Where do you run your Blue/White Islander and Why???

[frankypettolina]

Behind the green squids on the right teaser.

Box I agree with you on the pattern. Billfishing = 4 dinks and 1 big ballyhoo. Meat fishing = as many medium hoos as can fit behind the boat (and maybe a bar in the middle).

Like BTH said, they work very good on the planer rod as well.

Me and Brian have been using one on the planer rod all year. It is an Ilander head that I retied with Flashabou and mylar flash, then Iland blue hair and crystal hair and then some more mylar flash on the back side.

It has worked very well for us.

As most of you may know....

Flashabou I use is very thin mylar tinsel used with tieing fly's. They have lots of different colors.

Mirage is pretty much the same thing, just another brand name.

Mainly off my center rigger positioned just beyond the long riggers. Used it with a bird and without so far this year and it has caught some nice fish for me. Buff Yellowfins and a nice Wahoo. This bait is a blue/white flasher...

Also run it on my planer for Bluefins or wahoos.

To be honest, I have not found a bad place to run them but like was said on another post I think, I like a select or a horse bally on them. For medium ballys, mainly Trackers, Sailures and Sea stars (awesome bait)...as well as the standard witch or naked.

Not populuar south of VA but I've even run BW Ilander behind my large 15" blue/white squid bars and they get pounded.
