4. Notkunarleiðbeiningar
The Masterpro Flippy Floppy Offshore Squid Teaser is designed for offshore trolling to attract marlin and tuna.
Deployment and Trolling:
- Staðsetning: Deploy the teaser at a distance behind the boat where it can create maximum surface disturbance without interfering with your fishing lines. The birds are designed to splash and dart, simulating fleeing baitfish.
- Trolling Speed: Experiment with various trolling speeds to find the optimal action for the teaser. Generally, speeds between 6-10 knots are effective for offshore trolling, but adjust based on sea conditions and target species behavior. The teaser should be skipping and splashing on the surface.
- Athugun: Continuously observe the teaser's action. The lifelike squid chain presentation should appear natural in the water, mimicking a school of squid.
- Aðdráttarafl: The primary goal of the teaser is to draw predatory fish closer to your spread, where they can then be enticed to strike your baited hooks or lures.
5. Viðhald
Proper maintenance will extend the life and effectiveness of your Masterpro Flippy Floppy Offshore Squid Teaser.
Eftir hverja notkun:
- Skolaðu vandlega: After each fishing trip, rinse the entire teaser with fresh water to remove salt, sand, and any debris. This prevents corrosion and material degradation.
- Loftþurrkur: Allow the teaser to air dry completely in a shaded, well-ventilated area before storing. Do not store wet.
Geymsla:
- Kaldur, þurr staður: Store the teaser in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures. Prolonged exposure to UV light can degrade the rubber and plastic components.
- Koma í veg fyrir flækju: Store the teaser in a way that prevents the lines and squids from tangling, such as coiling the leader neatly or using a dedicated storage bag.
Reglubundin skoðun:
- Leiðtogi: Regularly check the 400lb shock leader for any nicks, abrasions, or signs of weakening. Replace if necessary.
- Swivel and Snap: Ensure the 300lb ball bearing swivel rotates freely and the snap mechanism is secure and not corroded. Lubricate with a marine-grade lubricant if needed.
- Squids and Birds: Inspect the rubber squids and PP birds for tears, cracks, or significant damage. While built to be durable, replacement may be necessary if integrity is compromised.
