A pleasure being out with ya again. Having Barnacle jump in after the fish certainly added another dimension to tarpon fishing. Both Shamus and I jumped some silver today too but another bust for Noles. Bait chuckin just ain't his gig. Since I suck at bait chuckin, I've been working on my photograp...

A combo change is in order.

Don't make me kick you in your ankles!

Mission - Sight casting for Redfish with the buggy whip.

Something for you to remember the rod & reel by:

Manning has been the beach as much as I have this season. I have witness him jump more fish than anyone this season. The scenario is always the same...fish hits, fish jumps, fish goes bye-bye! I started calling him "Jumping Steve" because of his gift of jumping fish. Well today was his day...

I have a 5wt blank that I can put together for a deal. It's a Tiger Eye blank.

That's a better excuse than "I gotta work on my deck during tarpon season!"

I was hanging back so that I got the whole thing in my viewfinder! Don't make me tell my M.I.L. you're poking fun at me. I'll have her yank your trip to Kansas.

We might could use an NSFW advisory on this one - fortunately my finger was near the "mute" button...

sorry about that!

trimmed 2 minutes of the video, so here's your 14 minutes of frame Rik.

It's unedited so enjoy...

There's no fancy music or animation for the video. It's unedited and 15 minutes long. The time it took Rik to land it.

From my personal experience, the DOA baitbuster is very effective. They have a tendency to "helicopter" if you make your loop knot to big. I've used the natural looking color combinations: black/silver, greenback/silver. I've also experimented with a bucktail (spro) jig and 6" Gulp je...

Very nice! I like the color selection! Go NOLES!!!!
