Any Green Backs - Bait Ideas

[Reel Anxious]

[QUOTE=King Saba;235064]I haven't done much mac fishing from my kayak, but a mac is a mac and I've found that a small knife jig sometimes gets them going. 3/4-1oz. Flashier the better from what I've found.

Also, try adding this small bait cage to the bottom of your sabikis with some ki
nd of smelly bait.[/QUO
Did you find this locally? I found it online. THX

Online unfortunately? You can probably get it locally if you shop around some mom and pop Asian tackle shops.

I overlooked your post at first Reel Anxious. Yeah these are cheaper alternatives and work well in their own way. I've seen these for cheap at Asian markets maybe less than a buck each.

Just saw them and they are quite small. Will try something.

RE: small bait cage for the bottom of a sabiki ...

Should be easy enough to improvise. What would work?

A tea ball? ... a 1C tupperware punched full of holes?
a small size plastic water bottle punched full of holes?


thinking ...

I think the water bottle idea has possibilities.

What about a can of cat food punched full of holes with an old fashioned punch-type can opener? clip your line to the finger-puller on the lid.
