    Seadrift Trout Report

    Started before sun up wading for trout with DSL’s chicken of the c, on the oyster shell. The trout weren’t wanting to play nice today. So as the winds slicked off we decided to go chase pods of reds. The first shoreline we pulled up to had reds in small groups, and singles crawling down…

  • Waterloo Salinity Rods

    Waterloo Salinity Rods

    The Waterloo Salinity is my favorite rod for fishing the mid-coast for speckled trout and redfish. It is a great combination of reasonable price and outstanding performance. The Waterloo shop is conveniently located in Victoria and offers a wide selection of rods, reels, and accessories. I currently run a Salinity 7’0″ spinning rod – Medium/Moderate…

    After using my “phone a friend life line” asking a couple questions about water clarity in other parts of the bay. I was able to put these boys on a bite of solid 18-21” trout. Throwing DSL’s Super Natural, on POC custom rods on the edges of reefs is how we found our fish. Lucky…

    Wade gets it done!

    Had a blast fishing with this young man today. 12 year old Wade was eager to learn, and never quit. We took advantage of the light east winds today and spent most of our time in the middle of SA bay. Working the tops of reefs throwing DSL blue moon and kickin chicken were the…

    This group stayed with it for a two day trip and it paid off. Day 1 unfortunately we were met with gusty northeast winds and rain showers which eventually mid day forced us off the water. Day 2 however we were met with partly cloudy skies and light east winds. This made for some fun…

    Sad Day: Evinrude is Gone

    Full Disclosure: My family was an Evinrude dealer for years. Although my allegiance has switched to Yamaha, I had many great days on the water powered by Evinrude and hate to see this latest development. Evinrude experienced bankruptcy with OMC only to rise from the ashes. Hopefully, they will return. Evinrude built the world’s first…

  • DSL did it again

    DSL did it again

    The last couple of days have started off strong with good bites from 6-9:30am. Then after that it fizzles to a one per wade kind of day. The moon showed good feeds early then again late afternoon, just hard to believe it falls off that hard mid day. But, we’ll take what we can get…
