Slide The Bait To The Fish 

Wow mind=blown. Goes to show there’s always plenty to discover in our sport. Don’t get me wrong, I love flicking a lure around. But bait is what made me fall in love with fishing. There’s something to be said about casting a live bait out, sitting back and cracking a beer with the boys and waiting to see what smashes it.

There's nothing new under the sun but catching fish is always a new thrill!!!

Awesome fish...sliding started in South Africa. We have been using this technique for years...we even slide from the surf through the waves...you just change the way you hook your bait and shake your rod so that you slide your bait down. But for the past 2 years I don't even slide anymore, our rods allows you now to cast your bait out far enough. You don't have to slide a live bait out... awesome fish and Lekka video🤟🏻🤙🏻

Been using the slide fishing technique in my bathtub since I was 2 years old to catch rubber duckies and bars of soap. Here we call it zing-zing blubbity blub. Caught my PB bar of Zest soap on that same rig trolling in a hot tub when I was 9 which is currently the undefeated world record.

bro this is OG Hawaiian style

Yeah, we also use this in Portugal. Difference is no one has made a video for people to see how it works, So well done mate!! Spectacular video, short & straight to the point..tkx for sharing 👍🐟👍

This technique has been used in south Africa for decades. Used not only for Edibles such as garrick, kob(Jewfish and shad (Taylor), but it's also used when targeting big sharks using baits to big to cast

I used these with the Team Catfish weight slides to make a ru-vid.comUgkxdmsDj7fQXe77DC0l7P7ua8B3PiESUubM Carolina rig and they were perfect for the ponds I fish. I have also used them to make 3 way rigs and these work perfectly. Haven't had any issues with them snagging in rocks or in weeds yet.

One other way to slide bait: I had an 18" surf rod and would tie a spreader weight and cast as far as it would go. Reel it slowly let it grab the bottom. Set that rod into a holder or wedge in the rocks real good and reel tight, the rod should bend and line remain nice and snug. Then...with a 2nd fighting rod you loop the slider on but attach it to your main line with a rubber band. You can control how deep you want it to go this way. You can choose to reel your bait back to check it at any time and then slide it back out at your discretion. When you get a hookup, the rubber band breaks free from the anchor rod...and you have your fighting rod directly attached to the fish.

I've had a couple of PB's using this technique in NZ. Until today I thought I had discovered it.. I use a wee #9 fly rod to catch the live baits. Always an amazing days fishing.

South African have been using this technique for a long long time 50 years + that I can remember... Great video though thanks for sharing...

Slide fishing is proudly south african. Been doing it forever over here!

Ive had these sliding rigs for years never knew how to rig them up. The way that sinkers rigged up is nut. Good work boys cheers for info

Expert fishing and release guys . Exciting to watch .

That system really works! Very nice catch! Thanks for the video, men!

We do something similar to this in Texas off of the piers and rocks. Big king mackerel, Jack crevalle and tarpon and caught regularly with that rig

Man live baiting can be so exciting when seeing the rod bend after a strike! Great video and keep up the great work Briggsy.

Hawaiian Style...been doing it this way for decades.

Epic video, love the o ring design down the bottom so you can cast twice as far. Fishing shop shut so I made one with a swivel clip, hope it works. Thanks for the video.

Love your enthusiasm fellas.....I came across your video after searching slide baiting (as I am not overly familiar with it) and you explained it perfectly .....plus you guys are awesome for letting that big boy go back home.... you got my sub

That's how we fish for certain species including sharks from a pier here in California. Sweeeeeet action!

Very clever set up for live baiting 👍thanks

We used to do the same back in the 80's fishing from tall piers. Caught a lot of fish.

