Great footage Taylor! You had a awesome day. Great to see a Leviathan Rod help get it done! I'm stocking up on some Flexies to fish around that same area soon. What are your favorite "go to" colors?
Another great day and video. Thanks! I am new to the area so this really helps. The flex mullet is the way to go apparently. Two questions, what colors should a rookie stock up on? What skiff are you running? Thx Taylor
Hey Jack! Glad you found the video helpful and welcome to the area. The Flex Mullet is truly a backwater redfish specialist. For our area, I recommend dark colors. The turbid water we have here really contrasts well with darker colors. Lighter colors tend to disappear in the muddiness. Flex Mullet colors that I'd recommend are: 'Bayou Magic', 'Terrebonne Special', 'Dorado', 'Dirty Dorado', 'Chupacabra', and 'Professor P'. Those are all solid colors and will get you good results. My skiff is an Ankona Native SUV 17. They are made in Florida, but I bought mine used from a guy in Rockport, TX. Awesome for skinny water applications. Thanks again for reaching out! Good luck out on the water.
Haha Jerry, those are my secret cuts. JK, but the idea is not so much the exact spot, but, more so the habitat that the spot provides for ambush predators like redfish. I'd recommend going to Google Earth and finding marshy habitat. Then, within the marsh, look for narrow creeks that drain larger ponds or bodies of water. When the tide goes out, the reds will stack up at the mouth of those creeks to feed on baitfish getting pulled out of those back ponds. Hot tip* if the creek mouth has oysters in it, that's this ticket!
That was a super bad ass day on the water catching Reds. Its awesome when you stop and just start watching them.
For sure man! You know it's a good day when you don't feel like you have to catch them anymore. You can just enjoy watching them do their thing!
Great video!
Thanks man!
I expect to see out in the way WAY back on that paddle board for the next video.
Haha I've been researching paddle boards for the next time I see them way back there.
Awesome video!
Thanks! Glad you enjoyed it!

Hey Brandon. Sorry for the delay; however, it seems like you ended up picking some of my go-to colors anyway. Thanks again for the order!

Where about are those cuts
