Fishing with Bruno Brundowski is always a gift. He said let's go catch that 30 inch redfish for the Catch a Florida Memory big fish club. We have caught lots of them over 30 inches just never documented them. So we get to the spot and dad can't keep the black drum off the mortician and Bruno rigs. With blue crab, ghost shrimp and FishGum!

We moved and I was able to get on the pompano and whiting immediately! Ladyfish was all over our rods lots of snoods were replaced on the mortician rig but not one Sputnik was lost. We fished only two rods a piece. Great day with Dad!

The pompano have been biting hard! Dad and I had our limit Thursday from 6:30-7:57am and yesterday incoming tide was absolutely bonkers! Caught lot of short but did get 6 nice pompano!

Fish were on day 1 with ghost shrimp, we didn't have any crabs that morning. Day 2 we used Fishgum, ghost shrimp and blue crab. All baits worked amazing!

When we started making sputnik sinkers 8 years ago we did not know where this was going to take us but when your only desire is to make the best products in the marketplace great things happen.

This month, Fishing Tackle Retailers have decided to give our products a product spotlight in their latest magazine and we are super pumped. Check it out on page 43.
We continue to only make the best quality products for our customers. If you are a tackle shop and looking for the best quality USA Made sputniks, we are your choice.

Blue crabs and ghost shrimp were on fire! No synthetic baits used mostly because of time! Fish eat live bait and are looking for fresh bait! So we fish live bait normally! Got 11 pompano in 90 mins and threw 7 back! All caught on "the naked Morty". Aka fishing mortician rig! All caught in Jacksonville. We want everyone to fill that cooler with gas prices as high as they are! Huguenot park was the place for us!
