Komodo SS by Okuma – An In Depth Look
Okuma Komodo SS I get a lot of questions about the Komodo SS by Okuma. For those that don’t know, these are their low profile family of reels built specifically for saltwater use. These reels are tough! The SS stands for Stainless Steel. With Stainless Steel gearing, pinion gear, drive and spool shafts as well as aluminum side plates and frame this reel was designed from the ground up for extreme saltwater use. These reels were built for the fight getting up to 30lbs of pure fish stopping power. The 350 size was the first to hit the market a couple of seasons ago putting out over 25 pounds of…

Cedros Kayak Fishing- A Journey Worth Taking
Cedros Kayak Fishing Last year I was lucky enough to have the opportunity to fish a few of the Coastal Conservation Association of California kayak tournaments around Southern California.

And to hear that I won, I was ecstatic! I’ve known the owner of Cedros…

Savage Gear Magnum Squish Jig- Tuna Killer! At this point we all know the tremendous fish catching potential of the Savage Gear Squish Jig. They have been deadly on a variety of fish including tuna, yellowtail, bonito and even dropped down for big, gnarly ling cod.

Having topped out at 180 grams, the standard Squish Jigs were phenomenal. Now the new Magnum Squish Jigs come in at a whopping 250 and 280 grams. This is what the anglers have been asking for.

New Savage Gear High Rider Float Tubes
I recently had the opportunity to get out and test one of the new Savage Gear High Rider float tubes. In short, fantastic ride! These things are built to last. Strong, well constructed, and durable, with a well thought out layout. Let me start out by saying that i have had many float tubes over the years. My wife can attest, as they are or have been all around our garage, and even have fallen on our cars. I, like most float tube anglers, have moved over to the U-shaped float tubes. They are just easier to get in and out of, and I find a little easier to…
