This year has been a tough one with all of the wind and storms.

But you can still make it happen on the water!

You’ll learn:

  • Types of areas we typically fish on tough days
  • How to fish on a super windy day
  • The best lures to catch inshore slams

Hey Luke and Joe! If you’re looking for suggestions. I would love to see some offshore kayak fishing. Trolling for kings or vertical jigging. You guys should also look into getting the slam shady 2.0 in the 5in size. Thanks!

Also regarding the boating tips, one issue I had starting out (figured it out now) was how to properly get a boat on plane. I struggled with that for a bit as I was just plowing water continuously lol. I think that would help a ton a people out and don’t think it’s talked about enough.

Luke you mentioned charging into the wind instead of repositioning on say a point, my question is, when the wind is kicking like that and you have a t-top or even a tower like you have on your boat you have to turn the power up greatly on the trolling motor. Is the wind churning up the water going to mask the noise of the trolling motor? Do you think the trolling motor could still scare the fish in that situation?

The trolling motor is always a potential culprit in spooking fish. But most of all, the waves hitting a boat will be spooking fish which is why I try to never position myself to fish which requires that I have to push into wind-chop unless I absolutely have to.
