Amberjack heads

Big baits that a blacktip can't mess with is what i like to use when targetting a big slob shark.Back in the 1980's when fishing the keys bridges we would get bait from the charter boats during March and April and one day it occured to me to use a huge head of an amberjack because i knew it was bloody and so bony that not even a 200 pound nurse shark could destroy it,,,,,I rightly figured that it would take a big shark to swallow it completely and that ther runts would pick it up and drop it .We started catching big bulls and even tigers with those big heads and everyone in the shark club was from that point forward during March and April looking for big Amberjack heads at the charter boats.Try it and pass it along an catch yourself a monster!!!


medium sized AJ work well
