You sissy haha, how do you find those tame Redfish ??

Bragging may not bring happiness,
but no man having caught a large fish,
goes home through the alley.

Simon, he raises them in a salt pond, then has somebody swim underwater and attach them to his hook for video purposes

thanks guys. The fish are really computer generated. I film the tech tips on a green screen and put in background later.

crabs are like crack cocaine for reds. if you dont get a bite in a minute its time to move on.

Nice video. We leave the shell on. Crack the back with a knife and then break in half. The rest is similar. Bigger crab chunks mean bigger fish…most of the time. :wink:

another plus for leaving the shell on is it slows down the bait stealers.
