Great video! Went on a 3 day couple weeks ago. My son got a180 lb BFT and 2 smaller models. On our hundred pound night jig rigs we used 100 feet of mono tied to braid with 200 lb. bite leader. I noticed several anglers tying short bite leader direct to braid. My son got cut off twice by braid rubbing on his mono top-shot. What do you think?

[@ahmadghanem2414]

I rig mine the same way you did. I had not had an issue yet , hopefully, never

[@fishsandiego9043]

Braid straight to your swivel with a short bite leader works well but there is no stretch so you feel everything with no shock absorption. Having 100’ of mono may be a good idea in rough weather because the mono will stretch during a big roll from swell but like you mentioned if another anglers braid rubs on your mono it may cut you off. Also personally i try to have as few connections as possible in my line

[@dojo1249]

Won't have that problem on the northeast head boats. Mono topshot must be 100 yards then to braid at the crews discretion only. Crews here don't like to harm the braid does to hands, gear and mono line

People are fishing heavier line not for the fish, but for the other fisherman :)

[@pixcix4287]

When you change out your assist hooks what size do you recommend for the replacement hooks?

[@FishTheLegend]

@@pixcix4287 depends on the jig but usually anywhere from 5/0 and upwards

Nate looked just like a side hooked tuna!

[@fishslayersocal9345]

Headed out on the legend next month 8-11th what fishing set ups are recommended? Thanks in advance

[@FishTheLegend]

At a minimum, 30-40# flyline set up & 80-100# night time fishing/sinker rig set up. You can check out our tuna recommendations here kzbin.info/www/bejne/l5bammR-iLOsoMUsi=sjP3ugFND2ywHCpv & flyline set ups here kzbin.info/www/bejne/i6uVlYGcfst6aa8si=oobnsB6F40LlDdj8

[@jackg8478]

What hook do you recommend for the 180g tungsten jigs? Treble? Double assist? Sizes

[@FishTheLegend]

Usually 2/0 or 3/0 double or single assist hook

[@fishslayersocal9345]

I’m gearing up for the 8th-11th . What pound leader should I add to the arsenal?

[@FishTheLegend]

@@fishslayersocal9345 big picture, 30-40 flyline, around 60 lb sinker rig, 80-100 lb for night time

[@mrmidnight32]

Who makes that 220g tungsten lure?

[@FishTheLegend]

JF fishing

[@tr0y.a_93]

where do you buy the tungsten lures?

[@FishTheLegend]

Local tackle shops are trying to keep them in supply, but they are selling out quickly. I'd call ahead & ask. Otherwise ebay is where a lot of deckhands & captains are buying them right now.

[@fishbigfishchris]

Please explain how these tungsten jigs can be through wire? Tungsten melts at 6,000 degrees and steel melts at 2,500.

[@CP-vi6jv]

Magic

[@FishTheLegend]

None of them are through wire, that I know of anyway!

[@cameronpeterson896]

@@FishTheLegendis that an issue with tungsten’s brittleness?

[@FishTheLegend]

@@cameronpeterson896 not in our experience, so far anyway! This metal is quite strong, and extremely small compared to longer jigs. If you are concerned, you can always “through wire” it yourself by having your line tied from your leader to attach to the assist hook itself, that way in case the jig does fall off, you still have a complete system.

[@petera1117]

Tungsten……1.7x the weight and price compared to lead. I hate losing a 1/4 oz tungsten bullet weight. Just got a 500g bft. I think I need another 300g and some tungsten lures.

[@FishTheLegend]

Check out our latest video, it might be helpful as you choose jigs for your next trip!

[@otroflores91]

I'll wait for then to hit the used market. Can't justify the price new.

[@FishTheLegend]

Totally fair! Everybody has different pockets haha

[@gpena383]

Jigs that catch fishermen and not fish. lol.

[@fishsandiego9043]

Well i dropped down a 220 gram tungsten 3 times on my last trip and hooked 3 fish

[@cameronpeterson896]

Usually I agree, but Eddie bombs and tungsten jigs have been a game changer for bluefin. You need to get deep with strong current while they’re keyed in on small baits. Legit game changer in my opinion

[@FishTheLegend]

We agree!
