    What is the best fishing bait to use in salt water?

    Posted by admin on November 25th, 2011 and filed under Fishing Bait | 7 Comments »

    I’ve heard "thread herring" is the best bait to use here in South Florida. Any suggestions?

    I would listen to Dick & Ingun!

    Although squid is an excellent bait for certain species of fish, it DOES NOT attract many "gamefish".
    In SF if you only use deadbait/squid the average species of fish you will catch are: Whiting, Croaker, Drum, Sheephead, Sailors Choice, small Mangrove Snapper, Sailcats, Saltwater Cats, Toadfish, & various smaller "Pinfish".

    Live Shrimp & Pogey/Menhaden or Finger Mullet is #1 for Spec Trout, Redfish, Flounder, Snook & most "gamefish".

    Don’t be confused with the tag "gamefish". Trout, Reds, Flounder, Snook, Snapper, Etc TASTE great! And most people hope to catch anything that has a "gamefish" tag.

    You should also try fishing some artificial lures. You can cover more water and find "active, feeding, fish" quicker using lures than floating live or dead bait! The Berkley Comp makes great products for saltwater fishing.

    Here’s an example of how to rig-up your rods:

    1 fishing rod would be outfitted with a floating popping cork "rig", which includes: 1/0 circle-hook,18-24" leader of Berkley "Vanish" in 12-14 LB test & a popping cork.

    (Circle hooks are super-easy to use if your a "novice" fisherman because you don’t have to learn the "striking position". You just reel quickly and the circle-hook (90% of the time) will automatically "stick" the fish in the side of the mouth!)

    Rod 2 would be outfitted thus:
    Med-Med Heavey spinning-rod spooled with 12 LB "Vanish". A 1/4-1/2 OZ Chartruese/green Jig tied on with some form of Berkely Grub-body/Mullet Body/Pogey Body attached. (Or Berkley’s Swimming Shrimp lure!)

    "Cast-out" your live Shrimp or Pogey/Finger Mullet rigged rod, and while your waiting for a "bite", be casting your "lure-rigged" rod.

    If you only use squid or dead bait your odds on catching anything big/huge, (and TASTY!), is diminished by 70%! I don’t know 1 pro guide or Charter Capt that uses dead bait all the time!

    Hope this helps ya? Good Luck!

    PS: Thread Herring is called "Menhaden", "Bunker" , or "Pogey" in fishing circles. And "YES" it is a great bait! You need a circular live-well to keep them alive for any extended period of time.

    Making a hand tied weft with bulk hair (and fishing line) ;)

    Posted by admin on November 20th, 2011 and filed under Fishing Line | 25 Comments »

    First of all I want to say that I am so glad that my little video has been of use to so many, and I want to thank you for all the nice comments left. If you have posted a question that I haven’t answered, do send me a message because I probably just missed it.

    I am in no way a pro, I just taught myself how to do it a dull weekend after finding instructions on this website:

    http://www.mhrw.com/weft_technique.html

    For some reason no matter how Itry I can not get this page to show that URL correctly. If it doesn’t work to click it, copy/paste it into your browser and remove the space between the e and the f in the word “weft”.

    I am sorry to say that I can’t make another video. I don’t have access to a camera anymore! Some short answers to questions I often receive:
    When I’m finished, I just cut the pieces from the stool. I weave them in the width that I want them (ie the length I want my individual weft pieces to be for highlights or full hair pieces) and then cut the Fishing Line maybe half an inch longer than the weft. Then I fold the fishingline over and secure it by sewing with regular sewing thread and needle by hand. I sew along the entire weft, just to be sure it stays put. :) I also want to say that fishing line isn’t the best material, but it was something I happened to have at home when I made the video. I now use a strong thread called “grizzly”. it’s basically just extremly strong sewing thread used for sewing buttons etc. It’s thinner than the fishing line and it makes the end bit easier: you just cut the thread a a few inches longer when you’re finished and secure the weft with the same strands that you weave with.

    There’s no special method to wrapping the thread around the stool. I jsut get three strands of my thread, wrap it around and tie.

    This kind of weave doesn’t shed! If you pull on one hair from the weft it is more likely to break than slip out of the weave. Great, isn’t it?
