Black Salty Success Stories - SALTWATER

Some of our greatest, and most gratifying endorsements, come unsolicited from avid saltwater anglers, members of the outdoor press and professional fishermen who have given the Black Salty baitfish a try.

"If anyone has doubts as to whether the Black Salty baitfish will work for trophy-class speckled trout, then they need to check out the 30-1/2-inch sow my son, Ross, caught from Baffin Bay on a Black Salty in July of 2004. After 8 hours in the ice chest, Ross's big trout weighed 9 pounds, 13, ounces. He caught it while fishing inshore-size Black Salty baitfish on a guided trip with Capt. John Wooten out of Wild Horse Lodge on Baffin Bay.

Ross, his dad and Capt. Wooten caught many other Black Salty-taken trout that hot summer day, several of which were in the 5- to 6-pound class. For trophy-class specks, Black Salty baitfish are every bit as fish-effective as they are cost-effective."

I'm an artificial bait fisherman at heart. The thing that flashes through my mind, every time I see a Black Salty baitfish being used by a fisherman is solid evidence that what I'm seeing is helping to take some of the (bait) nets out of the water. I''m personally looking at it from an environmental standpoint. I used my test baits on two different trips, and we caught trout and reds in Baffin Bay both times.

I was also very pleased with the shipping and delivery via Federal Express Overnight. The fish arrived in very good condition, and are far easier to keep alive and frisky than any saltwater bait I have used. They worked very well in late summer, for both redfish and speckled trout. We are now in the process of wintertime testing, and at this point it looks very promising. The Black Salty can be an excellent big trout bait. As for redfish, there is no question. Fishing the Black Salty, and often in rough conditions, we have repeatedly limited out on reds.

"When I first heard about the Black Salty baitfish, I was skeptical. But as a favor to my friend Larry Bozka, I tried them. We conducted the initial testing in November, 2003, and to my surprise I caught eight flounder under adverse conditions in a single hour. I now use the Black Salty on a regular basis and have caught quality redfish, speckled trout, gafftop and even a large golden croaker.

"Give 'em a try; these baits work."

Capt. Wayne Vinton, Host, SportsRadio 610 Outdoor Show and veteran Galveston Bay professional fishing guide

"I fished the ship channel off the North Galveston Jetty with my 14-year-old son, Adam, in July of '04. Fishing a Black Salty baitfish near the bottom, he caught a 38-inch-long, 25-pound redfish that is his biggest fish to date.
"Watching Adam fight and land that big bull red, and sharing the experience afterward, made for an absolutely priceless father-son memory. You have a great product."

"I've caught some nice red snapper on offshore-size Black Salty baitfish. As for being tough, I've seen Black Saltys swim upcurrent, against a strong incoming tide at the Galveston Jetties, and literally tow three-quarter-ounce fishfinder rigs behind them.
"These are some very hardy baits."

Capt. Ray Keeling, owner of Shutterbug Saltwater Charters and professional outdoor writer and photographer

"Fishing with the Black Salty, I've had success on everything … speckled trout, redfish and flounder, throughout the Galveston Bay System all the way from Trinity Bay to West Bay. I've even caught loads of largemouth bass and catfish on them when I've been inside the saltwater boundary.
"For a 'Go-To' bait, day in and day out, the Black Salty can't be beat."

Capt. James "Frenchie" French, Frenchie's Guide Service operator and lifelong Upper Texas Coast angler and pro fisherman

"We used the Black Salty on quite a few night fishing trips this past summer. We limited out on big speckled trout several times, including the over-26-inch fish my 12-year-old daughter, Jeanette, caught in July of '04.

"We fished the Black Salty side-by-side with finger mullet and other live baits, and there were nights when the trout wouldn't touch anything but the Saltys.

"I do a lot of fishing with my family, and we're sold on 'em."
