If you really want to see kite fishing as an art form take a trip to Miami and go sailfishing. These guys are amazing, they will put out 6 lines on two kites with live bait. We went sailfishing last year and went 20-25 in 3 days of fishing and boy was it work. Keeping the baits in the water all day is a chore in itself, but presentation is everything.

Kite fishing is a great way to tuna fish becuase it allows you to fish with heavy leader without spooking the fish and it allows the bait to take a more natural look. Guys up here in the northeast will kite fish for giant bluefins ranging up to 1,000 lbs with live bluefish. Its insane
