All year long we fish with live bait, but from the Fall through Spring we do a lot of live bait fishing. Part of many
of our charter fishing trips is spent fishing for all kinds of bait. If we can buy
bait we will always will, but it is not always available. Bait
that we buy is not always as good as the bait we catch freshly
caught bait is very lively and will produce more strikes, especially
from
Sailfish.
We use a wide
variety of bait depending onthe
species that we choose to target and time of year. Herring, Pilchards, Goggle eye, and Blue
Runners are best in the kite for Sails & Dolphin. Pilchards, pinfish,
Pigfish, and mullet make great bottom fishing baits . Fishing live
bait on the surface in the riggers we use cigar minnow's, herring, pilchards, sardines,
and many more. The best bait on the down rigger is a "Flipper or Bullet" both are a type of small bonita or tuna. Blue Runners are a close second. |
