SHOW DESCRIPTION

Many anglers think the trick for using a “nature faker” is choosing the right size and color bait. We’ll pick up where we left off last week, and take an inside look at how some soft-plastic baits are designed.

When many people think of “nature fakers”, they think of soft plastics. This isn’t always the case. Hardbait improvements over the years have turned them into as impressive a “nature faker” as any softbait too.

Join us this week as Blair Wickstrom and Mark Nichols use nature-faking baits to catch trout and snook on the Indian River. Then we head up the coast to the newly opened Canaveral Bight area during the mullet run to fish with editor David Conway and Captains Jim Ross and Dan Clymer.
