This is the newest addition to our Roscoe Jig line-up. Built for medium-light tackle,  Lil’ Man weighs two ounces and was designed with bottom critters and small mouthed fish in mind.  Our field trials showed that Lil’ Man is a killer on trigger fish, black sea bass, grunts, pinkies, snapper, kings, dolphin and others!  Lil’ Man has a glow paint body with three accent colors available, pink, blue and brown.  It comes rigged with a #2 treble hook.

Hi folks.  I am going bananas on the web now that I’ve got my own Twitter account.  Keep up with me by following me on Twitter!

Even though we do it for fun, we all know what a challenge fishing can be.  But most of us know only the recreational side of things.  Imagine the pressure we might feel if getting skunked on the water meant we might have trouble paying our family’s bills. 

In that situation, wouldn’t you pay a little extra attention to what does and doesn’t turn fish on?  Would all your knots and crimps be just a little tighter?  And maybe your hooks a little sharper?

That extra attention is what makes Capt. Jodie Gay’s Blue Water Candy different from any other line of tackle.

For 23 years Capt. Jodie knew the pressure of fishing for a living, and the rewards that come when everything you put in the water is just right.  He specialized in hook-and-line fishing in the open ocean, trolling for tuna, dolphin, wahoo and king mackerel in pretty much the same way sport fishermen do.  He also made money bottom fishing for grouper and snapper, on trips that might keep him on the water for two or three days and nights.

By the time he decided to quit commercial fishing, in 2002, Jodie Gay had figured out a thing or two about what kind of rigs and techniques help fill up a fish box.

We just received our first TackleMonkey.com Fishing hats!  These are great looking hats and below are some photos.  The hats will are available in khaki with black trim, white with blue trim, dark gray with blue trim and light gray with blue trim.  We also have a white with blue trim fishing visor.
