Salt Strong Fishing

When Justin first asked me, "What makes a great angler?" I didn't know how to answer him.

But after a brief debate, we both realized there was a lot to unpack with this question.

Listen in as we have an open discussion about what makes a great angler? We look forward to hearing your feedback.

If you aren't finding (and catching) as many redfish as you want, then you've got to hear this new episode on finding feeding redfish.

Luke and Joe break down the top 7 reasons most anglers don't catch as many redfish as they desire.

Everything from not fishing in the 90/10 zone to having the wrong bait to fishing bad tides (along with solutions to every problem).

Holy smokes! My eyes saw something that wasn't actually there this morning (that actually changed my body heart rate, temp, etc) and it got me thinking how many times our eyes and what we visualize effect our happiness and success (both negatively and positively).

Listen in as I share what happened.

You spoke. We listened. Now with over 25,000 members in the Salt Strong Insider Club and Community, it was high time we made some big updates. So after taking in all of your feedback on ways we could make the online community even better, we made it happen.

Listen in as Nick shares all of the latest updates (along with some new features we'll be adding soon). If you haven't joined the Salt Strong club yet, you'll be doing it after you see this!

Suspending hard bait lures from brands such as Mirrolure and Rapala can be amazing in certain situations. However, they can also be ineffective during certain times of the year and certain types of structure.

So we had a few of our fishing coaches chime in to discuss when (and when not) to use suspending hard lures.

If you've ever struggled to find faith in yourself (or just been down on yourself or low self-confidence), you aren't alone. I've been there many times before and I'm betting that most everyone has. Sometimes the toughest part is pulling yourself together and getting out of the rut.

Here's how to do it.

We've had a bunch of requests for targeting sheepshead on bridge pilings so Luke and I grabbed some shrimp and hit a random piling to test our luck.

Listen in as we share our favorite sheepshead rig, how to make sure you catch more fish than structure, and how to maximize your time and bait.

Luke and Justin came back from their 3-day rod building class and said they learned more about fishing rods in 3 days than they had in 30 years. They even mentioned that many of the big manufacturers weren't sharing enough of the much-needed intel on what makes a rod great.

So I got them on the show to share everything they learned.

Enjoy and tight lines.

Yep, it's over. A little over two years ago, I instituted a 3-drink maximum into my life. And for the first year, it worked perfectly.

But then it became not as much fun.

Here's what happpened.

If you'd like to catch more mangrove snapper inshore (without having to head miles out) then you've got to hear this. Luke and I fish residential canals using a super simple shrimp rig and catch a bunch of snapper.

The best news is that these shrimp rigs are super affordable and this can be done before work it's so simple.

Enjoy and tight lines.
