Trolling is one of the most popular methods of targeting saltwater pelagics. Until recent, dredge fishing was considered to be a technique reserved exclusively for sportfish yachts. However, modern technology has made the idea of targeting billfish and other pelagics with dredges on a center console a reality! This video is a collaboration together with Mike Calabrese, owner inventor of Fire Tailz dredge baits and Captain Art Sapp of Native Son Sportfishing Charters.
The main focus in this video is a dredge fishing 101 for viewers on how to deploy a dredge from your center console boat. Gemlux, has developed an extremely effective dredge boom rod made from quality component and easily capable of handling the load from a double or triple natural bait or artificial bait dredge. Pair that with the LP 1200 electric reel and you have yourself the ultimate center console dredge boom rod. There are other more inexpensive electric reels on the market, however, if you want the highest quality and the most reliable, LP is the only way to go. Enjoy the video and feel free to drop a comment if you have any additional questions on dredge fishing. Thanks to Mike & Art for joining us.
