The Saltwater Series tournament trail is owned and operated by Simrod Outdoors and was created by Jim Elrod and Scot Simmons.

Scot and Jim have fished tournaments since 1999.  They have polled fishermen from Louisiana  to South Padre Island asking what they are looking for in an inshore tournament.  The response was low entry fees, wadefishing, and more dates to fish.  The original Texas Redfish Tournament Series was designed from the feedback.  Since 2004, the company has expanded  from a small series, to a full blown outdoor production company. 

Simrod Outdoors produces the Redfish Series, Trout Series, Kid’s Series and Kayak Series tournament trails.  In addition, the company produces the Majek Owner’s Tournament, Rock the Riviera Tournament, the Saltwater Series Television show on FSN Southwest and the new Redfish Radio program.
