they used to make quite a commotion in the wake, sometimes even big dog food cans with lids on in a daisy chain full on nuts and bolts to make noise and rattle... as myself I like things that rattle and make noise with the theory that it makes fish curious to come up and have a look.
so that would prob work

.....like your idea of leaving skpiipes on the bungy Ski....nice mate......perhaps throwing out the odd pillie or similar when ya get a fish up? often thought that might work to "tease" up a passive fish in to an angry one....dunoo....and don't really care either....

....like BA we never used to catch many skippies/alberts on the bungies when we used to run the 'Doctor'...and never caught a bonito ever.

| Blue Asparagus wrote: My boat is my teaser, as is any boat your fishing off for marlin. there are two types, teasers exciters, think it was mentioned a while back. Over the years I have run a number of them witch doctor, now dont get me wrong they work bloody well, I have 2 of them, I have not used em for a couple of seasons, I found if I wanted skippies I took the Dr out of the water, but when the tubes were full it got wet again, no one of them and those who have seen swear it has been dragged around a quarry. I used large cotton reels, bloody awesome in a daisy chain, did the same with old lures, tin cans etc etc they work, never brought a chain of cans home. I know tow boone birds, weather on a lure rigged leader mainly on the shotty or in a line of 2 about 1.5m apart. these are on teaser reels. I believe these to be the best around, this is just my opinion and means nothing guys. the idea is to get action on the surface and pull fish to your boat, have you ever wondered why some lures work lots better than others, is it the colour. is it the action, well I now believe its the noise the lure head makes as it punches the water, this also relayed to me by a top game fishoe and lure maker. so making a commotion on the water with noise and white water is the idea i recon. one other addition to my teaser set up is a set of mirrors on my hull, do they work, you betcha they do but they aint for the faint hearted, you only have to look at the ones on my starboard side to see why. |
