Another glassy June morning in the books. Trying out the new Shimano Curado, and the topwater bite was nothing less than spectacular! All slot reds, all caught and released. Enjoy!

Man... we're a small forum/group of folks on this site - no reason to cross-post this to every sub-forum on BBF :lol: :lol:
Three-fourths of the Earth's surface is water, and one-fourth is land. It is quite clear that the good Lord intended us to spend triple the amount of time fishing as taking care of the lawn. ~Chuck Clark

I suck with top water it appears that you cast it and reel it in crazy fast....

I like a steady walk-the-dog action for redfish. It may appear in the video that i'm working it really fast, but i feel just a constant pace to keep the action steady. They seems to key in on the constant movement. Trout on the other hand will hit a steady retrieve but i like to vary my speeds with pauses when targeting trout specifically.
