Started bunker fishing the other week and here was a nice one I snuck in with my charter. Probably high 20lb low 30lb class.

Rod used here is a Daiwa Saltist 6'6" M Power and a Daiwa Saltist 20H with 80lb Suffix Braid. 40lb leader and a 10/0 Gamakatsu Octopus Hook. I mention that I am placing my hooks through the front of the bunker. My two favorite placements are bottom jaw through front of the mouth or nostril to behind the eye. Both of these placements change the bunkers behavior very drastically. Different conditions warrant different hook placement.

I don't do the dorsal fin much from the kayak since I typically am on the move most of the time. Dorsal fin seems to be deadly on fish feeding n the flats or boat drifting.
