Anyone ever tried using a bird green machine combo in the WTFB center off our coast? Thought about running one saturday to try it out, but would rather not waste space of it’s not worth it…thoughts

I’ve caught mostly dolphin but also wahoo and tuna on a boone bird chain with a little skirt and hook trailing it. I usually only troll during the spring though. Worth a shot for sure.
We’re gonna go look for Wahoo at the Triple ledge saturday, guess I’ll deploy it for a bit then. I know they use them all the time in the NE, but no one ever does here.

You ever tried one with a single bird and a green machine 5-10 ft behind that Larry?

I have and it works. This time of year you can still do well with the blackfin.
Guys out of OIFC swear by a bird and a tiny squid WTFB for tuna’s in the spring. They mostly fish Blackjack and steeples for what its worth.

Blue (full rotation/mirrored wings with bearing swivel) bird with blue/white, pink/blue, or green/yellow ilander and ballyhoo. Those green machines with a pink bird worked well when the yellowfins were still around. Don’t do much with them anymore. Oh, and you’re going to lose that blue bird. SO buy three.

Touche you’re coming next time, ReelTalk said it’s going to be too cold for him to go out until the dolphin arrive. And no the pink and green combo did not work. Nothing else really did though either.

That’s all we ran. Pink birds with green machines off every line. The wahoo LOVED IT.
