  • 2020, Angling Techniques for Dolphin Fishing

    When the school of dolphin shows up behind your boat after you hook that first fish, you better be ready. This is that do or die moment where your dolphin fishing technique better be polished. There is a rotation style system that will allow you to catch every single fish that appears. What I am referencing takes your dolphin fishing and distills it down to an exact science. You need to first understand the critical importance of having steady food to keep these pelagic food vacuums happy. This involves menhaden oil, chum and plenty of chunks. If you haven't seen our video on steady food, be sure to watch that one. Setting up a food chain to keep the dolphin interested is key. With your first fish solidly hooked and secured in a rod holder within easy view of the boat, the festivities begin. It is a simple process of drawing a single fish away from the school with a single chunk tossed several feet away from the school. With that fish moving away from the school, you send out your hooked bait. You get that fish gaffed and the next loan chunk is sent out along with a hooked bait. This is a methodical system and is explained in full detail with this In The Spread dolphin fishing video. Take your time to really understand how this rotation method will help you catch a boat load of good eats. The most important element of this dolphin fishing technique is the steady food supply that holds the school to the transom of your boat. It works for both big sport fishers and center consoles. Learn this simple system and implement into your program. You will not be disappointed.
