in this one trying something a little bit different.
After Greg pulled in a few fish, we were able to lock into a tactic and it turned out to be the ticket on this chilly day!!
We found more of the fish we were looking for in murkier areas with dark bottom.
We continued to target oyster bars and rocky structure as we went along.
Suspended twitchbaits ended up being the lure of the day.
After some aggressive pops and twitches, the fish would strike when we paused our lures completely still.
Another factor that contributed to our success was straight reeling to set the hooks without jerking the lure out of the fish’s mouth.
Aggressive hooksets would have led us to lose a bunch of fish.
The biggest surprise of the trip was reeling in a black drum on a spoon – I had never seen that before!!
