This way the opening pierced through the bait is substantially smaller than that produced by traditionally hooking the bait. Instead of traditionally hooking a bait in the top of the back or through the snout, a bridle enables an elastic to be threaded through the bait-much like stitches through skin. It is critical to keep the baits alive and frisky. This is significant because live pogies, mackerel and bluefish often times require a great deal of time and energy to acquire. This helps keep our baits positioned happily on the surface, rather than dangling in mid air-due to the friction produced by non-roller kite clips.Įmploying an elastic bridle to rig live baits will help to decrease damage to the bait. The rollers enable the main line coming from our 80 and 130 class reels, to slip very easily over the clips with less resistance. Now, with a year of experience under our belts, we found that using kite clips with rollers makes life a bit easier. When we first began fishing kites we employed simple, mediocre kite clips. A reel spooled with 2oo pound dacron can still be fished with a kite, however the bulky dacron (in comparison to the thin diameter of braid) can make it trickier to fish with a kite during light and variable wind conditions. Loading your 50, 80 or 130 class reel with braided line can help make kite fishing more potent and efficient. The extra strength provided by braid will also help ward against snapping off a kite in windy conditions. Essentially this means that the kite attached to braid will lift less weight than the kite attached to dacron. Braided line isn’t going to allow any stretch, as well as providing more line strength with less line diameter. Utilizing a kite rod and reel packed with 100 pound braided line features a few distinct advantages over a reel packed with dacron. However making a few minor adjustments in equipment makes a big difference in how your kite will work in blustery, and also tranquil conditions. Obviously kites need wind to operate and the more breeze there is, the easier it will be to get your kite flying high. We have had success using Boston Big Game kites in addition to Power Chute and Mega Mouth fishing kites. Some which fly with relative ease while some prove more challenging to get a handle on. There are numerous variations of kites available on the market.
