You ever trust a guy just by his voice? Well that’s all I had to go on because I didn’t meet the guy until after we had a well established agreement that we made on a verbal handshake. To this day that’s all we ever needed.

I think I saw Jodie Gay from across a hump some 55 miles offshore of Wilmington NC. I was invited by the Greek Nick’s for a day of offshore cobia fishing. We were having a banner day. There were a couple other center console offshore that bluebird day. Nick said to me that’s Jodie over in that boat. I yelled over to him and he just gave me a half wave and kept reeling in his cobia or grouper. No need for long hello’s. He had fish to catch!

Later that week I stopped by Bluewater Candy World Headquarters and like Squidnation World Headquarters it was out back of his house. Man they had it going on! Jodie was at his station making rigs. As big as BWC was back in the day and even bigger today Jodie always seemed to me like he was sitting at his station making rigs or on the road visiting his customers.

I remember finally sitting down with him and His son in law Russell one day at Icast. No fancy restaurant or pages of notes just three dudes talking about fishing, making rigs and the show while eating pub burgers. We had some great laughs that day and then he said Bill, your product is heavy. That shipping is killing us! Can we do something about that. We agreed to split the cost and went back to talking about fishing. I don’t think we ever even wrote it down.

Later in years I dealt more with Russell and Jessica Weaver I remember when I started working with them more than Jodie. One day I asked if he retired and they laughed. He was at his station making rigs.

I’m sorry I never got to fish with Jodie but me personally and Squidnation as a company are so honored to have worked and still today working together on that same verbal agreement. Jodie made us a name down south and we are forever grateful but most importantly he instilled a trust and honored us with his integrity as just a good ole boy who we could work with. I understand he passed away fishing. Now that truly does make me smile on this sad day. My condolences to the entire Gay and Weaver family.

Ok so I lied about the food tour being over. Walked down the street to a very interesting restaurant. It’s a museum to an adventurer by the name of Genuino Madruga. He was the first Portuguese sailor to circumnavigate the world solo and he did it twice.

The octopus stew was fabulous. Rice, tomatoes, onions and all the spices along with a healthy portion of octopus. And Genuino Madruga himself sat us down. The view was a ten as well

It was fun seeing old friends at Teasers last night. The conversation turned to an old topic of what has changed over the last 40 years to advance billfishing. The same ole answers came flying out, Sonar, SST, Horsepower, Dredges etc. On the drive home I kept thinking about the question and I finally came up with my answer that has personally helped my fishing over the last 40 years. Can’t wait to see what the next 40 years brings 😊

We have been getting some outstanding reviews from the crews of the boats we have been testing out new Squidnation.com Dredge eels. Garrett Penley and Capt Bill Lyall from the Blackhawk and Capt Mitch Pierson have both requested more more and more eels! Here are the color options that will be on the site as soon as I return to the states. But for now you can call 410 873 3282 to order. The last photo is the result of 2.5 days of being trolled behind a Flippy Floppy in Mag Bay after one of the most biblical mahi assaults in modern time. Literally hundreds of mahi bites and dozens of striped marlin attacks could not rip our Dredge and teaser eels. Squidnation Ledge Logic ,
