Speculizer, anybody tried em?

[booyagasha]

Just bought the speculizer, basically a double rig bought from the store. anybody ever used them, had any luck? Fishing in a tourney and won't have time to test it out, waste of money /money well spent?

bought some spoons, chads, minnows, and couple others, any iother pointers?
never ever fished with lures/artificial, always chased the birds and tossed live skrimp at em. help a salty brotha out pleasee


these too

Both will catch trout,no doubt.

Some tourneys have rules about fishin tandem rigs... I have a buddy who crushes school trout in the tandem cork rig.... I refuse to throw a cork. Yer best shot a big trout will be at sunrise 1st light throwing a spook jr. Smoke/ truce or truce/ clear ( I assume u r fishing coco/ fourchon?? Also slang that Topwater spook anytime the sun goes behind a cloud .. If u have a partner make him fish plastic under a cork or on a jug head and u stay dedicated to the TW just grind it out let him catch what u need to weigh in n u cull those with bigger TW ones u catch . Pm me of where u r fishing n I'll try to help u out

THATS ONE HELLAFIED TOURNEY PLAN RIGHT THURRR...i likes

tourney's in DuLarge for my pop's company. I guess it's a Houma/Terrebonne thing for double rigs, i think it started off here...

anyways, i just bought the setup to have a reference so i can make my own.

DEFINITELY WILL GO BUY SOME SPOOK jr's, didnt have it when i was shopping.

here's some other gear,
is treble hooks better, im thinking so, need to keep that in mind next time i go shopping.

also another noob question, best way to rig a spoon?

i want to slam the trout...my pops only care for reds

[fishinpox]

Just throw topwater till 9ish am unless it's cloudy if so throw that ish all friggin day.. If around 830-9 the TW bite slows throw a mirolure catch 2000 suspending bait

[fishinpox]

What size boat??wind? Can u make it to the islands???

[booyagasha]

18.5 striper c/c

only thing is no trolling motor and fishfinder intermittently comes on and off.So I'm gonna have to stray from the skinny's, A shot to coco islands was my original plan. I've fished Dularge but in flats boat, never fished in the striper yet.

Run to the islands look for mullet schooled up don't throw into em but on the fringes or ahead of em ...... I'd start in the cove @ trinity big reef / bar usally holds big fish. I've had alot of luck in that cove this year. Last year I watched someone win a tourney from that cove also that wellhead directly north 300 or so yards holds nice fish all around it is a big shell pad fish a soft plastic slow n deep around it don't think u have to just fish the legs either that pad extends far out around the rig

thanks for the speedy input POX, as it turns out---me and buddy are making an "out-da-blue" fishing trip in Dulac in a little bit. Gonna go test out them TW and spoons and will report back.

DAng,I really need to step my TAckle box GAME up....

Great idea......custom-painted Texas Chicken.

[booyagasha]

bahhh...the flats boat's motor borked on us just now...so will have to test during tourney time.

mirror lures, bombers ,and Zaras are on my shopping list.

i think the best bet for us and specks is at the islands/ around the islands...

thanks for the input guys....hopefully we can make this an eventful and successful first ever fishing tourney AND first ever time using TW/artificials

[booyagasha]

Can't wait to try this bad boy out...need some mirror lure also but couldn't. Find any