Funny story... I was looking at this style of fishing a couple of years ago because I have always been more for live/cut bait fishing in the surf, which on the sandy beaches of North Carolina USA is not a problem with getting hung up on weed and corals etc but very different situation here in Bali where if you want to find fish from the surf it means fishing over structure and even if you find a sand trough the current will peel the heaviest weight out like a feather, not to mention that the best beaches for fishing the wind is blowing either down the beach or right in your face at 20mph+, so this trolly system seemed like a pretty cool solution. And then one day while researching it I saw a very early video of Cavy casting off the rocks one morning before heading to work. Anyone remember that video??? So, wow, screw live bait, I'm going to get into poppers, which of course lead me to Morning Tide. So, I actually forgot all about live/cut bait fishing and started learning and gearing up to become a Ledge Lord. Still have the homemade rigs as they're not available in Bali and also experimented with a two rod system so that the trolly line only gets pulled in at the end of the day...all gathering dust. So this is really full circle for me. Thanks Briggsy.

absolutely awesome technique - and execution too! Well done on bot the catch and the video session of it

I’m definitely gonna try that setup this summer 🤙🐟

Love your videos! but yes, we have been slide baiting for as long as I can remember in Hawaii... 50+ years ago, slide baiting off Bamboo ridge, or spitting cave just one of the may places we slide bait... great videos! Aloha!

Here in South Africa we still use this method a lot for bigger fish 🦈

Slide bait is literally the #1 technique in hawaii we use for trevally anywhere from 30-100+ pounds....fire video man

Exilent rigging system , ill be using this for big blue cats in the Mississippi River with live bait Bluegills . Genius bro PROPS

I love this new way of delivering bait. Thanks for the tip and the amazing video! Cheers from Canada.

Used this method in the UK back in the sixties. Caught some big sea bass and cod from the deeper marks and a spectacular cod (27lb) from Rothsall (?) in the North West in 1968/9. Very rarely hear of it now, particularly in UK.

This is awesome never seen seen this kind of fishing before

AKA Hawaiian Ulua (GT) style fishing. Tend to use conventional style ulua rods and conventional reels, Newell/Penn 4/0, etc.

Knew about this style of fishing when I was in the the Marine Corps stationed in North Carolina back in the 80's.

I'm a fishing Nut .... But I've never even seen or heard of that great beauty of a fish. Wow. Thanks.😊

Frothing lol…. Man that was a beast!

Glad to so you guys releasing fish! Well done!

Been doing this type of fishing for over 25 years for ulua....good vid

In South Carolina we call this a Jackson rig! Also google King Mackerel fishing with a trolley rig! Same concept but it uses two rods. One anchor rod and then a fighting rod with a love bait. That how we catch Kong’s from the local Carolina piers.

Awesome technique! Great fishing spot!!

Love a good ol' slide bait.. it's always been such a rad way to get your baits out. Good for mulloway off the stones too!

F*ck yes gents, Get ‘em! Love the method too man. Definitely going to give it a shot this summer. Chur the brothers! Good luck out there and stay safe.

Awe mate we have been fly-lining in the states forever! We use this technique fishing for kingfish and Tarpon off the piers

Always love these salty videos!! All freshwater for me so far, it looks badass!

Just watching this video makes me excited... It's cool. These days, there are only a handful of sliding fishing experts in Korea. I am also interested in this kind of fishing and preparing the equipment.

Awesome fish mate, really good set-up as well.

I need more BRIGGSY in my life!!!

Nice way to fish for the big ones. Here in south Africa we use it for the big sharks and skates

Cool technique slide rigs. Nicely explain boys.

Fisherman on Lake Michigan utilize a similar technique for steelhead. We cast a sinker from the break wall (pier) then attach a larger bobber using a snap swivel. Below the bobber is a piece of frozen shrimp. The trick is to have the wind to your back so the bobber drifts away from you.

incredible big fish dude

Nice! We do it here in Florida for king mackerel from piers and also monster Red drum. We call it a trolley rig.

We been doing this off the piers in N.C. since the 60s. To catch king mac. And Cobia

We do this in Florida but its called a trolley rig and you use a snap swivel to mono to wire and two treble hooks.

Thats pretty neat. I diff gonna try this. Thanks for the vid guys.

