Captain
Shawn uses light spining gear, spooled with light
braided line. For redfish and trout you will use
a light, fast rod with 8 to 10 pound test. When
you're snook and tarpon fishing, you will use
a medium rod with 15 to 20 pound test. Captain
Shawn fishs with only the best including Castaway
Rods, and his very own custom rods built just
for him. Shimano and Diawa reels spooled with
light Power Pro braided line. He uses artificial
and live baits depending on the species you are
fishing for. When fishing with Captain Shawn all
your licenses, gear, ice, and tackle are provided.
If you have a favorite rod and reel, feel free
to bring it, just let him know ahead of time to
make space for it. A good pair of polarized glasses
is also key when sight fishing. Below is some
of the products that I use every day on the trips.
