What is the best dredge?

[Ktrain]

Lookin' at pickin' up a dredge, like to get some opinions..........


Thanks in advance

the weedless kind

Seriously though - What kind of fishing are you doing?

There are lots of options - Stripteaser Dredges are pretty simple and fairly cheap, Dredges with plastic on them work fairly well, if you are tournament fishing, there is nothing like natural...

How much room do you have to store it? Tournament Cable makes a "bucket teaser" that is a dredge in a 5 gal bucket... Keeps all of the loose stuff contained.

Before you purchase any dredge there are many things to consider.

Size of your boat and the beam, do you want to pull it from a bridge teaser reel off the out-riggers, from a dedicated dredge rod, down rigger or cleat?

There are quite a few options in dredge teaser and the baits you will rig them with. Dredge teaser definitely produce but you should be using one that fits your boat and crew's capabilities.

There are the massive 60" 8-arm on one end of the spectrum down to the 10" triple bucket dredges on the other end and many choices in between. Do a lot of research before you buy anything.

I like to pull a double mullet drege.

I don't know much about dredges...but I do know who does....give POON MAN a PM and I'm sure he'd be happy to speak to you about it in detail. He came up with a dredge that can be "folded" so that it saves space. It's quite a neat little invention.

yes....the Offshore Innovations CTi collapsible titanium dredge is the shit. arm it with just about anything.....natural bait, hologram strips, rubber mullet, or the hottest thing here lately is lots and lots of mylar ribbonfish skirts.
