PaddyT Posted August 20, 2017 Share Posted August 20, 2017 What do you mean by tied to your boat? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
recurve Posted August 20, 2017 Share Posted August 20, 2017 I guess a Drogue or Sea Anchor would act as a Fad?. Have also wondered if taking some palm fronds out there and having them attached to act as a Fad is legal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We use a Buoy with a flag on the surface with a rope dropped down abt 2m with a burley bucket and metal reflectors. Use them with great success in broome with palagics. We tie it off abt 5-10m away from boat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
