I believe most braided lines tend to break around 10% or more of their rated strength. I think I remember seeing a test and most brands 10lbs broke between 12-15lbs of actual pull

Hi Captain CA! I just started viewing your Tidewater videos. Really great content!!! I’d say this is my favorite. Some feedback for you….After each video (3 so far) I walk away knowing the guest from your perspective. I’m not sure if that’s the intent. Seems like you have to carry the conversation quite a bit. Maybe the guest would open up more sitting in a boat or outside in their happy place. But regardless it’s all very interesting conversation. Hope this helps! Keep them coming.

Another great presentation. I had 60 lb braid. Will switch to 30 for longer casting. Thank you sir

Great content as always Capt CA! Do you change the hook to a bigger size like you mentioned with the 6 inch mulletron or keep the stick hook for the 4.5 inch size? Thanks!

Nice.

Always something new to learn from CA

I can say for beach fishing: Pompano/redfish/drum/whiting don't care about the color of your line. I have 20lb (due to flinging 3+ oz weights on 12 and 15' poles) bright orange line. Pelicans, jetskis, swimmers, and boaters can see it. Go high vis (neon yellow/pink/orange) and you'll get less morons in your line.

Upside-down rigging is blasphemy 😅 jk If you say that rod is too light for pass fishing What size would you use in a pass but still be able To cast artificial. Probably won't be targeting tarpon but big Reds & Snook . Thanks for your input

What do you recommend using in off color water for Tarpon?

Really good info all the way around. I like to throw a seven incher with a 3/16 jig head to keep it high. But your advice is gonna help people catch more poons for sure....

I almost bought that same sodium hat lol

Great video Capt.! Would a Senko or stick style bait work.? They’re plenty heavy to cast weightless. Just wondering if it would work on the Cape Fear up here in NC. Thank you sir!

How awesome must it be to have a friendship with Flip. An honor it would be!

Hey Captain, make a video on jigging for Pomps, great tasting fish and great inshore fights

Y’all hear that drag on a bait cast!!!!!!! EEEEEEEEEWWWWWWWWWW!!!!!!

C. a. I like the idea of rigging the bait upside down.

Absolutely awesome bait when out this morning and really used it because of your video and caught some monster reds

Good video and nice presentation, thanks captain

Excellent coaches and mentors don’t shy away from the controversial topics. Glad you took the time to address these two conundrums; people and sharks. I salute you my friend and hope that people learn and practice this wisdom.

Very helpful buddy! Thank you for more insight on those!

Great video C.A. and also a DOH! Moment for me 😂 I bought a selection of the Flats Buggs a few weeks ago, after watching your videos. I've been seeing a lot of Reds lately, and I've caught a few, but totally forgot about the Buggs Jigs. I need to keep a rod rigged with one. 🤔 What's your favorite color for water with a little color, I'm fishing up around Honeymoon. What size weight are you using. Love that stool im heading to Tailwaters to check it out this weekend. I think it would be a great addition to Flipper. I'll tell em you sent me

Amazing video, for a moment I was right there

CA… best of the best!

No young dudes are doing baitcasters in saltwater, your old school CA

I'm a zman guy myself but what are your thoughts on the NLBN baits?

Use the Permital in the Keys for Permit and in Port Charlotte for reds. The softest landing jig I have ever thtown. Tight lines!!!!!!!!

Good information. Thanks

What sugar single hooks are those Capt. CA, and size? Thanks!

Where did you get the stool in the front of your boat?

Have been considering trying some buggs lures. Why the Permital over a Beastie ? What color would you choose in Louisiana s stained waters ? As always thanks for the videos.

Seen you out today buddy great seeing you on the water you do any good?

hi CA. watched u talk bout Buggs a few times now and wat they can offer to sight casting on the flats. month ago i got a few to try on the fish i target wen sighting casting flats in Australia. have to tell u mate the tusky n golden trevally really hammer the Buggs. my sight zone is from 200mm(8 inches)to max 3m(10 foot). up until then it was the zman goat which still gets a swim.

Well, if the Albright slips on coated lines, enrease the raps to minimum 12. It won't slip again. I personally put 15 raps on and don't go under 12 on coated of fused lines.

Use one of those for bass fishing for years

thoughts on this jib for striped bass? if so, what color way would be most effective. Thanks Capt!

Just bought me a hundo with a Fitzgerald rod. Can’t wait to give her a shot!

I just added a fin to my trolling motor so hopefully that helps me in the wind in my canoe. I always learn stuff from you, I appreciate your angle ingenuity in fishing ✌️❤️😃 thanks captain C,A

Thanks for the video C.A.👍🤠 You can make these bugs jigs yourself. He sells everything to build them and has videos on how to do it. It’s a blast catching reds on a jig that you made.

12:01 what if you’re kayak bound and have limited range? Do you think it’s worth it to always be trying out new spots or to really get used to your local waters?

Why the FG knot over the Alberto on this setup?

I'm betting this will soon become my favorite braid to leader knot.

Looks like a short in your trailer lights, they have been flashing all thru the video

What kind of live bait and how did ya present it?

I have no confidence with bigger baits in saltwater idk why

Fluorocarbon is the biggest scam in fishing history. I learned the hard way. Braid and mono have never failed me

Best episode so far. Shaw Grigsby is a legend and one of the nicest people you would ever meet. Keep them coming C.A.!

We used 1-3 0z bucktail jigs with the biggest 12 phantom soft body swim bait & slayed them in John's Pass.

Your method of relaying information is outstanding. Easy to understand and gets me fired up to get on the water. You have also helped me greatly to catch fish and get me back into salt water fishing. Cheers. Keep the videos coming. New subscriber and follower.

Good stuff

How do yhey skip? I fish a lot of docks for snook but also like to cover open water between docks in the early mornings.
