Big-O Posted January 11, 2014 Posted January 11, 2014 Not sure that this is where to place this post, but in the show we describe the use and techniques to create Rage Crab Flippin Magic Flippin Fla Mangroves for Big REDS... Yep FLIPPIN Reds, The NEW Deal and I felt like Columbus did when he discovered America At first, we were casting the Rage Crabs to oyster beds in hopes that a scouring red might pick it up. When we hung the jig in the shells, we would have to pull up and pop it loose Nearing the Mangroves I would pitch the bait in them and get BLASTED... This became the NORM and a NEW show was BORN. I promise, I went FLIPPIN CRAZY and for all of us FLIPPIN' CRAZY Bass Fishermen... This IS the REAL NEW DEAL and the waters are Fertile and waiting for us to Rip and Snort.... WOOOOOOP Hope you learn a little bit and have fun watching! Gypsy Angler Ray Van Horn and I WRECK Big Reds Flippin' Mangroves in the Everglades on The Sportsman Channel. Air Time: Saturday 9:30am, Monday 1:30pm & Friday 7:30am EST.. http://youtu.be/TXFeBRcRJTA 4 Quote
Super User Catt Posted January 11, 2014 Super User Posted January 11, 2014 And you just figured this out 1 Quote
Super User SirSnookalot Posted January 11, 2014 Super User Posted January 11, 2014 Cool...........work for snook just as well and I'm willing to bet a permit might grab it too. 1 Quote
ced Posted January 11, 2014 Posted January 11, 2014 This is how I sight fish reds when they are close to the boat. Big difference in a 8lb bass and 8lb red, those things will take you or your rod into the water. They also love a bass creature bait, actually when they want to eat I don't think it matters what piece of plastic is in front of their nose. When they're picky though they can be a real pain. 1 Quote

You're right cdaffin on all points and they'll eat just about anything when they're in the right mood... but I think if we feed them something that they are actively seeking at that time, it sometimes gives us a real edge Quote
CJ Posted January 11, 2014 Posted January 11, 2014 Too cool Big-O!!! I love the looks of that bait! 1 Quote

Super User Teal Posted January 12, 2014 Super User Posted January 12, 2014 Another great big O video 1 Quote
Shane Procell Posted January 12, 2014 Posted January 12, 2014 Steve I saw the show this morning. You did a great job! I thoroughly enjoyed seeing you pop those reds. I have never seen that bait, but it looked like a salt water killa. 1 Quote
Super User roadwarrior Posted January 12, 2014 Super User Posted January 12, 2014 Is the bait a prototype or currently available? Quote
Big-O Posted January 12, 2014 Author Posted January 12, 2014 They've been on the market for sometime RW and the Rage Shrimp is not just for inshore fishing either it's a fine Bass bait too http://www.fishusa.com/Product/Strike-King-Rage-Tail-Crab http://www.basspro.com/Strike-King-Rage-Tail-Crab/product/10209777/ Quote
ced Posted January 13, 2014 Posted January 13, 2014 Just watched the show on Vimeo How did you like sight fishing the reds? That's my personal favorite fishing method, even for bass here in the spring fed rivers. Quote
Super User SirSnookalot Posted January 14, 2014 Super User Posted January 14, 2014 I sight cast when possible. We don't have too many redfish in my area but snook, tarpon, jacks and bass. I'm always looking for signs to cast to a target rather than blind cast, fall seems to be the best time here. Look for bait pods, schools of fish, working birds, changes in water color. Quote
