Told you to fly a kite … They won’t fly near them … 
I went by walmart yesterday to get my kid a kite, BUT THEY DONT SELL THEM!
Well … I mean … okay … If that’s all you wanna do then go to Michael’s or Hobby Lobby and get a kids kite …
But if you really want to dual purpose, then you need a “Fishing” Kite … because then you can run baits off of it …
I would suggest a light to medium wind Kite … you’ll also need release clips and a Trident style rod holder (we have two) …
Then you can run them like this … There’s really not much to it … BUT … you really should be in open water for obvious reasons …

For the record the previously posted method was for Mahi …
This is the Sailfish setup …

WIND!!! Holy ****. Bout to pack it up, try a cove then head to the dock. Wife caught her first striper (6.5) and first Largemouth. She woulda caught a 5lb fish too but it happen to be on while still fighting her first fish

welllll, i ended up building one for the kid…maybe i can scale it up and make one for fishing…

Well now … never had to weld a kite together before …
Fun side note … These are $12 for the pair on Amazon and you can tie one to each Redi-Rig … LOLOL

yeah, as my wife always says, i tend to over do things…
that would look terrific having a half dozen of those flying off the back of my boat in lake murray.
and those looks perfect for attaching a helium balloon to the inside of them as well
I can’t wait to go buy 3 or 4 kites to pull off the t-top… imagine the attention pulling 16 poles and 4 kites!! LMAO!!

Don’t forget about putting out riggers out also .
Nice to get out solo with the bride. She did great on her first striper and bass. Wind kicked our butt and iPilot N setting no match. Not even dead into the wind. Until next time!
