Fishing Soft Baits in Saltwater

Description

The past decade has seen a revolution in how saltwater fishermen pursue fish: using soft-plastic imitations that out-fish traditional lures and baits. Fishing this new style of lure takes knowledge and skill to do it right, which Pete Barrett provides in abundance in FISHING SOFT BAITS IN SALTWATER. Learn the secrets of trolling, jigging, drifting and casting soft baits for all types of fish, plus rigging techniques, adding colors, skirts, eyes and hooks, rigging plastic bucktails, tube rigs, shrimp, Slug-Go’s, shads, offshore techniques, and much more. Chapters on tackle and tips and tricks for the soft-bait angler round out this excellent, practical guide.

Pete Barrett’s most recent book is TROLLING FOR STRIPED BASS AND BLUEFISH.
