You have a kayak, a rod & reel, a bait well, and a cooler. You’ve just been given a gift card to your local sporting good store for $70. What kind of tackle would you buy? (Lures, Leaders, Hooks, etc.)
The target would be Red Fish and Trout in Galveston, TX.
Gulp baits, #2hooks, sinkers, floats. Fish the bottom at high tide with no float. Cast out with light sinker and float at other times. This is what we do in Florida gulf.
