Seaguar on the Water

“I don’t know if I’m the right guy for this one Scott, I’m pretty picky about line” was the response I gave my editor when he’d asked if I’d be willing to review some Seaguar Pink Label Fluorocarbon and ThreadLock braid. His response, “No pressure. Just try it out and give me your honest opinion.”

The salmon species are a well-regarded fish species for both their sport and excellent table fare. While native to the North Atlantic and Pacific Ocean, they can be found in the Great Lakes and have legions of fans fishing for them yearly. 

American bass anglers owe a lot to their Japanese counterparts as some of the most significant innovations cross the Pacific Ocean and then slowly enter the tackle boxes of North American anglers. The drop-shot rig is one prime example of something that started in the Far East, gained steam in the western United States and is now a staple throughout the country.

Fishing aquatic vegetation is second nature to bass anglers, but the green stuff is just as crucial for walleye fishing. They use weedlines as travel routes and know that grass holds plenty of forage, making them the perfect place to search for their next meal. 

Many aspects of fishing relate to pursuing fish from boats, but fishing from shore is a major draw to some anglers. It's especially popular in the northeastern states for a favorite regional quarry: the striped bass. 

Part of what makes the redfish so popular is their affinity to bite. They're generally a willing predator, making them a favorite target for inshore anglers no matter where they live.
