Live bait: It is important to have live bait for kite fishing such as goggle eyes, tinker mackerels, blue runners, mullet, sardines and threadfin herring. The key is to have fresh bait for it to last long because you will be traveling long distances with kite fishing. Pre-frozen bait does not last as long as fresh.
Location: Because you will be mostly standing around while kite fishing, it is important to choose a good fishing area. Areas with a rip current, near a shipwreck or where there is a temperature gradient are good choices. Always be prepared for winds and currents.
Kite: You will have to choose a kite depending on the conditions of the day. It is helpful to have light, medium and heavy wind kites available for more flexibility. The stronger the winds, the easier it is to have a steady tack on your kite. The best kites to use are the vinyl ones for durability and long lasting use.
Kite Reel: Kite reels are necessary to have for holding the line that tethers the kite. The best type of kite rod to use is the one that is shore and stout.
Releases: It is recommended that you use rigging floss half-hitches as opposed to clip-swivel systems because they will create adequate sized release clip stoppers on the kite line. This way, you won’t need swivels and you can prevent breaking the kite.
Launching: The best place to launch the kite is from the highest point on the boat and you can even use two kites at the same time as well.
Maintenance of your kite is important to avoid problems while flying. You should always repair any holes and check for damages. Many fishing enthusiasts enjoy a day of kite fishing because it does not involve much work. All it takes is some practice in order to have successful catches.
