Never get tired of listening to this guy. Almost every comment loaded with info.. Thanks

[@thevernonposse]

I could listen to Steve all day lol

[@jamesgbriley4471]

Great job on your explanation of what you need!

[@joedansereau381]

thank you guys....

[@MC-pe8mx]

Awesome info! Thank you.

[@alflores4220]

Very interesting! I always thought the longer the bait was in captivity the weaker it would get, but the "cured" bait info from Capt. Art was really great, I wish I could ask him how it is that an animal in an unnatural confined environment can gain strength, how do they feed them? A week in a receiving tank always seemed like a bad place to live for a fish. Who knew?

[@Sexyduffman420]

If you feed your sardines good stuff while in captivity you can turn them into superbait. We have used the powdered potatoes from the grocery store when we had nothing else. Their favorite feed is Yellowtail roe.

[@alflores4220]

@@Sexyduffman420 So much work goes on "behind the scenes" just to give us a good time, I don't think most of my fellow client/anglers appreciate the work involved in this hobby. Now if I could just figure out why the sportfishing boat's cook's food tastes better on the water, must be the saltwater scent that improves the flavor!

[@Tony67032]

I would change the 1st setup for a slammer 7500 popper setup , the 2nd setup, the FTH15 2 spd or the FTH15XN 2spd can be use from 20 -30 leaders and do great, as you said change change leaders if you are not getting bit

[@tunanorth]

Wait until you see the new Slammer "IV" [gen4] series spinning reels, especially the "DX" [Dealer Exclusive] models!

[@THETERPZ]

I’m the guy with the green braid. 😂😂

[@brianhanel6897]

Most commercial fishing boats used pink line as Thay were using heavier line in clear water

[@steveg3729]

Cool thanks

[@tunanorth]

Please feel free to post follow-up questions.

Please use an audio device. The sound quality is not so good.

[@SearcherSportfishing]

thank you! we have gotten a microphone to use for our speakers, as you'll notice with our more recent (2022) videos.

[@gutshotaz2805]

Thank you!

What are the weight ratings on the 5 rods

[@anthonytrigueiro7896]

What hook size do you use on that go mommy 3 1/2 ounce

[@tunanorth]

Correct spelling is "Gomame". Best hook size for the 3.5 ounce is either a 1/0 or 2/0 Owner ST-66 treble hook.

[@Dave30867]

A video in 360p in 2021 wow i did not think that was acceptable anymore on KZbin . Anyway very good talk. Links to the Rods and Reels would improve this video . I see a lot of rod and reel videos that are no longer available to buy there is no point in these videos in 2022 .

[@SearcherSportfishing]

thank you for your comments and suggestions! this video is over a year old, but if you subscribe, you'll see new videos each thursday. we are always trying to improve!

[@tunanorth]

Even a year later, every rod and reel shown in this video is still available; though localized shortages are possible because they are VERY popular due to the phenomenal bluefin tuna action we are having again this year!

[@thereloaderscloset9096]

Do you ever see anyone using the Penn live liner like in the 8500 or 7500 if they make that size, as there light weight rig or do you think the actual reel internals would hold up to the abuse of slamming the mechanism into gear to stop something like a 30lB to 40LB tuna?

[@tunanorth]

A Spinfisher VI liveliner in the 6500 or 8500 size is fine for school-size tuna. Bear in mind that the last several seasons have seen mixed sizes among the schools, with 30 pounders sometimes mixed with 150 pounders.

[@Sexyduffman420]

I threw a larger live liner in the trash a couple years ago. My dad was using it and hooked a decent tuna, the reel held up for about 5 minutes before it took a giant crap and my dad lost the fish. Back at the dock we bought a saragosa. We paid for tickets again to go back out the next night because my dad had lost his first and only bluefin. Well, we wacked the shit out of em the next day.

[@SearcherSportfishing]

Open to comments now!

[@gcastellon1027]

Weight rating on second rod?

[@tunanorth]

Combo #2 rod is rated 15-40.

[@stoked4fishin478]

What is the rod for th first set-up?

[@tunanorth]

That is an 8-foot conventional-style graphite composite rod, rated for 12-30 pound lines.

[@stoked4fishin478]

Thanks. Does Penn offer anything in that range?

[@TheJwhollis]

Real finicky biting fish.

[@HoofHearted_Eh]

Why would the color of the braid matter if you have 25 to 50 yards of Monofilament topshot and 4 to 6 ft of Flurocarbon leader?

[@SearcherSportfishing]

"A highly visible color like white is important so that the crew can help keep your fish from tangling other lines, the anchor, or rubbing on the bottom of the boat" from Steve C.

[@HoofHearted_Eh]

@@SearcherSportfishing Sorry, I am talking about the fish' point of view. Some people have boats and doesn't care about tangles.

[@tunanorth]

@@HoofHearted_Eh Even private boats can have issues with the fish diving under the boat, around the props, etc. Your call if you want to make it easier on yourself, though it is true that the fish will not really care one way or another.

[@HoofHearted_Eh]

@@tunanorth I guess, i need to rephrase my question....Does it matter to the fish what color of braid you use if you're using 25 to 50 mono topshot? Again, to the fish and not the fisherman.

[@tunanorth]

@@HoofHearted_Eh The fish will not really care one way or another.
