Range

The 4.5 Ounce MYDO Bluefin Bomber can swim big baits. Even a 3 or 4-kg king mackerel will swim straight and naturally when hooked up to this deep-diving rig. You can set a big old squid bait right underneath the chum slick or slow-trolling spread. A 3 or 4 kg tuna or bonito. A big bluefish or even a king mackerel. This rig can handle surprisingly high speeds – but it’s prudent to first run the bait boat-side until you get the right speed for the best swimming action. Set this big bait. It has priority. And work the others around it.

The 3 Ounce MYDO Silver Bullet Baitswimmer is for going deep and slow. Bigger baits. More difficult baits like bonito and bluefish. Pronounced swimming action at the right speed.

The 2 Ounce is built for speed and long thin baits like garfish, Japanese mackerel, sardines, pencil squid, cigar mackerel…

Then the smallest in the spread weighs in at an economical 1 Ounce and can swim even smaller baits with style. Sardines. Mackerel. Pencil squid. Long thin baits. These are generally run near the surface and quite close to the boat in the prop wash. Ideal for strip baits. Any speed will do as these guys will pop up into the surface rather than stay down and spin. Makes a highly attractive surface disturbance at higher speeds. Darts and weaves all over the wake but right on top for spectacular surface strikes. You can put a duster or similar in front of these light-weighted guys to add even more flash and surface commotion.

That’s how we roll!

Live Bait Rigging Options

A single hook up front leads the way. From there to a real strong wire hook. Neatly buried in the rear of the hook. For tuna you can rather not put the hook right in the tail because you risk hooking the fish in the bottom jaw. If you place the hook starting at halfway, and the point protrudes out midway between the middle and the tail, you gonna hook the fish in the corner of the mouth. Or even better, the top jaw.

When or if your bait dies, you can just rehook it through both jaws, shake out the rigor mortis and off you go.
