Check the thread on Josh Temple's board about "rigging skippies for cows".

He's used this tool for smaller baits and was supposed to try them for skipjack this wknd. waiting to see if he did and what his impression was.

YES, I HAVE FISHED THE BRIDLES IN "REAL WORLD" SITUATIONS. THE FELLOW WHO INVENTED AND MAKES THEM IS AN OLD FRIEND AND I WAS ACTUALLY WITH HIM ABOUT FIVE YEARS AGO WHEN HE FIRST STARTED TALKING ABOUT THE IDEA. SEVERAL OF MY GUYS AND I FISHED THE PROTOTYPES AND CAUGHT PLENTY OF FISH ON THEM LONG BEFORE THEY CAME ON THE MARKET. THEY HAVE ALSO BEEN USED EXTENSIVELY AND VERY SUCCESSULLY BY CHRIS BADSY, DAVID BRACKMANN AND THEIR "REELAX" TEAM THAT HAD THOSE HUGE RELEASE DAYS DOWN IN CABO LAST SEASON. THAT HAPPENS TO BE A MATTER OF PUBLIC RECORD.

AS I NOTED, I HAVEN'T USED THE EXTRA LARGE MODELS ON SKIPJACKS AND TUNAS, WHICH IS WHY I CONSULTED WITH THE MANUFACTURER CONCERNING THAT ISSUE.

I DON'T GO AROUND RECOMMENDING THINGS THAT I AM NOT CERTAIN OF, BRICE. YOUR QUESTION SEEMS TO SUGGEST OTHERWISE, OR AT THE VERY LEAST, IT COULD HAVE BEEN PUT WITH A BIT LESS OF THAT SORT OF SLANT TO IT. I GUESS THAT YOU ARE TOO YOUNG TO KNOW ABOUT ME AND MY PROFESSIONAL STANDARDS AND THE RIGHT WAYS TO ASK QUESTIONS WITHOUT THAT SORT OF "DO YOU REALLY KNOW WHAT YOU'RE TALKING ABOUT?" SMELL TO IT YET. INTENDED OR UNINTENDED DOESN'T MATTER. BUT AGAIN, CONSIDERING YOUR AGE AND LIMITED TIME AROUND FISHING AND THOSE WHO HAVE, INCLUDING THIS OLD CODGER, I AM TRYING TO GIVE YOU THE BENEFIT OF THE DOUBT AND SO, HERE IS YOUR ANSWER, NICE AND POLITE.
