Jim, The Yummee is the best bait hands down. We are rigging the bait with a 10/0 Owner Jobu hook, rubber banded on the top of the bait at the tail. The only thing I can compare it to is fishing a buzz bait for large mouth bass. We ended up catching 14 fish over 4 days 7 between 50-100 lb, 6 of them over 100 lbs., and one over 200 lbs. We had one special bait that caught us 9 fish.

Attached below are a couple of pictures of our 192 pound Yellow
Fin Tuna that we caught, using your Yummee Fly'N Fish off of a
kite, during The Western Outdoor News Tuna Tournament in Cabo.
What a thrill and a sight to see those large Tuna come out of
the water and devour your bait.....like a bass on steroids
hitting a top water bait. While the fish was big enough for first place, which we held up until three minutes left in the tournament when a boat came in and weighed in a fish approx 15 pounds larger. So we settle for a solid second place. 
Look forward to fishing your product again in Cabo over the
Thanksgiving week. Brad Stevenson

Here's a pic of a nice yellowfin caught on the yummee. It is the
biggest fish of the trip. Jason |

This Big Eye caught on May 12th is our biggest Tuna yet.
She was caught on a Yummee Bird chased by a blue/white Jet Head
- right off the stern, maybe 30' back. Best regards, Randy La Fon.

We are currently on our first trip since January and the
Yummee flyer has been on fire! The tuna here at the Hurricane
Bank seem to zone in on the flying fish . They can't resist the
yummee when you rip it across the surface. We put a good mention
of the yummee on the " Let's talk hook up " radio show
yesterday. And we've been putting pics and reports of it on our
website. Hope all is well with you.

| To carolinalures, These are two of my lastest catches on the yummie bird lure, both fish was caught the same morning the one with me holding the fish by tail is a 103 lb, the one i am holding upright is a 95 lb, both was caught on the same lure and it is still ready, this is a great lure, due to certain times of the year all you see are smaller flying fish in the gulf and the yummie is a little larger and I think this is a great solution to that. so be asure from here on out I will always have these lures along with the yummies. I am really impressed with the ports for the hooks on this lure, please past along to the one who came up with this design, that they did a great job. and I am looking fwd to any other products from your company. Thank you, Todd   |

We pulled the single flying fish on
the way back by itself and caught a nice yellowfin and the 2
biggest dolphin on it, I put that in my fishing report on Chas.
Fishing.com It held up well so I will let you know how long it
makes it if it keeps getting bit like that. I saw the dolphin
chasing it from the tower which was pretty cool. Thanks again Capt. Richard Brackett |

.....a photo of my dad's African Pompano which ate one of your
Sand Fleas last year in St. Thomas (neutral color).
Extremely slow day that day and live bait wasn't cutting it so I
pulled out one of your baits and got a look from the guide as
though I was crazy - needless to say, the Guide offered to
purchase the rest of your baits from me. I just gave them to
him. Capt Todd

As you know we have been using your 2 oz
Tuna Busters for the past 10+
years with great success.I simply won't fish without at least
two of them in the spread,my crew knows if you pull them out of
the spread I'll stop the boat.Many of my friends have started
using them and have become believers as well . Last year while fishing the Beach Haven White Marlin Invitational here in New Jersey we caught 2 Bluefin one was 99.7 lbs and the second was 162.3 lbs both caught with Tuna Busters. The 162.3 lb fish held up for the second heaviest fish for day two and won a little prize money. Here's the photo of the fish at boat side you can notice the Tuna Buster near the rod tip when the fish hit it ran the Buster up the line and jammed it on the mini swivel.

Wow! Send me more Yummee Flyers! They really work and drive the
big yellowfin tuna crazy. Fishing on the Red Rooster III about
500 miles South of san Diego, I rigged one about 6 ft below a
large helium balloon and the wind carried the rig away from the
boat skipping the flyer on the surface. It didnt get too far
away from the boat before a trophy sized yellowfin tuna exploded
on it. Sometimes the tuna get so excited they come all of the
way out of the water when hitting the Yummee Flyer. I also used
the Yummee tuna with straight tied to a 12/0 Gamakatsu heavy
hook and a chin weight to get it down to where the big tuna were
feeding while at the Hurricane Bank about 900 miles South of San
Diego on the Red Rooster III. It was slammed by a huge tuna, but
unfortunately I did not get a good hookset. Im trying the Yummee
Tuna again this March. Next time Ill get a better hook set, I
hope!
