    Replacement arrived!By the way, I did forget to mention that the original lure did have a decent strike however as most anglers will attest you can get a hit th-cam.com/users/postUgkxCbNOWAGmn6nfbCbJDmasvBq7J38KZNw2 and fish will hang on and release lure. I used the replacement lure yesterday and ran thru a Shimano Waxwing, Kastmaster, Bobber (set to sink). I found the does run deep (I casting on the flats 3.5'). Make sure you adjust your rate of retrieve and rod tip angle (up) to prevent getting snagged on bottom. Used it a couple of times and action was very lifelike (looked like local bait fish for trevally), craftsmanship very good....however eyeball fell out. I asked for replacement and it is on it's way! It was very easy to change out treble to single inline hook.

    You have the jig tied on backwards. The heavy side is bottom. No biggie, but will give a better fall if the heavy side is unrestricted from line. Longtime subscriber- great show you put on!

    Have you ever considered a Fell MOB device for your boat. You are out a lot by yourself and trolling leaving the helm. If you fall overboard with out something to kill the engine your boat is gonna ride off into the sunset without you.

      Thanks , and 100%. I fished with Shakespeare Tiger Rod Combos from Wal-Mart most of life, we couldn't ever afford anything more. And I've caught plenty of fish on it. No need to spend a lot of money on tackle. It's not necessary. Everything purchased is really just for fun and the angler, not exactly the fish (unless you get out chasing Blue Marlin)

Last time I went out I had a bit better luck and caught a few bonnethead sharks. I can fish inshore and have caught lots of red fish, trout, and flounder. All this offshore stuff is new to me. Love the content, and the educational info. Thanks from a new offshore fisherman in TX.
