Wonderful video Drew. How about discussing what size jig heads to use in certain depth/conditions and how to tell what tide we are in once in the water. Thx for sharing.
thanks for the walk through on color selection. I live in Corpus and fish the upper/lower Lagoona, Nueces Bay, Oso, and Port A/Aransas pass regularly And I have been struggling to land good size fish on soft plastic. thanks again.
+Texas Redfish Hunter honestly brotha no one else will give exact color or kind of lure, i fish from S.P.I up to the Arroyo Colorado and the water goes from blue to darkish green real quick
I've had some Egret's in that 'chicken on a chain' color tacked to my wall for a few months now while I finish off a bag of Cocahoe in a similar color. It wasn't until two nights ago that, after briefly passing my flashlight over them, that they actually glow in the dark. Blew my mind, given the number of times I've fallen asleep with them mere feet from my face.
I can second the chicken on a chain color. Got that idea from drew. I was using live shrimp catching nothing. I switched to chicken on a chain with chartreuse tail...BAM! Trout bite was ON!!
Thanks for the videos man..I'm gonna give coast fishing one more go this weekend and I'm really hoping to catch something, been watching your videos for 2 days now lol.
Really great video. Enjoy all your videos. Thanks. I agree with the other subscriber. Would love to see a companion video on what size jig heads to use. Thanks.
Go for paddle tail soft lures. Literally just a slow retrieve is enough to excite trout and reds. The pop, pop, reel, pop pop reel method is good for soft baits without paddle tails
Thanks for the video. Just started saltwater fishing and caught my first Redfish on a Bass Assassin Morning Glory. This will definitely help me when purchasing new soft plastics. Watched another video where you keep Gulp baits in a HEB container. Do you keep other brands of soft plastics in the Gulp juice or only Gulp products? Just curious and trying to learn. Thanks in advance for your response.
I see chicken on a chain in the salt assassin brand, but it looks darker than the one you showed. May have been the lighting. Is that the right color? Looking for a cloudy day/stained water Color and what you described sounds like the right one.
Great Video I just recently started fishing the coast around corpus. This was really helpful. Don't have a boat just fishing the piers & jetties. Any recommendations on what rod & line you recommend.
hey buddy. , months ago , we caught up with some guys that had a bull red each, and they used the root beer gold with chartreuse tail. the 4 inch. have you used those before ? the new penny are similar but I think they are lighter than root beer gold .
Nice video, I fish a bayou very similar to what I see on your channel. I've used every thing and every color, but for some reason they never go for it. Any ideas on What i should do?
I enjoy all your videos pretty cool tips! Have you ever thrown Slayer lures? My bag is full of Slayer and down south. Whats your opinion on Slayer lures?
Dunno if you guts have tried Crazy Baits? Ive been using their Nano Minnows. Got every color and size under the sun. And only $3 for 12! I left my bait at home and couldnt be arsed to go back home. Saw these and thought hmmm cheap shit lol But I tell ya I'd hold them upto Gulp! And no Ive not got any connection to them lol Just an idea.
I watched some of your videos before going fishing down in Rockport this past weekend, I wanted to give lures a try so I picked up some doa shrimp, I had some good hits with this under a popping cork. My only issue was when we stayed on shore and the wind was blowing in. Any help on this, or tips? Thanks
Thanks Drew! When you run Gulp shrimp under a popping cork, do you use a jig head or a non-weighted hook? And on your tandem rigs, are both your jig heads the same weight?
It depends on if I want my gulp to fall faster or have a slow drop in the water. Usually I use a weighted jig head. On tandem rigs the bottom one is weighted and the top one is not
+Texas Redfish Hunter That's a good idea for the tandem rig, I'll have to try that this weekend if the weather cooperates! Thanks again for making these videos! It's very good of you to share your hard earned knowledge and experience with us googans - lol!
Not to long ago I made my transition from bait to lures. I'm constantly changing lures till I find what works during the conditions I'm fishing. One thing I am having a problem with, is trying to figure out what separates stained water from dark water? Let's say... during day fishing whether sky is cloudy or sunny. Any suggestions on what's considered stained water?
