I understand kil is putting it together, but sometimes you have to match the bait with the food. I know some poeple get there kicks fishing lures but if they dont want lures why limit yourself to these methods only. I think this trip will be great with plenty of fish caught as all the people on board know how to fish.


Good luck tom and ksong.

Hey Jared!

If I know the rest of this crew correctly, any bait -live, dead or chunk- will not be an option, probably not even any on the boat! LOL

The trip will most likely be a challenge/skill test/fishery education for most of these guys to learn and experience as much as possible, in 80 fishing hours, on what, when, where, and how to target, hook, catch -but only using artificial means- all available species possible for the time of year and conditions at the time of the trip.

I prefer using artificial baits when I fish, but fully respect and appreciate the different skill set needed to successfully fish bait, such as rigging, terminal gear, and presentation.

I'm a pretty flexible guy and will go with the rest of the crew to use whatever tactics and methods that the conditions dictate.

I've never been on an "all artificial" charter, but have noticed lately that they are becoming popular.