Awesome set up

The boys kill it ,know wonder there got Busted Fish on board 👍

this kind of epic moments I was missing... nice video

Slide Baitin "Sliding" ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-HuOtSK3KZf4.html

Yewww epic! Can't beat a livie some days hey, especially on BIG fish 👌 back home here in QLD the live Winter Whiting are gun baits. Great video as always mate

This type of fishing was invented in Hawaii, by 1st generation Japanese Hawaiians in 1900's, it further refined by them in the 30's and 40's, my grandfather use to do this technique. It really got refined in the 60's. We tie our own rigs, use stop rings, 40# lead lines, 10 ounce lead with copper wire "claw", sometimes we use weighted slide rigs, but with out a doubt, the Auzzie slide rig is the best. We used so many variations of poles, fenwicks, half & half, sabres, lamiglass, now a days, hi tech graphites. The reels are conventional Penn 4'O with 50, 60, 80# test. We use this technique to catch ulua at cliff conditions.

Yeeeew , Aaron's a genius comin up with that zip line setup. Lol. Cheers guys.

WOW, i love this type of thinking.

This is amazing, I'm going to try this fishing rig here in northern California for lingcod !

We hit monster GT's in Hawaii with that setup. We also hit ahi, mahi and ono from shore at south point.

We fish with the same technique here is South Africa for targeting big fish like sharks with longer rods and stuff.

South Africans started slide baits.Also we get return and non return slides.Also keep the sinker line short to prevent tangling with your live bait rig.A slide protector also helps tremendously

Dope video this is how we fish in California with the slider rig for threshers 🤙

For me on the Mississippi gulf coast (Northern Gulf of Mexico), I have never seen this before. Looks to be like using an outrigger on the beach. I see those type sinkers at the store but many have a way for the copper or steel prongs to pivot and fold back away from you when pulled hard so you can retrieve the weight and use again.

Here in Melaka ( Malacca ) Malaysia. This type of fishing start on December 2019. Its so popular and most important its working!!! But only use live bait such as mullet, prawn and squid. I would like to recommend it to all anglers at pantai siring, pantai puteri, pantai tanjung bidara & pantai pengkalan balak as well. all over the world can come and visit these places. And dont forget to bring along your cast net. Peace yo!!! # this type of fishing we call it " lantaklah janji tak kumpau "

an old way or a new way it looks a great way to catch a fish! thanks for sharing

Big props for these videos mate 👌 good stuff

That’s a big one nice job I like your set up with the sliding Bates

That's how we fish in Hawaii

Clip & slide is very common over here in South Africa... Nice catch mate... 👍👏

Very glad to see u guys are releasing fish. I mean, we all keep some, a rational amount. But I have seen other guys doing the kind of fishing u are doing (in the rocks, with climbing gear) and because the steep terrain they kill everything to bring them up out of the water... not nice man, not nice, not respectful with life. So well done guys, we can have fun at the same time we are not greedy and indiferent to animal life

It's called ski lift here in Colorado, for Brookies! Haha! Well done!!!

The Best!!!! great guys, catch and release, not everyone applies it especially with big Fish!

que viva la pesca con caña. buenas capturas de los peces gigantes, saludos de perú

Good technique and Beautiful Fish....... 💪🏼🎣✌🏼!

I used to fish like this in the 1810s - we called it sending in Bonaparte.

i learned this from my african friend long ago, it works well// very cool trick to use for getting the bait out there!

Used to slide line anchovies for Bonito, off the Redondo Beach Pier (southern California), back in the early 1960's

Gotta love slide baiting. Aloha from Maui!

We fish for king Salmon the basically same way we call it plunking we use railroad spikes on a light line for weight and they break off .. fun stuff

Been using a similar system for years. Very effective

Salute to you guys. Thank you so much.👊✌👍👍👍

Rippa! Onya Chris, nice Samson.

Cool rig! Nice fish too!

We use this technique in South Africa often...to get bigger baits into deeper water

That was Awesome Thank You 🐟🐟🐟

It's called "Elevator" and so popular in Japan.

Thanks mate! learned something new

What a fun way for that fish to go

awesome super fish 👍👌🐟

We use a variation of the setup in the San Francisco Bay for Salmon. For sinker a pyramid sinker reversed for ground traction but the sliding rig we have a styrofoam float with about 20 feet of line attached to the bait, in your case maybe 5ft so it won’t hook up to the corals. When the float disappears under you have a big fish. Good luck mates 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻. 🖖

In South Africa we use this technique for Garrick and other game fish like Dorado or sharks from the surf
