Equipment I Used On This Trip:
- Rod: 7’6 Slot Machine
- Reel: 2500 Shimano Stradic FL
- Line: 10lb PowerPro
- Leader: 20lb Berkley Vanish Fluorocarbon Leader
- Lure: 4″ Slam Shady Mulligan Paddletail
- Hook: 3/0 Hoss Helix Hook 1/8 oz.
The two fish I ran into in the above footage were on back-to-back casts.
One of them spooked off and the other went straight in to strike my lure.
I was using the Slam Shady Mulligan rigged on a 3/0 Hoss Helix Hook weighing 1/8 oz.
Also, I had the typical 10lb PowerPro braid tipped with 20lb Berkley Vanish Fluorocarbon Leader.
All of this was rigged on the Salt Strong Slot Machine Custom Rod and that was paired with a Shimano Stradic FL 2500.
The first fish is the fish that spooked off.
I initially wasn’t sure which direction the fish was facing and accidentally threw my lure directly behind the fish which caused it to dart off in the opposite direction.
You definitely DO NOT want to cast behind a fish because the second they are startled or surprised by something behind them, odds are they’re going to race off and out of there.
However, on the next fish, I was able to see which direction the fish was facing and make an accurate cast.
Without hesitation, the fish jumped forwards and pounced on the lure.
Do you want to catch fish like this – consistently?!?!

Delt with this today. They darted off when my lures moved. The one I hooked up on I just let it sink and didn’t move it. Will remember this advice for sure.
Often times its the line twitching/moving in the water that can spook them as well.
The worst is when a big red is heading in the opposite direction of your kayak and you have to cast behind you! Hate when that happens.
Haha happens all the time!
