Sat.3/3 7 DIFFERENT SPECIES (31 FISH)











Saturday, March 3rd- Well, today was interesting to say the least. I had Jody Mills and his Father-in-law, Joel, onboard. Taking into account the wind forecast and the "terd moss" that blooms and dies each Spring in the shallow flats, bays, and creeks in areas of high salinity, I decided to target upriver areas. The water temps in the creeks and bays are also as much as 10 degrees higher than out in the open waters as darker and shallower waters warm much quicker. We grabbed a few bags of Berkley Gulp Baits and set out about 9:00am after the sun got up and warmed things up a little. We fished hard from 9:30 till 5:00pm and all of our effort payed off! We had dozens of strikes and wound up with an unusual variety of fish... For anyone not sure about Berkley Gulp's ability to produce the type of fish you are after.... check this out... All three of us were casting only Berkley's SW baits and we boated 15 redfish, 4 Striper (1 tagged), 4 Flounder, 3 Speckled Trout, 1 Bowfin, 1 Largemouth Bass, and a MONSTER Chain Pickerel (PIKE). I saw several boats in the area of which only one other boat had similar results. The other boat was Capt. Rick Patterson who was also tossing Berkley Gulp Baits. My wife tells me that all I do is fish... you know, she is right... I sit and think about the hundreds of different baits I've fished for each species over the years like many other fishermen. It was often a guessing game.... what lure... what color... what time of day... what time of year... Berkley's Gulp SW baits have changed everything. It seems to be the only artificial bait a fisherman needs in the tackle box anymore. It gives you a heightened sense of confidence as you cast into any fish'n hole. I truly thank Pure Fishing and Berkley for designing a bait whose value cannot be measured or compared to any other in the tackle industry. Here's a few pics from today's catch!
