[@probiethetank8825]

Just found your channel. Love this! Just bought my first boat, and first chance I get I can’t wait to try trolling for my first tuna and mahi

[@minibar7165]

Thanks, what an awesome tutorial, what a great speaking voice also. I’ll put it to the test this weekend. I live on Florida’s Gulf Coast, and Kings, Black-fin tuna, and maybe even Mahi Mahi are all out there, near shore, this time of year October/November ,…

[@Surge1045]

[@JonDunnmusician]

GRACIAS AMIGO!!! EXCELENTE VIDEO Y EXCELENTE EXPLICACION PARA DIFERENCIAR LOS TIPOS DE SEÑUELOS SEGUN LAS ESPECIES QUE QUEREMOS PESCAR.... SALUDOS DESDE CARACAS VENEZUELA!!!

[@SaltyTales]

De nada brother, la idea es compartir conocimiento y ayudar a los demás! Gracias por todo el apoyo!

[@1984KCHEVY]

Excelente, yo pensaba que obligatoriamente tendria que usar un outrigger para soltar mas de tres lineas, mi lancha es pequeña (6mts). voy a probar con esa configuracion y de 4 a 5 lineas. que me asesoras? tengo : una caña 60-80lbs con un reel penn 115h, dos cañas de 50- 60lbs con reel de 50 lbs(penn 112) y dos combos de 30 lbs... como organizarias segun esos señuelos que muestras? ya que tengo varios... Gracias Nuevamente

[@SaltyTales]

Hahahha 6 metros no es chica en ningún lado! Son 30 pies! La mia es como 25 pies! Gracias brother! Trata y no te rindas!

[@alshidhanynasser]

Very good

[@rudy2684]

This video is so Informative! Well done.. A question i have please is this.. I only have a 13 foot boat so i try to boost up as much as i can. If u use a top water rapala or even deep diver, can i use a couple of small teasers with that or do i ruin the way it swims?

[@i1bike]

i do not know if anyone told you this, but man you really look similar to Markos Vidalis, like, the shape of head, the shape of face, the same, wow. If you would shave bald, you would be identical. Funny thing, he is best european fishing youtuber, amazing like you. Great video ! Greetings from Croatia !

[@TrueLineOutdoors]

Great video! What is the best color for Rapala? I’ll be in the Keys trolling and looking at 25 Rapala in blue/silver. Any suggestions? Thank you!!

[@packo3610]

Hey Ninja, I just discovered your channel couple of days ago. Good stuff. Congrats!! I was having a debate with a friend about your heritage roots. My position was that you are Brazilian, is that correct? Thanks and keep up these great videos.

[@SaltyTales]

Cuban! 🤣🤣🤣

[@gustavodiaz4689]

Good video my friend. How ,any miles into the gulf do you recommend and what depth?

[@Trouttdawg]

Thanks!

[@BTLwithTony]

Ninja you ABSOLUTELY need to make a video about Marlin fishing!!!!

[@SaltyTales]

Hahhahaha yeah man. If people want to know I’ll tell all I know!

[@simonadventum]

Gracias a ti Jose!

[@maxmorton44]

Do you recommend a star or lever drag for this type of trolling?

[@Sofreshfishing]

Great video! Wanted to ask you what size and weight is that rapala magnum?

[@jjmembrot8379]

I luv it,, nice lures, I'm hopin to have lures like that sir....interested

[@forrealfishing4300]

Good video mate

[@SaltyTales]

Thanks brother!

[@johnbarton974]

Thank you

[@mrashleyheslop]

ninja my man i like the number A lure :)

[@SaltyTales]

😂😂😂😂

[@peterschnurr7441]

Question for ya: I'm going sailing in Antigua next week and am bringing a couple of trolling rods to target mahi mahi. I have a couple Rapalas (dive to 30') and also some 8" squid skirts that I intend to run. Can you please advise on how you run squid skirts? Do you typically have them skipping along near the surface or are they further down? I have equipment (dipsy divers) that could target lower depths if recommended. Thanks I'm advance. Peter

[@masdbo]

Great instructional video! Some say how to, then just show them catching a bunch of fish with NO details! Thank you. If you had to use one rod only, what would you use?..... for a lure that is

[@sergiomartinez6668]

I just subscribed thank you

[@SaltyTales]

Thanks brother you’re the man

[@RB-vj4dp]

That is a big spread! Any preferences on colors? I’m with Guga - two/three lines is manageable... any more for me and its a tangle dance.

[@SaltyTales]

Give this method a try... I never got a tangle like this... you can almost drive in figure eights and you wont get tangle. Colors on the lures I’ll say white and blue for mahis but is tough... some times they like that and some other times they wont go for it... but white and blue are GOOD place to start!

