#10793, "RE: Pushing the envelope"
In response to In response to 0


          

I was thinking about Orcas...Killer whales. I've seen documentary on them eating blue and grey whales. A pack of killer whales gangs up on a whale, holds it down so it literally suffocates, etc. Pretty gnarly those orcas.

You would have really hard time making a bigbait shaped like blue whale, and certainly couldn't cast it. However, I think it is feasible to hook a Killer Whale on a big giant lure made to look like a blue or gray whale or even a giant squid?

I'm no science/biologist type, but seems to me like there are some mind blowing applications of the bigbaits, if someone really wanted to get crazy.

How about fishing for giant crocodiles with antelope/water buffalo/african game baits?

How about fishing for bass using baby crocodile/gator baits?

Anyway, this subject fascinates me for some reason. The bigbaits open a lot of doors on doing things that have never been done.

Question: What is the absolute heaviest lure/rig you know people cast and retrieve and regularly catch fish? I mean, do guys throw 2 lb iron jigs for big tuna? What is the heaviest bait you know that guys are actually fishing and catching, salt or freshwater of course? Not live bait. Capt G, you're input on fishing with a 75 pound tuna for big marlin is sick. I'm honestly interested to know who throws the biggest of the big lures? Muskie guys? Tuna guys? Grouper? Halibut? Marlin guys?
