"A JETTYWOLF MOMENT" - 12/10/18
VLOGING???....ONE MO' TIME! On the back porch of the Casa de Jettywolf Ranchero delux, in Jacksonville Florida.
It's that time O' the year again folks...like Christmas Caroling in the 1900's before liberal wacko's deemed it offensive to their ''feeling''......But, I still 'juice' before Christmas! And no one can stop me from consuming the sweet nectar of Florida rain showers from all summer and fall. During the cold and flu season, ''I NEEDS ME MY VITAMIN C!''......GOTTA STAY healthy for all these fishing charter clients, and healthy to make videos like this (and others) showing those NORTHERNERS what they are missing, right now in JACKSONVILLE FLORIDA. (Where people like me wear 'shorts' in December!!
No having to speak spanish, like in Miami. We speak ''good ole boy'' here. THE LANGUAGE OF AMERICA
.
SO, COME ON DOWN, to the 'real south'. No need to go any further.
WHY DID YOU MISS IT? THESE ARE THE BEST DAYS OF THE YEAR.
DON'T SHOW UP IN AUGUST AND EXPECT ''THE WORLD ON A HOOK''....OUR BEST IS OCTOBER THRU MAY. FOR ALL INSHORE FISHING. FISHING FOR THE FISH BOX IS BEST DONE OCT-MAY, AND THAT EVEN VARIES EACH YEAR. NOTHING STAYS THE SAME.
WHY DON'T YOU LOOK AT THE WEATHER AND THEN BOOK THE JETTYWOLF. OR JUST ASK ME? I KNOW BETTER THAN THE WEATHERMAN ON TV.
FISHED ALL THE WAY TILL DARK, TODAY
NICK AND I, HAD A COOLER FULL OF THESE
IT'S NO-SWEATING, FISH CATCHING, MY FAVORITE TIME OF THE WHOLE YEAR IN JACKSONVILLE, FLORIDA. BUT NOOOOOOO YOU'LL COME IN JULY AND AUGUST AND IT'LL BE SO DAMN HOT AND MISERABLE. VERSUS CATCHING GREAT EATING, INSHORE-RIVER-JETTY FISH. IT'S SURE TO BE WARMER HERE THAN THE GREAT WHITE NORTH IS IN DECEMBER.
AMERICA FIRST!!
WHEN ITS COLD IN JAX, THE FISHING IS HOT!
BLACK DRUM FROM JETTIES......prime eating!
call today to discuss dates that are prime!@ 904-642-9546 - 8am to 8pm.

"JETTYWOLF LIVE" -YES SPARES, AS IN BOAT ANCHORS. MAYBE OTHER PEOPLE CAN JUST GIVE UP A DAY...I CAN'T. I LOVE ME SPARE EVERYTHING! CAN REALLY GET YOU OUT OF A JAM.
HOW THIS FISHING GUIDE ACCUMULATED A DOZEN OF THE FINEST SALTWATER BAITCASTING REEL, FOR MY PERSONAL USE, AND WHY DO I LOVE THE RYOGA'S SO MUCH. I'M A DAIWA FISHING REEL FAN.
BUT EVEN OLDER DAIWA RYOGA REELS CAN BE PRICIER THAN WHAT MOST WEEKEND FISHERMAN MAY WANT TO SPEND ON A REEL. BUT WHEN IT'S THIS DURABLE AND HIGH QUALITY, WITH SERIOUS LONG DISTANCE CAST-ABILITY, (WITH NO GIMMICKS) I FIND THE OLDER DAIWA RYOGA'S A SERIOUS VALUE.
THE DAIWA I WOULD PUT SECOND, AND THE ONES THAT GO IN THE HANDS OF MY FISHING CHARTER CUSTOMERS ARE THE DAIWA SALTIST 20HC REELS. I HAVE ABOUT 12 OF THOSE. AND I PURCHASED THEM EITHER ON EBAY, AMAZON., OR EVEN ON WALMART.COM...." WHO EVER HAS THE BEST DEAL" I PURCHASE ALL OF MY SALTISTS BRAND NEW.
WANT TO DONATE TO THE CAUSE??

I LIKE KNIVES, GADGETS, HIGH END FISHING REELS. LOVE ME THOSE DAIWA REELS, ADDICTED TO DUABILITY, LIKE UGLY STIKS. ONLY INTERESTED IN DIESEL TRUCKS, AND BIG TOUGH ALL WELDED ALUMINUM ALLOY BOATS.
The easiest fishing there is in Jacksonville, right now!
Be it. the St. Johns River, the ICW, the tidal marsh creeks. The Mayport Jetties, or even 10 miles offshore.
Fishing a lead jig-head and a live Shrimp or even a fresh dead shrimp, couldn't be any easier this time of year for a vast number of species.
You read that right. Even, offshore. I say that because I've done it when the water temps are low, and had a ball on light tackle.
Cut & paste these URL's into Google, and watch for yourself:
https://youtu.be/ideE-b-ujlk and https://youtu.be/U1kHaqiknTY
Yes, a jig and Shrimp. The absolute "go-to" of the N.E. Florida fishing scene when the water temps are not warm. (as in deep dark summer time)
Why now? Because, there's way more "desirable's" around, and less bait stealing thieves when the water's cold.
Where? Along any structure that has a nice easy current.
What kind of jig-heads? I have containers full of simple ball-head unpainted jigs with a decently stout Eagle Claw gold hook. In various sizes, from 1/8th to 1/2 ounce. There is absolutely no need for some giant thick black expensive hooks on a jig-head, or even paint for that matter. Locally, most fisherman stay away from jig-heads meant for some fancy plastic bait, and opt for a shorter shank hook on the jigs. No need for buck-tails, or feathers......''you're fishing Shrimp'', that's what the fish smells and wants. No added accouterments!
You can find these style jigs at local bait shops, Academy Sports (usually in better stock on-line, then in local stores) and at Walmart,
Added benefits. The same jig-head can be fished with not only a live shrimp, a fresh dead Shrimp, but you can also do a jig-n-fiddler crab combo meal also. Versatility, is a key factor. DO NOT JUST BUY ONE PACK OF 3 JIG-HEADS AND THINK YOU'RE SET. BUY HANDFULS! BECAUSE IF FISHED PROPERLY. YOU'RE GOING TO LOOSE A BUNCH!
Stay warm, stay dry. And I'll see ya'll out there,

"VIA JETTYWOLF'S YOUTUBE, HOW-TO & TECH TIPS PLAYLIST" oh no....the Jetties ate my anchor!!! Had to cut my anchor line. Lost $200+ of ''ground tackle''. It's happened before, won't be the last.

RETRO MAYPORT JETTIES REDFISH W/ JIG-N-SHRIMP (fiddlers too) with the Dogster
take notice..VERY LIGHT 8-10, MAYBE 12# MONO, SOMETIMES, not super braid. BUGGY WHIP RODS....to match the fine wire hook on the jig-heads, we used back then. this was in DECEMBER! no one was around. The fish were super PLENTIFUL! unlike today, there was plenty of ''keepers'' around the rocks. TROLLING MOTOR?? YES. but, I preferred ANCHORING UP! And still do!! I'm a spot fisherman. ONCE I found them. Over goes the anchor.
