    If you encountered a grizzly bear in the woods, would you dance and taunt the 700-pound man-eater? Well, trolling a high-speed lure past marlin, wahoo, tuna and dolphin is like poking the bear—it tempts predators to attack. But bluewater monsters aren’t mindless killers; the wrong color, flash or movement sends them swimming away.

    The jetty is a ubiquitous piece of structure for nearshore fishing. These rocky man-made points dot both coasts, providing thousands of unique and productive fishing opportunities. Jetties act like an oasis where vegetation, mollusks, crabs, bait and gamefish accumulate. They are beloved by all anglers, and many of us cut our teeth by fishing from them. If you’re interested in becoming a better jetty angler—from shore or boat—here are some tactics to help up your game.
