sabiki questions - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

Yes, if your main target is Macs then by all means limit the mess. However, some of us prefer to target other baits and/or fish areas where Macs are not so plentiful as La Jolla. Ask anybody that has fished San Onofre from a kayak more than a few times how scarce bait can be and how fast it can be gone. With the release tool and a basic skill level, you should have a full sabiki cleaned in less than 10 seconds. Besides, having 6 hooks is no guarantee that you will be hauling in 6 baits each time.