+Texas Redfish Hunter so in non clear water, how much visibility distance do you normally give it for you to consider it dirty or stained water? I guess that's what I was trying to ask in my original question.
over here in florida we had the massive algae bloom. what colors would you recommend for like 5 inches of visibility? the rootbeer/chartruce? people told me the glow kind works. any thoughts?
thanks man, was going to get into saltwater hard this year but after the algae bloom i kinda gave up until just recently. going to get back out there as much as possible and need any help i can get. love the videos
Texas Redfish Hunter OK THANKS BRO cause I never use lures much only top water since it's pretty dang fun but I've been wanting to try soft plastics so thanks for the info :)
OK. I just bought a bunch on sale. Haha. I hope it works out. Any particular reason why you're not a fan? Just curious. Is it the action, the plastic they use, don't like their advertisements, etc. Thanks, great vids and I'm gonna subscribe.
I went fishing today. I followed the color advice from the video, and I quickly filled my limit of trout. However after 9 am. I couldn't get anything to bite anymore, i tried different lures and nothing :(
Thanks for the videos man..I'm gonna give coast fishing one more go this weekend and I'm really hoping to catch something, been watching your videos for 2 days now lol.
I killed it Drew..thanks for all the fishing tips and set up videos you put out..I bought every lure in this video and they kicked butt, finally have my rod set up right with braid and flourocarbon and learned to tie an FG knot and man it's super sensitive now..thanks again! #FISHON
Wonderful video Drew. How about discussing what size jig heads to use in certain depth/conditions and how to tell what tide we are in once in the water. Thx for sharing.
good video idea!
Been having trouble catching fish because I didn't have a clue on what color to use thanks and good video
Great Video ! Thanks for the color info
Drew great video. Just what the newbies like me need. Excellent
RS Marett thanks
man, really appreciate the advices on lures. This is the info I look for, thanks bro...Tight lines never stop!

subscribed, you gave the exact info ive been looking for that no other channel will give
sweet, that's what I'm trying to do!

I would like to see a video on how to use and retrieve the popping bobber. Thank you and thank you for all this great information.
Being in very close proximity to Galveston & Freeport, most of my soft plastics are Dark Purple with Green Glitter, and Black with Red Glitter.
Great advice! Thanks
i really wanted to buy a black and yellow soft plastic bait, its very murky in South Padre. Thanks for the tips.
i use all the brand u talked about
Do a video on wadeing spots that u like to go
Great job! So, my question is: Southern shad or super model? What size should I use?
Nice selection
One day... I'm hoping to graduate from live shrimps and actually catch something on a lure (soft or not)...
just gotta make the jump!
Go for paddle tail soft lures. Literally just a slow retrieve is enough to excite trout and reds. The pop, pop, reel, pop pop reel method is good for soft baits without paddle tails
I’ve also had redfish just pick gulp up while it’s sitting there. Caught a 35in red on a white gulp shrimp free lined under a Cajun thunder
Just subscribed.Thanks for the informative video.
Thanks! very imformative

Do you throw the fully chartreuse with the ribbon tail in clear water?
hey buddy. , months ago , we caught up with some guys that had a bull red each, and they used the root beer gold with chartreuse tail. the 4 inch. have you used those before ? the new penny are similar but I think they are lighter than root beer gold .
Nice video, my question is what weight jigheads do I use for certain slow to moderate currents? Thanks.
Great video
Nice video, I fish a bayou very similar to what I see on your channel. I've used every thing and every color, but for some reason they never go for it. Any ideas on What i should do?
Can you comment on when to use glow? I figured at night but seems that you're saying to throw dark/almost black bait. Thanks!
Hey man good video.
What color do you think would be best for inshore sailfish here in Texas? Thanks.
Solid Gold works best, like 24 kt or it won't work at all
lmao
remember them have a lot of mercury content in them
Them do
Hotdog colored lures
When to throw Top water or submerged or on bottom??
great video, i'm going down south..SPI. what is a good color i'm planing on using down south lures? thanks.
What's a good soft lure to throw at south padre island for the summer time??
What hook do you use for the shrimp on the popping cork??
I enjoy all your videos pretty cool tips!
Have you ever thrown Slayer lures? My bag is full of Slayer and down south. Whats your opinion on Slayer lures?
Dunno if you guts have tried Crazy Baits? Ive been using their Nano Minnows. Got every color and size under the sun. And only $3 for 12! I left my bait at home and couldnt be arsed to go back home. Saw these and thought hmmm cheap shit lol But I tell ya I'd hold them upto Gulp! And no Ive not got any connection to them lol Just an idea.
