How to Catch Deep Tuna Live Bait Rig - Rubber Band Rig

- Quick Tutorial from Captain Dave Hansen on how to catch tuna in deep waters with the "rubber band technique".This is a good strategy to quickly present your live bait to the tuna that are 60 to even 100+ ft of water. Applying the weight to the fishing line with a rubber band does not weaken the line versus tying the weight directly to the line.

@bdoutdoors With this set up without a swivel, your leader and bait will not become wrapped up in the main line on the way down? Legitimate question, not being smart....I have just had no success trying to drop these type of rigs to grouper/snapper on gulf coast.
Jerry Menard you have to let it sink slow otherwise the bait will twist around your main line.
@@raceprovenmotors Great tip! You also want to sink it slow, so the the live bait is best preserved on the hook.
What size torpedo do you go with...?
@@UFwhoknOws excellent question , most commonly 3-4 oz weights are used. really depends on the current for that particular day
First person to actually show using a rubberband. So many videos where people assume. Great info. Researching for my first time offshore in future. You got a new sub!
I like mine vertical to the line, seems like these helicopter on down and collect numerous lines with it. I seem to be the lucky one to always get collected! Tight lines!👍
Great video! Where going next weekend to try our luck on these BFT. Thanks for the advise and keep the videos coming.
Thank you Jessi! We wish you luck on your trip. We were also using 40lb -50 lb floro leader, with a 2/0 circle hook
Great video - very clear. Thanks buddy...
Thanks!
What if I want my sinker back? Run a line from it to another rod?
Nice job and great tip!. I use the same trick when trolling for King Mackerel....
Like it !!! Plain and simple GOOD information. Thanks.
Thank you sir!
Going to try this on big eye next year when I go out again. Thanks!
Rad! Let us know how it goes!
Great tips Dave!
Thank you 🙏
I have less line twist when I attach the rubber band to the line with a half hitch, then run the free end of the rubber band through the top eye of the weight. I wrap the rubber band around the weight and line like a barber pole. I take the free end of the band once again and pass it through the bottom eye of the weight and finally pass the hook through the loop of the rubber band that is peeking out of the bottom eye of the weight. It keeps the entire length of the sinker pinned to the line so there's nothing swinging/spinning.
It sounds interesting....Can you make a short video showing how to do it? I couldn´t understand the steps you explained since english is not my first language
Great tip! Thanks!
Awsome video very informative! Would this rig up work well if you troll dead bait? If not, do you have any link for how to troll dead bait?
Do you only nose hook or do you use a stinger rig as well?
Good question. For the sinker rig we fish a single circle hook and nose hook the bait. The size of the hook is determined by the bait (usually between 1/0 to 4/0) and no stinger hook is required.
I've had those big rubber band burn the line then a fish streaks off so watch out it burned about 100 feet of 200 Jenki mono so if that rubber band slips because it's not tight or water lubes it up ,watch out ,ya use black bands have everything black
An u got to watch out it it gets caught in the first roller guide an will dry out an burn line too ,during an 2 hour plus fight .
What size weight do you use?
o cool thank you capitan
Good luck!
Thank you for your explanation. Specially, when you said no fish will swim backwards..really easy to understand, hahaha! Thank you so much.
Trumpet Fish do!
@@markbass9402 Wow~ I didn't know that!
How fast should I let the line out while the sinker is going down to depth? Slowly or really fast?
What test lb of flourcarbon would be good for those 60 to 100 pound tuna?
60lb
18-24” of fluoro proceeds to show 3-4’
Paint the sinker black. We lose a lot of sinkers due to it being hit, especially torpedoes, and if they’re new and shiny.
What ounce weight would you want to use for this
Thanks for the new idea trying that tomorrow
sorry but i tried your rigging many times with different rubber bands , got down but sinker never came off after fighting yellow pinto 70 lbs
Thumb your spool to slow it down...so ur bait doesnt tangle back to main line.
That isn’t enough leader. We have lost fish from tail wack when using too short of leader. Just my 2 cents
THIS IS “THE HOW TO TANGLE YOUR LINE THE FUCK UP rig” INCORRECT SINKER RIG
How many ounces for the sinker?
depends on current. Usually a 2-4 oz sinker would do.
@@bdoutdoorsdotcom-m4p thank you. The bluefin have shown up again this past week locally.
never comes off , sorry i tried it numerous times with different size rubber band caught fish but sinker never came off
Cool
hope this helps you!
Don't use those big rubber bands ,I've had those stay in place an the fish smoked about 100 ft in a second ,an second if it stays on the line it will catch in ur top eye an dry the line out an when ur swevul will get stuck an could lose a fish ,
Hayes Way
But I'll loose my sinker
That's over 3 ft of flouro btw...
So that's like donating lead to the ocean, but it's worth it for the tuna.
And we wonder about the high heavy metal content in the water... Each line caught tuna adds a 6 oz led into our oceans... Great... Use another rubber band and go over the hook, pull it up and this way you won't lose the weight.
haha you're hilarious
