Oh I see lol, you should attach an underwater camera to the bird facing the dangling squids, bet you could get some nice breach shots, just an idea

Fishing a green stick has always fascinated me, as I have always wanted to fish one. Do you guys ever try those yummee flying fish on a green stick for yellowfin.

iv got a friend that owns a dragger out of scituate, they rig it up once a year with a green stick to head out to canyons for a 3 day trip or so to oceanographers....said they had yellowfin on every squid.

OK my answers are short cuz my hunt and peck typing is real bad.... I took some photos of some greenstick gear to give you and idea...

Here is bait number one farthest back from boat and a KILLING machine. Along side a knife for size.

Here is the Bird it is trailed by a poly ball so you can find it should it break off. and also so you dont run it over when corkscrewing after the hook up!

holy shit that bird is huge. Now all the heavy gear makes sense.

When a bluefin hits this thing sh*t comes unglued quick, the bandit reel spins like the hub of an 18 wheeler screaming down the fast lane, I have had doubles hit it and tear the whole rig to shreds!!!!!
