Modify Hard Baits for Big Fish

Most hard baits have two or three treble hooks. The problem with this setup is large fish and lengthy fights can cause those tiny hooks to open up or tear from a fish’s lip. We all know this loss hurts. The bigger the fish, the worse it hurts and the more likely it is to happen. I came up with a solution for this scenario several years ago while targeting giant tarpon. I adapted my hard baits to use a single large hook. It resulted in the successful landing of more big fish than with the original hardware.Aug 5th, 20250

Getting the Blues

I hope you don’t have the blues. But if you are a trout angler, I do hope you have some blue flies in your boxes. You will be hard pressed to see any blue trout flies in the bins of your local fly shop or in many fly pattern books. This is understandable since so many trout anglers are strict “match the hatch” believers and trout do not feed on any blue prey items. Despite this, blue flies are very effective. Here are a few you should consider.Jul 28th, 20250

Little Brown Bugs: Fly Selection for People Who Can Never Find the Right Fly

Changing flies takes time and if you do it often enough, will chew up enough leader and tippet, that you’ll have to re-rig the whole dang thing.  It’s a slippery slope and not less than a few anglers have spent more time tying knots than they have fishing on a given day.  If you are one of these folks, or maybe a novice angler for whom fly selection is a total mystery, let me suggest a simplified approach. Nov 21st, 2024
