EASY How to Work a Paul Brown Corky Fatboy - The Basics

Here is an easy way to work a Paul Brown Corky Fatboy! I have explained, as simply as possible, how I start each fishing trip with the Corky. This lure is responsible for countless trophy fish and has also been my go to lure when I'm searching for a true trophy!!

Thanks so much, Capt Caleb, this is hands down the best instructional video on throwing a Corky/Fat Boy I've ever seen, even though you say "there's no (standard) right way or wrong way to throw a Corky", this demo of an excellent and fruitful retrieve for starters and practice in warm season mode until I get the hang of this one. Can't wait to feel the solid thump. I have caught several trout on regular Corkies but put them aside not trusting my retrieve at the time with confidence.
Both lures have that coldwater slow reputation established years ago, to fish it slower than Christmas, "throw it out, take a sip of a Coke, twitch it, and if the lure gets back to you before you finished the Coke, you're fishing it too fast." nonsense. I understand slowing it way down in colder water temps, but this video helps shake that dogma for warmer water.

I have NO idea why RUclips flagged this comment! I just saw it today. Thanks so much for your contribution!

[@DamianT361]

I also appreciate it. Its a highly guarded secret with most anglers. But once you start holding back knowledge and trying to intentionally hide tricks from others, that is when you are no longer challenging yourself to improve.

[@glennfife9546]

Thanks Paul, and Caleb I’m so glad I found you. I’m 66 years young and don’t have a lot of time to learn the Galveston bay system on my own and even though you’re in Matagorda the techniques apply. Thanks.

[@CaptCalebTV]

Welcome aboard!

[@raymondrichards3321]

Thanks Paul! Just bought my first Corky, excited to give it a try. Thanks Capt Caleb for the detail on working it.

[@robertgarcia3717]

Good basic training session. Much appreciated. 😊

[@bluexpress242]

Thx paul Thx for the pointers. Just bought my first one today.

[@LDQBBQ]

Thanks Paul. I fish Aransas Pass. Lots of grass. Since it comes with trebles and it's subsurface, I generally can't throw it much because I'm constantly fouling in the grass. Recently I put 2/0 Owner replacement hooks for topwaters on several of them and I think that will make a big difference in cutting through the grass. I'll definitely fish it more like a topwater now. Thank you.

[@robertomartinezoutdoors]

Thanks Paul! And Caleb!

[@danielbrowne7398]

Thanks Paul!! And you too Caleb

[@NotTodayBud]

That time of year again. Here I am touching up on my technique.

[@adamw8941]

Thanks Paul. And thanks Capt!

[@TrailChaser]

Thanks Paul! Thank you Capt for the video. I've thrown corkies a handful of times over the years, but never had much confidence. That's probably the reason my PB speck is still under 25". Needless to say all my corkys are about to get the oily stuff wiped off and I'm going to start tying them on more often. I've always been a redfish guy, but I'm really wanting to up my game in the trout dept. You're making some great content. You'll be sitting here with 100k subs sooner than later.

[@CaptCalebTV]

Thanks for the kind words! Sure hope you’re right!

[@CajunKahunaOutdoors1]

Thanks Paul! Gunna use this tomorrow morning here in southwest Louisiana. Gunna chase some big trout!

[@Zuvi_Sports_and_Outdoors]

Thanks Paul! Had a heck of a day on the water... Slow bite and no one catching keepers. Pulled out my Corky for the win!

[@mikekotara9189]

Thanks Paul! And thanks Capt Caleb! Great videos. I also enjoy listening to you on the Bite Me podcast with John and Scott.

[@robbozant4487]

Just bought my first Corky and thanks to your video I can’t wait to try it out using that method.

[@connormcclenny809]

Thanks Paul! And thanks Capt. Caleb for all your videos!

[@bobbychan1513]

Made it and thanks Paul. I’ll give corkys hard baits and top waters another try. I’ve only caught fish on plastics.

[@CaptCalebTV]

I had to get in a good bite, put a corky on, and use it to catch fish to build my confidence in it. It’s hard to leave something on when it’s new to you! Been there!

[@TheBenbeyer]

Thanks Paul! Now to finish switching my hooks out to singles and try this lure out on the water!

