You want to catch bigger fish? Starting using bigger baits. In part 2 of our rigging bonita for live bait, we show how we catch and rig them up while out on a charter. We troll feathers on planers to catch the bonita in the first 30 minutes or so of the charter. This gives us the freshest bait possible for the trip. It is very important to store your bonita in tuba tubes, as they won't last long in traditional baitwells. Once we get to about 150ft to 200ft, we begin to put the baits out using a triple treble hook rig. Since the baits are so big, you don't want to lose fish due to short strikes. Wahoos typically bite the back side of the fish and usually how we hook them, so its important to have those 2 hooks down the sides of the fish. Using bullets you will catch big wahoo, sailfish, marlin, barracuda, sharks and more. Not many game fish around here that will refuse a fresh bonita on the troll. Hope this helps and stay tuned for our next rigging video.
