I’ve caught various different species using this technique here in Puerto Rico

[@comfortablynumb9342]

I've seen a lot of fish caught on cut bait in Costa Rica too. Saludos desde Virginia.

[@Saltstrong]

It's a fantastic technique!

[@dhirenm3173]

Actually works quite well for me as well with all sorts of species. And a much quicker and aggressive bite

[@JustLikeZyro]

Works good with needle fish also had luck that way when I can’t get bait

[@ryanwilcox8866]

What pound test for line and leader were you using?

[@Saltstrong]

20lb PowerPro braid and 30lb Berkley Vanish Fluorocarbon Leader

Thanks for watching!

[@kylesaric3652]

what size/brand hook is that if you can remember

[@lugo2510]

I believe that is a croaker hook not a circle hook. Or am I wrong?

[@Saltstrong]

It is a big circle hook!

[@Milo_1368]

I do this with bluegill for all manner of fish

[@Saltstrong]

Nice!

[@Destructible59665]

I use shrimp……

[@Saltstrong]

Everything eats a shrimp!

[@german2250]

Wow. It works

[@Monty_golf18]

Is carp good cut bait?

[@comfortablynumb9342]

Carp are freshwater fish and redfish live in the saltwater and brackish water. But if you threw a chunk of carp in front of redfish I would be surprised if they didn't eat it. If it smells like food they'll eat it generally.

[@Saltstrong]

Agreed^^

[@Heydude2020]

Leaving the scales on the hook increases hook up ratio by 90%

[@Saltstrong]

It actually decreases hook up ratio. The scale will prevent the hook from sticking to the fish's mouth costing you bites

[@Heydude2020]

@@Saltstrong it costs you fish not bites and it’s crazy how you didn’t pick up on the sarcasm 😂

[@Rainersherwood]

They sharpen hook point for you haha

[@BigPoppieSeed]

I'm suprised your chunk of mullet even stayed on the way you hooked it.

[@Saltstrong]

That's how you should rig the mullet chunks!

[@BigPoppieSeed]

@@Saltstrong o.k... got it. Barely hook the mullet chunk ...like a chump!

[@dhirenm3173]

Actually i would have hooked it even lighter . Making it easier to get of the hook . Fish like it barely hooked . Also the hook is not hidden in the bait and essentially not hindering the hookup. This technique is so underated and so few are willing to even try .

[@mmatribeleader]

Why no weight?

[@KrawlerKustoms]

Yeah if you can see the fish.

[@Eric-gi9kg]

Unfortunately.. Red Fish don't exist in the PNW (Pacific North West)

[@ETuss713]

This is what salt strong has come to? Telling folks to use fresh dead when it gets tough, sad, very sad.

[@Saltstrong]

How so? We promote anyone and everyone catching more fish
