- Bring the big baits back out RT @SportFishingMag: QUESTION OF THE DAY: As the weather changes, what's changing in your tackle box? #
- Notes from SWS seminar: put large hookless swimming plug in front of dredge to keep the dredge below the surface. #
- 130 Jinkai smoke blue leader for tuna with 7766. #
- Notes from SWS seminar: rig hooks on wire with more haywire twists to get hook farther back in Bally for short striking wahoo. #
- Notes from SWS seminar: one poorly rigged Bally can ruin your whole spread. Watch baits closely and eliminate the un-natural. #
- Notes from SWS seminar: chum for cobia west side of bay early June. 4 rods, 2 live eels, 2 cut bunker right behind chum bucket. #
- Notes from SWS seminar: start fishing for big red drum in VA in mid-April in the breakers by fishermans island. #
- Notes from SWS seminar: reduce trash fish by-catch when drum fishing by using live hard crabs with the sharp points trimmed off on a 9/0. #
- Notes from SWS seminar: Black drum fishing heats up around mothers day. Fish mussel beds on east side. Fish the hard tide change on shoals. #
- Notes from SWS seminar: use bigger jigs to catch amberjack at the towers. I am looking forward to trying this over the summer. #
- Notes from SWS seminar: circle hooks work well on flutter and knife jigs. Just don't jerk the hook set. #
- Notes from SWS seminar: has braided line replaced wire for flounder fishing? Possibly. Thin diameter, no stretch, high strength. #
- Notes from SWS seminar: Don't ignore shallow water for flounder. Look for structure, current and good bottom. Check ocean wrecks in winter. #
- Notes from SWS seminar: Not a lot of new developments in rockfishing. Eels work. Fish tide changes. Hang 'em high. #
- Notes from SWS seminar: March & April fish the light lines at the HRBT for trophy rockfish. Cast light lures or flies to fish. #
- Notes from SWS seminar: gradual slope, 50 fathoms, half moon phase are great for blueline tilefish. #
- Notes from SWS seminar: winter may be the peak of the tile fishing season, if you can stand the cold. #
- Notes from SWS seminar: for speckled trout – fish your bait so slow it hurts. #
- Notes from SWS seminar: white marlin fishing is all about dredges. Strip teasers, mullet dredges and decoys. #
- Notes from SWS seminar: John Oughton says skipping Bally are great for white marlin. Let 'em skip and take a lot of wide turns. #
- Notes from SWS seminar: daytime swordfishing is coming to a to a canyon near you. Florida techniques are moving north. #
