A Day on the 72-foot Viking Krazy Salts

April 16, 2020 By InTheBite Editor

Krazy Salts — Capt. Keith Greenberg

Custom Rods by Dru and Shimano reels keep Krazy Salt’s anglers connected to the fish.

A lunchtime appetizer features succulent Jersey shrimp and a popular crab dip. You can be sure that all the food on board is seasoned to perfection—with just the right amount of salt!

pitch tubes for fishing

The “big-pitch” sits ready to go in a PVC tube fastened to the fighting chair. Best part? It’s custom wrapped with a Jane’s Krazy Mixed Up Seasoning label. Additional pitch baits are situated on the tower leg rod holders wrapped in Krazy Salt’s labeling. The pitch baits are marinated and ready to be gobbled up.

Deckhand Luke Hickey likes to situate the next round of baits outside the bait cooler. “I like the baits to be ready to go and swimming as soon as they hit the water. Baits inside a cooler can take a minute to get flexible,” says Luke. Check out Luke’s rigging demonstration here.

During the course of the day, this bucket accommodates the ABU (already been used) baits. You just never know what’s swimming behind the boat and tossing an ABU could cause an FD—fish detour—away from the hooked baits!

Red Bull and Jagermeister is a winning combination to celebrate each billfish release. Warning! Fishing with Krazy Salt’s during hot bite can cause memory loss.
