Awesome job! What are the rod and reel specs / braid weight you were using on that E6X setup?

[@richard2081]

Congrats to you and Jessica for a great 4th place finish on artificial baits.

[@duncansmith536]

You might as well invest in a pair of Smith Guide bifocal readers. Then you can tie that knot.

[@flatsclasscharters]

😂

[@woodystemms3799]

Evidently, our wives have something in common. They didn't marry "Mr. Right". They had to settle for "Mr. Always Right". 😁 Well done ... .

[@michaelsegarra8482]

To be clear!! Who left the boga?😂 gotta love Blondie! No way my wife does that!

[@flatsclasscharters]

We know who really left it 😂

[@mikemcgovern8719]

Good job, great video….any angler.could use live and cut bait! No challenge there, that’s like feeding candy to a baby.

[@jacknewman45]

I see with money on the line CA breaks out the G.Loomis

[@flatsclasscharters]

😂

[@shawnholton8996]

Congrats on the tournament CA, 4th place is a respectful finish with that many anglers even though I suspect you fished it just for the fun and to support a local event. As always, tight lines and screaming drags!

[@flatsclasscharters]

👍🏼 thanks for that Shawn

[@joshheitman5459]

CA you’re the best! Congrats to you and the wife. Appreciate everything you do. Thanks for sharing.

[@flatsclasscharters]

We will keep the videos and fishing tip’s coming I promise. Thanks for the compliment

[@davidraguse2106]

What was the name and brand of pump used to exchange water out of your live well please ?

[@Philip-gy4fi]

😊

[@dhdn-v8p]

I have a question if i use the xx teramar medium 7 foot could i use a weedless soft plastic with it

[@flatsclasscharters]

Yes but try to use a thinner wire rigging hook

[@dhdn-v8p]

could you specify as what that is

[@billhobson6637]

Note to CA: buy a second Boga for the skiff! 😀😂😀😂

[@RobertSmith-xy8ti]

Hey Cap, what folding net is that? I really like that for easy storage.

[@Lees920]

Was there a culling permit for all of the tournament anglers or was the limit 2 redfish per person per day then?

[@davidraguse2106]

Great effort... what was the colour of the 3" paddle tail please?

[@Senju2156]

That’s great CA. Good job from you both, btw I love those red fish gloves, just bought a pair and they are so cool.

[@flatsclasscharters]

Nice

[@charliegardner2098]

Blondie's going to wring your neck when you get home

[@comfortablynumb9342]

Well done Capt CA. Congratulations! I've been catching reds in the Chesapeake Bay on popping corks with a Trout Magic jig and I caught my first one on a Redfish Magic spinner bait recently. All from shore or piers. But tomorrow we're taking the kayaks out and hopefully it'll be good.

[@flatsclasscharters]

Good luck 🍀

[@comfortablynumb9342]

@@flatsclasscharters I got a 25" redfish, best yet in VA and on my kayak.

[@leechaney3703]

Are you throwing a DC reel in saltwater?

[@flatsclasscharters]

Yes as a matter of fact I am…

[@leechaney3703]

@@flatsclasscharters I do as well even though they don’t recommend them for saltwater. I’ve used mine now for 3 years with no issues.

[@ReelTimeCapt]

Very Nice Job and Congrats! Thank you for sharing, CA

[@livewithnick]

there's a town in California called Thank you for sharing?

[@TCampbell1990]

This type of video was really cool. You both are hammers! Way to come in the clutch at the end and level up. Tight lines

[@flatsclasscharters]

Results always comes from consistency and the fact that you have to have the confidence to fish hard all day

[@sts242]

What a shame I fished out of that ramp for years before new owners

[@lwathlete2002]

Best small boat ramp in the area. Well kept secret RIP Johns fish camp😢can’t afford to use that one anymore

[@nicholashutson8985]

Will you go over the yeti air system you have on this video

[@johnbracey5316]

Great video CA!

[@captstephenflookjr]

Definitely got my attention with the title!

[@flatsclasscharters]

Stephen you already know how to win 😎

[@philiphunt_AFFL]

Great video can’t wait til I get to visit crystal river (Plantation Inn) in December for the first time ever. Never fished this type of area before (bass lake guy lol).

[@kennethmcdermott5585]

Well done ! 4th place is respectable . Did you notice how many inches took : first, second and third place trout ?

[@phillipchristensen3202]

Thanks for giving a glimpse into your approach. In most tourney situations do you tend to find spot(s) that are likely to produce and wait for the fish or do you stay on the move as you did in most of this video?

[@dandodge637]

How did you do your yeti live well?

[@rdo075]

Great video, great job👍🏽

[@AliexFolgueira]

It was the banana 😂

[@flatsclasscharters]

I know right!

[@joshwhite9211]

Me and my wife the same way 😁

[@olivergrigull5647]

Thanks.

[@simonfrazier591]

Congratulations on finishing in the top 5 of this tournament.
