#Fishing dredge plus
To do it right, you need 150 to 200 fresh mullet per day, 150 to 200 fresh ballyhoo per day for the dredges, plus another 100 for hook baits, two hardworking deckhands and a tower man to help see fish on the dredges. Richard Gibson Rigging Up for Dredge Fishing You need a captain who can work a minimum of two bridge teaser reels. However, we have had regular snap swivels pull down and ultimately fail. With the large diameter of the mono, we have never had one open up or fail, and the quality ball bearing helps reduce the twisting of the mono as the dredge occasionally spins. We use the escape-proof leg-splitter-style swivels because they are smaller and stronger than a 400-pound snap swivel. In our case, we have the 600-pound mono wrapped extra hard around the rigger twice and crimped with a loop that we then connect to the swivel that is on the end of the teaser line. The teaser line goes through that pulley and ring, and goes to the base of the outrigger. We then thread the line through a stainless ring that has a line tied to it going to the cockpit so the deckhands can pull the dredge over to the boat when checking it for grass, clearing or replacing a bait. The teaser line goes through that pulley, then we take it through a larger pulley that has a 3-foot section of the Momoi mono coming off it that connects to a wind-on barrel swivel, then to the dredge with a 400-pound Momoi escape-proof leg-splitter swivel.

#Fishing dredge full
To start, be sure you have a big back bar for your outrigger there is a lot of pressure on it when in full dredge mode.Ībove is a guide for setting up your dredge. Because of the size of the dredge and the strain that they create when pulled through the water at 5 or 6 knots or faster, you need to have beefy gear to hold them and a pulley system to help retrieve them.
No matter whether you are pulling your dredges from the cockpit for the crew to deal with or from the bridge for the captain to control, they need to connect to the dredge basically the same way. We hard wire and put them in the tower for retrieving our teasers when marlin fishing from up top. We use the Super S-9R, which comes with wireless or hard-wired remotes. They are rigged with Dacron backing and 300-pound extra-hard mono spliced into them. We also have a set of 50 Internationals mounted along with the electric reels for pulling our squid chains. From the bridge, most top captains choose the Miya Epoch Super S-9 reel spooled with Dacron and spliced with 400-pound mono into the Dacron.
