Captain
Larry Shults

Member since January 2021 Pensacola, United States
Background
I grew up fishing and have a love for our waterways. I always looked for an excuse to go fishing. I used to fish Bass tournaments until a friend took me out in the ocean. There is nothing more exciting than to drop a line in the ocean and hook into a monster fighter. The greatness of fishing in saltwater is not knowing what’s on the other end of your line until it breaks the surface.
Techniques
I target a variety of wrecks by bottom fishing with drop shots or jigs. I utilize cut bait, live bait, and shrimp to entice the waters below. When the bite is slow I love to set out my deep water trolling gear and Cruise about 7 knots waiting to hear the reels twisting. I loved the sound so much, I named my boat twist”n”reels. I have no preferred styles, I just love to be on the water with a reel and pole in my hand or helping others to catch their lifetime fish.
