Salty Girl of the Month – Taylor Schulze
Taylor Schulze from Texas is only 13
and started fishing when she was 2 years old.
She enjoys fishing with her brothers in the tanks & on the river at
her grandparent’s house near Rockport, Texas & loves to fish in Baffin Bay. When she was small she even filled up the
bathtub pretending to be fishing and was found sneaking a fishing line into our family’s
fish tank.
Taylor’s favorite memories of
fishing was when she caught her monster bass and going out on her first
tournament with her mom’s fishing team, "Just Hook'n" and winning the
Babette division of Babes on Baffin Blue Fishing Tournament.
Her favorite captain is Capt. Chad Verburgt and fishing on the Rockport
Redrunner, a Carolina Skiff. Taylor is
always learning something new from Capt. Chad.
Taylor's most unusual catch
was when she caught a little puffer fish while her favorite fish to catch and
eat is Redfish or a Mangrove Snapper. Taylor is a strong advocate of
releasing fish back into their habitat.
She always is fishing with her lucky reel & Redtail rod with all her
crazy fishing buddies. Taylor loves to have Takis (a type of hot chips) on
board to munch on and a radio so she can sing along & do her fish dance.
Taylor’s tip for anyone who is
starting to fish is to be confident and it's not the amount of fish you catch
or the size of the fish, it’s to have fun. Her most important tip, I think we
all share is what happens on the boat stays on the boat. Her most recent award was for the longest
fish in the Babes on Baffin Blue Tournament.
She won an award with a custom rod.
