InTheBite’s annual Tackle Issue is brimming with great tips on ways to make your spread more effective. We’ve gathered some of the leading figures in the industry to share their expertise on the history, trends, and usage of tackle.
To start off, veteran writer Dave Ferrell explains the history of dredges and why they’re so important in his terrific feature, “BAIT BALLS OF FIRE! How Dredge Fishing for Billfish Revolutionized the Sport.” ITB Associate Editor Carol Bareuther examines the new trends in offshore tackle, with lighter and smaller gear becoming more prevalent. Publisher Dale Wills describes ”7 Knots Every Mate Must Master,” with an explanation on why each is so important to know and detailed illustrations showing how to tie them. Australia’s Peter Pakula takes center stage in “First Lure” with his ground-breaking concave lure designs, and we also profile St. Thomas blue marlin veteran Capt. Ray Walters in “Old Salts.”
