Are you guys using downriggers or planners for these fish? And what speed are you guys moving at for the blackfin and sail fish thanks!
Heck yeah, nice job captain!
The first sailfish took a dolphin fly on my light Ugly Styk spinning rod (steelhead rod). I had this as my short line for dolphin. When I slowed down, the second sailfish took the bait on the rigger down 40′. The blackfin have been taking either green bubbler dolphin flies or deep diving Mann’s plugs in blue and silver. Blackfin usually eat earlier in the day. Trolling speed is usually around 7 mph. 75% of all the fish I catch are on the downrigger with 40 ft of line out at 7 mph, so down 15? For the sailfish doubleheader, I caught/ released both on my own.
I have video of the double header but there is no way to post it here.
