When do we get to see the flyline mackerel / Yellowtail video?

I will leave that to the Water Wolf guys. I am content to scour the bottom.

It appeared at some times that you were slowly drifting and dragging the bait. I appreciate the time you took to do this and then share it here.

I do use a 3-way swivel, but you don't often see it. The black thing you are seeing is the release clip from my downrigger. There are lots of issues getting a bait down and swimming properly with all this other crap to deal with. Then you have to keep it swimming well until you decide to bring it all back up and reset. Front hooks turn and trap hooks catch on the leader. Then there are the Cormorants, Octopus, Lizzard Fish and Sea Lions that like to taste your bait. Among a bunch of other things like the bait being so hyper that it kills itself yanking on your sinker.