[@jaimechapa7828]

Great video ! to all of us newcomers, alot of old timers won't give up any pointers

[@guadalupelira8806]

Thank you Paul Brown for this lure

[@oscarmedina-saltwatersanit4152]

Made it to the end Capt. Caleb! A few buddies and I are fishing the Baffin Bay complex in the morning, and you can bet a corky is going to be tied onto the end of my leader line. Tight Lines bud, these informational vids are spot on!

[@todcox9537]

Paul makes an unbelievable bait...Appreciate you showing the ways you make this bait for you! Great clip!

[@jaimegonzalez6628]

I just bought one for the first time; I can't wait to try. Thanks for the tutorial

[@joeRobR19]

[@seacustomtopwaters5794]

Thanks, my boss just gave me a few corkies and ive been wanting to try them, i just didnt know where to start of how to work them. This video cleared up a lot of questions i had

[@jamesmickey2390]

Thanks Capt Caleb and thanks Paul Brown for the Corky!

[@SundayDinners]

Thanks Paul, appreciate you sharing, I love to see the video of the rod action, and lure technique. Appreciate the sharing! Tight Lines

[@MrSymbolic7]

Good video, my best trout on Fat Boy's has been when I stop focusing on what I am doing and start looking around , usually in a kayak and bam you get the thump and I know that she's big , head shake, weight and it's on !

[@CaptCalebTV]

Actually happened to me yesterday when I stopped to talk to a customer. 😂

[@bacaddy65]

Thanks Paul. I have not been able to land a fish on a corky yet. I'll give your method a shot tomorrow.

[@jdbright35]

Thanks Paul. Thank you Capt Caleb for making these video!

[@Elturko1982]

Thanks Paul. Houston tx

[@tonyeddins8205]

[@rickie589]

Awesome lure, Thanks Paul

[@joelgarcia0827]

Thanks Paul, and thanks que capt caleb. Hands down the best tutorial and informative videos. I learn something new every time I watch one of your videos. Always room to learn more. Thanks again

[@luisballin3348]

Thanks Mr. Paul Brown!

[@jakegalindo8834]

Thanks Paul! Capt, thanks for the good videos. The wife is starting to chunk lures and I guess it sounds like I speak French when I try to explain how to work em, your videos help her understand a lot and I’m picking up a lot of new stuff too. Thanks man!

[@bobglassen8243]

Thanks Paul and thanks Caleb. I always learn something when I listen to your videos. Keep up the great work!

[@jtlukeman7710]

Thanks Paul. And Mike @ tx fishing force for directing me to your channel!

[@CaptCalebTV]

We love us some TFF over here!

[@22shoffer]

Thanks, Paul. I am going to try these tips. I feel like I’m a pretty good fisherman, but I can become much better if I get more confident with different Lures for different conditions. Videos like this really help give you the confidence to try out Lures with which you might not be so comfortable. I often hear people talk about how they love their Corkys, and while I’ve caught a few fish on them in the winter time, I have never really felt like it was all that great. I’m going to make a concerted effort to use it more and become a corky thumper like you.

[@Champ--]

Thanks Paul... great video

[@crystall1563]

This is a great video your info is to the bone the real deal

[@rjmrg]

[@captkarter3571]

Thanks Paul and yes buddy jumping that run typically does help because when I was first fish and cookies I would do that right tip up action and Miss lots and lots of fish

[@OutdoorChroniclesPodcast]

Thanks Paul. Great video Caleb. I just shared it with my friend in Needville who just bought a few Corkies.

[@andrewbigham6113]

Thanks Paul... oddly enough the first fish I ever caught on a fat boy was a 32 pound black drum! But I had no clue about bending the lure so this vid will be a huge help and hopefully help get my first monster trout !

[@CaptCalebTV]

Thanks Paul. I’m very new to top water and I’ve heard good things about the PB. I’m definitely gonna give it try.

[@jerrymedlock3650]

Thanks. Nothing is worse than having a new toy and not knowing how to use it. Your tutorial could not have been any clearer. Looking forward to more learning time together!!!!

[@matthewwilkinson9104]

Thanks Paul! Also thanks Caleb for a great instructional video! Keep it up!
