Jet Ski Fishing is gaining some growth worldwide and RAILBLAZA products are the perfect addition, just like kayaks and small boats, our system helps anglers maintain a practical workspace in such a small space.  NZ Jet Ski angler Dave Yeung shared his snapper trolling set up with us on Instagram. Trolling hard body deep diving lures at slow speeds is a very effective way to catch snapper and usually big ones!

Products used

• Rodholder II
• StarPort Kit
• Rodholder Extender

” I set the drag just right (as light as possible) so if I go from trolling 7kms to 10kms the line will peel out”

Dave is trolling lures over shallow reefs which is a very effective way to lure a snapper out of its shelter. The important thing to note here is Dave has the drag pressure set carefully to remove the risk of damage or gear loss. Starports have been fitted with reinforcing plates behind by the guys at JFK Powersports in Auckland. 

Dave has used the new Rod Holder extenders to get the trolling rods in position in front of him. The extenders allow the rods to spread further separating the lures.
