Do you use a squid jig or are they by catch ?

We use big huge glow in the dark squid jigs. We fish for the squid at night and use them for bait for the giant tuna during the day. We rig them up to a fishing kite and "skip" them along the surface away from the boat. The tuna will come completely out of the water to get them. A 250 pounder looks like a Volkswagen leaping out of the water! They will do the same thing for a Flying Fish too.

Ah....yes we use the same technique in florida for sailfish, tuna, Mahi, kingfish etc. Its awsome to watch the bite happen on the kite.

Edit: With deepest regret I will no longer be promoting this organization. Certain issues have arisen, which I was under the impression were going to be corrected. They were not. Other unethical practices have been revealed and I cannot and will not jeopardize my integrity and values. I pray for the sake of these veterans/families, that the "organization" takes the proper steps to rectify the situation for future events.

Been trying to figure out something to say WD I'm at a loss for words.....god bless all those heros who enjoy the event....perhaps there will be some last minute changes and you can continue your work.....I know you guys were proud to be involved and will miss it.

Well....its been way to long since I posted any fish pics. Have not been out in months, and have just been working on the boats upgrading some equipment. I did get to race in the mac race in the great lakes earlier in the summer. It was an epic race and we were first to finish....an incredible accomplishment !! Here we are crossing the line almost a full hour before the competion. I've also been treasure hunting on the 1733 fleet salvage camp sites. I managed a banner while ive been free from fishing every day. Heres a pic of my 2 treasure coins found this sept. 20190915_114552.jpg so I'll prepare for the fall fishing and hopefully start posting some more pics. Good luck and happy hunting every one !!

They are a no-no out this way,if you hook one you're not supposed to take them out of the water and if you can't remove your hook..cut the line. Sure is a dinosaur looking creature!
