SQUIDGY BLUEWATER GARFISH
Whether used whole or as a cut bait, there's hardly a saltwater fish swimming
that doesn't like eating garfish, but it's the game species like kingfish,
mahi mahi, the various tunas, marlin and sailfish that really take a shine
to them.
When trolling skipping gars for marlin, having hordes of striped tuna
and the like knocking them off can be a very frustrating experience, which
is why the new Squidgy Bluewater Garfish makes such good sense.
Developed by Kaj
'Bushy' Busch, Bluewater Garfish are available in pearl blue and
green, are realistically soft, yet at the same time tough enough to survive
multiple strikes without falling apart - unlike real gars. Bluewater Garfish
are held together by a reflective beaded flexi-skeleton rigged on a 250-pound
Dacron loop.

To rig one couldn't be simpler; all you have to do is half-hitch
a hook onto the Dacron loop and you're in business.
A stinger hook can be added via a bait needle to deal with tail-biters.

Additionally, hookless Bluewater Garfish make deadly teasers for tuna
and marlin, either rigged 'in line' on a daisy chain or across a spreader
bar. At around $23.00 retail for a pack of two, it makes good sense to
carry a couple in the tackle drawer.
The Bluewater Garfish is the first in a comprehensive series of Bluewater
Livies, so keep an eye out in the future for an expanded range in your
local tackle store.
