Night fishing with Peter Tuinman.. We went fishing with 4, in the open fishing boat with 2x 175hp, went out into sea where we fished next to a waiting/just floating around big oiltanker with lights..
FISHING BY NIGHT
Fishing Adventures Bonaire can take you fishing at night near the oil tankers lying offshore. We target the fish that accumulates around the fully lit oil tankers. The illumination attracts the baitfish which in turn attracts the bigger fish. The boat is specially modified to get the best results for these trips with the necessary equipment and lighting. We catch mostly blackfin and Yellowfin tuna. Sometimes the occasional wahoo wants to have a go as well. We leave the dock in the evening and head out at cruising speed towards the tankers. Once we arrive, Jigging can be very effective, just like catching fish with surface lures.
Departure is at 19.00 hrs from Plaza Marina Kralendijk with the Fishfull Thinking.
How to Jig: Steps
If you are learning how to jig, here are some simple steps:
- Cast out and let your jig hook sink to the bottom.
- Count a few seconds or wait until you feel the spoon hit the bottom.
- Snap or pop your wrist and rod tip up quickly a short distance.
- Let the lure drop back to the bottom.
- You can jig up and down, side to side or up and down and sideways.
- Reel down a little bit to keep the line tight in case of a strike.
- Repeat.
Saltwater Jigging
Jigging lures, or jigs, are some of the most versatile lures in that they can be used in just about any place you find fish. Jigs comes in all shapes, colors, styles and weights and can be fished in a variety of different manners so that they mimic bait fish. The two most common jigs are probably the buck tail jig and the vertical jig. Depending on the species you want to catch, it’s important to learn the difference between the two so you can understand, for example, the best jig for bass fishing.A buck tail jig will typically consist of a lead head, that can be a variety of different shapes and sizes, which is molded onto a hook and has hair-like material tied to the bottom of the jig head. This hair-like material is where the name 'buck tail' comes from because many buck tail jigs are made using hair from a deer. The buck tail hair and jig head come in a variety of different colors. These buck tail jigs can be fished by themselves or they can be rigged with a rubber worm, live shrimp or other natural baits like strips of fish.
A vertical jig, or speed jig, is made of a long and slender piece of lead or metal that cuts through the water mimicking an injured baitfish. Vertical jigs will have one or more dangling hooks attached to a split ring which can be attached to the top or the bottom of the jig. Vertical jigs range anywhere from 1/8oz up to 14oz and are also referred to as "butterfly jigs."
To understand how to fish with jigs, it is important that the angler constantly jig the lure up and down by continually lifting and lowering the rod tip. One good method when learning how to jig is to drop the jig all the way down to the bottom and with a very rapid retrieval, twitch the rod tip erratically until the jig comes to the surface and repeat. No matter which type of jig you are using, knowing how to set up a jig is important. That means matching the weight of each jig to the depth at which you are fishing. Deeper water will require heavier jigs to reach the bottom. It is also important to take the tides and current into consideration when choosing your jig weight.
And in my fridge for later...
Yellowfins are able to escape most predators,
because unlike most fish,
tuna are warm-blooded, and their warm muscles make them extremely strong swimmers,
with yellowfin tuna reaching "speeds of up to 50 miles per hour". (They can navigate enormous distances, sometimes crossing entire oceans.)[5]