Have you ever fished the clearlake area around southshore? If so what would you recommend ? Just moved to that area.
I watched some of your videos before going fishing down in Rockport this past weekend, I wanted to give lures a try so I picked up some doa shrimp, I had some good hits with this under a popping cork. My only issue was when we stayed on shore and the wind was blowing in. Any help on this, or tips? Thanks
I have the nuclear needle nose down south lure would that be great for clear water in south Padre?
Great vid!!!
So when do you like to throw glow and chartreuse? It's one of my go to colors. I also like strawberry and white shrimp tails or swimming shads
I throw glow and chartreuse if I'm night fishing lights. Anything red and white I will only throw in fairly clean water.
Can u link the lures n tackle ur using plz?
can you do a rod guide for jigs and what not?
That's a pretty good idea I might be able to describe what I use for different setups
ahah looking foward to it. is there any topwaters you prefer to throw in galveston?
She Dog
DownSouthLures FTW!!
yuuuup
so what color do u use if the water is like Green
Natural colors
Oh
where did you get your Hat?
Thanks Drew! When you run Gulp shrimp under a popping cork, do you use a jig head or a non-weighted hook? And on your tandem rigs, are both your jig heads the same weight?
It depends on if I want my gulp to fall faster or have a slow drop in the water. Usually I use a weighted jig head. On tandem rigs the bottom one is weighted and the top one is not

One thing I am having a problem with, is trying to figure out what separates stained water from dark water? Let's say... during day fishing whether sky is cloudy or sunny. Any suggestions on what's considered stained water?
distance you can see through it is how I tell. Drop your lure down next to you and see how deep it goes before you can't see it anymore
+Texas Redfish Hunter so in non clear water, how much visibility distance do you normally give it for you to consider it dirty or stained water? I guess that's what I was trying to ask in my original question.
over here in florida we had the massive algae bloom. what colors would you recommend for like 5 inches of visibility? the rootbeer/chartruce? people told me the glow kind works. any thoughts?
Glow works when night fishing lights, but yeah I'd go with a green or dark color.
thanks man, was going to get into saltwater hard this year but after the algae bloom i kinda gave up until just recently. going to get back out there as much as possible and need any help i can get. love the videos
I fish at South Padre but in the channels or at the pier....never flats any good lures for just fishing from shore?
all these lures work great from shore as well, nothing special that they can only be used from a boat or kayak
Texas Redfish Hunter OK THANKS BRO cause I never use lures much only top water since it's pretty dang fun but I've been wanting to try soft plastics so thanks for the info :)
try a red worm drag it on bottom
Do you like DOA lures? They seem to be a better value then all the other ones you mentioned. Thanks.
I personally am not a fan, but I know other people who like them
OK. I just bought a bunch on sale. Haha. I hope it works out. Any particular reason why you're not a fan? Just curious. Is it the action, the plastic they use, don't like their advertisements, etc. Thanks, great vids and I'm gonna subscribe.
What are your thoughts on glow in the dark lures?
I only throw them when fishing lights
Hey man, what do you use at night time in the dark?
dark lures
Texas Redfish Hunter black?
Where did you buy all of your lures at? Bass Pro shop? or online.
Kelvin Nguyen academy is the only place that carriers down south and gulps are like a dolloar cheaper than other stores
I went fishing today. I followed the color advice from the video, and I quickly filled my limit of trout. However after 9 am. I couldn't get anything to bite anymore, i tried different lures and nothing :(
👍🏻 cool vid
Come back to RUclips TRH!!!!
Man the soaked Gulp shrimps never worked that well inshore compared to real shrimp
Oiga camarada por que no hace este vídeo en español también
Lol gulp doesn’t work on anything but gulp buddy
Thanks for the videos man..I'm gonna give coast fishing one more go this weekend and I'm really hoping to catch something, been watching your videos for 2 days now lol.
good luck!
Texas Redfish Hunter..just watched another vid. about spots and conditions. Do you think the weather conditions lately will affect my chances?
I killed it Drew..thanks for all the fishing tips and set up videos you put out..I bought every lure in this video and they kicked butt, finally have my rod set up right with braid and flourocarbon and learned to tie an FG knot and man it's super sensitive now..thanks again! #FISHON
