    Good job with the Slam Shady on the Reds! I've been a member of Sat Strong for several years and I'm glad I joined. They just had a podcast on trout in the winter, you need to go deeper for them. Find a drop off, 3-5ft with structure and current, next to that flat you were on.

    I have been trying to use artificial baits for about a year or so. Never had much luck with them. So instead of giving up on them and going back to live bait. But decided to try the Slam Shady paddle tails. So glad I did. First time I tried the Slam Shady paddle tails I cought a couple of nice Snook a small but nice trout a
    Slot red and a couple of really nice flounders. Needless to say I'm hooked on the
    Slam Shady paddle tails.
    Now they are all I use. I'm sure Justin will be very pleased with them. Unfortunately the weather has been to cold for me to get back out there Kayak fishing. Looking forward to next Spring to go kayak fishing with my Slam Shady paddle tails.

    Much love for the slam shady. Best trout and medium to smaller snook lure period. Solid with the reds and flounder too. I've even been catchin mangrove snapper with them of late as well. Thet just have great tail action with the perfect elasticity. Its pretty much the swiss army knife of lures. The gold digger (dark with gold sparkles) in colder months and clearer weather works great too up in NE florida.

Can't say enough good about Salt Strong...and Justin you are a great example of what they represent...in your love for not only catching, but for the fish, the water and the way of life. I have much respect for your attitude and the example you are to fishermen young and old. 👍🏻