[@Raider243270]

Great Video THANKS

[@SaltyTales]

Thanks for watching and for the support brother!

[@theQuido]

First, I just found your channel and THANK YOU. Second, I want to make sure I'm understanding- you're putting your feather out first- just one, 250 yards out. Then, with your islanders and plugs, you're putting a pair of each out - one on each side of the boat and then one Rapala close to the boat for a total of 6, is that correct?

[@SaltyTales]

That is 100% correct! Thanks for the support!

[@joshuahall1949]

what is that organizer for the lures called? And where did you get it? Thank you!

[@TRabocse]

Hi very informative video, Thanks. Can you comment on the speed (range) of the boat when trolling your spread. Any suggestions regarding changing speeds ?

[@SaltyTales]

I'll always be running my boat between 6 to 10 mph while doing this kind of fishing, Mahis, Tunas, Kingfish and so on can swim a lot faster than that so it will never be a problem for them to get to those lures whenever they want. About depth here in South Florida I wont bother to stop for any reason before reaching the 1000 feet depth. from there to 2000 feet is a good range, sometimes I'll be out 20 mines from shore... if it doesn't look good I'll keep going east until I change my mind, see a bird, grass or objects on the surface, there I'll always start running south against the current and 90% of the time I find them. Thanks for the support. I'm glad liked the video!

[@TRabocse]

Thank you!

[@spadebraithwaite1762]

This guy really gives me the feeling that he knows what he's talking about.

[@andyestrada229]

Coño tremendo video , My first time seeing your video, First of all Muchas Gracias Brother!!! Thank you very much for sharing this information, I will be Kayak Fishing here on the Texas Coast, I will have at least two rods for Lures and one for perhaps live bait or lure as well for this set up would you recommend a Feather or two, and one Islander,, also what LB of Mono are you using to tie the lure? your thoughts are appreciated Salty.

[@SaltyTales]

Gracias brother! It will all depend of what you are targeting, if you are going for kingfish I'll go with the live bait and the rapalas, if you are looking for tuna then the feathers will work, dark colors, tuna love feathers, and if looking for mahi then the bullets are awesome as well as the feathers... The other thing you can do is to mix it up a little bit and if nothing happen for some time be ready to change and improvise. Thanks for the support and kind words!

[@andyestrada229]

Salty Tales it will be mostly Kings and Dorado or Mahi, Tunas are too far out , I can get 4-5 miles at most in about 65 feet of water the Texas Coast flat but some small platform rigs are within 3-5 mile range

[@SaltyTales]

Nice man! At that range we target kings and sometimes tuna comes down shallow too... Mahis are more difficult to find at that range here. So start trolling with live bait and rapalas, those are great for kings, also remember that kings go deeper as the day progress, early in the morning they will be at top water and going deeper and at about 10 AM they'll be biting at 20 to 40 ft down. Please send me a photo on FB!

[@andyestrada229]

Salty Tales awesome Brother I will try this, Thank you again for sharing your knowledge it’s appreciated, Suerte Brother!

[@SaltyTales]

Good luck brother and thanks for all the support!

[@CurtisCooper]

What kind of line and what pound test do your recommend using for this trolling?

[@TxDragon55]

I have a 43 ft POST so what type of set do you recommend? I am new at this so any advise would be great.

[@SaltyTales]

Man with a 43er you can do a lot of stuff! But if you are only starting on trolling start with the same 6 rods layout I explained here... That will give you fish and time to learn and get better on it. Once you know what to do you can have a nice 12 rods setup with outrigger behind your boat and be a killer!! Go to 1500 feet and start looking for grass, birds or anything else on the water and once you find it troll around it up and down for a while, you’ll catch some fish for sure!

[@KSpides53]

I am going to take my first shot at it in the coming weeks....what should my trolling speed be?

[@chemopia]

Can I only troll one line from a sailboat? We travel 6 kts. Or should I get a second reel and place it too? Which bait and line would you suggest for only one? I sail south Fl.

[@Fishing_WithChris]

How many pound leader do you use for the islander?

[@GameDevHQ]

the islanders, can you do it without bait as well?

[@robertolashley2608]

I would like to know ,florocarbon line can it withstand king fish bites, i normally use wire leaders can you tell me pros and cons

[@tejanissimo]

Ahora para que se los quite...estoy viendo tu primer video

[@SaltyTales]

Jajaja gracias!

[@troyb9609]

Can you recommend a good boat ramp near Hillsboro Inlet that allows overnight parking Hillsborough Inlet they say is very Danger was trying to avoid that one or even south of Hillsboro Inlet would be good
