Always something new to learn from CA

[@flatsclasscharters]

Thanks my friend

[@the_forgotten_angler]

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....

[@flatsclasscharters]

Yes 1/4 head weight then adding a larger plastic will give you enough weight to cast but float high where the poons like to feed

[@richard2081]

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

[@flatsclasscharters]

Thanks Richard… it works well with this technique

Capt !! Tarpon seem to show up near me in the St John’s river a pretty good distance from the mouth. I’m in Green cove springs and I’ve Only ever caught them free lining a shrimp at night !!! Wish I could hear what you would have to say about Tarpon that far up the river ! You da man Capt

Got the pics to prove it ! Wish I could hear what you would have to say about Tarpon that far up the river ! I’m in Green Cove Springs ! You da man Capt !

[@flatsclasscharters]

We see tarpon here in my area all the way upriver as well sometimes in the freshwater springs… and folks catch them trolling plugs

[@jonathanfortune5660]

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

[@flatsclasscharters]

Distance matters and they don’t feel the lighter weight braid

[@njsurfrider]

Nice.

[@Howie_fish]

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

[@flatsclasscharters]

Maybe I will get with Thonny again and do a YT vid on Pomps

[@Howell-jq7sp]

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

[@flatsclasscharters]

Stained water lets you employ a wider variety of soft baits and even hard baits. The Mag Swimz and Heroz from Zman are good choices

[@zionyhap5288]

No longer represent Shimano I see 😮

[@randallmiller572]

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!

[@flatsclasscharters]

Absolutely the Senko profile would be ideal

[@randallmiller572]

@@flatsclasscharters thank you sir!

[@ConnerWright-ig9on]

Sorry about the multiple comments !

[@flatsclasscharters]

No worries my friend

[@brianhammer-ul2zu]

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

[@kyle896]

Bro how many comments are you gonna leave?

[@ConnerWright-ig9on]

My phone froze. I’m glad it bothered you
