Tackle.\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe project’s aim was to develop a more efficient, universal teaser system using the very effective strips used in dredges and spreader bars for trolling

deeper, as a dredge, to replace dredge bars from Live Bait trolling speeds up to lure trolling speeds.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003ca

This is where the Satellite is positioned in the trough or back of a pressure wave, so it runs just below the surface while creating a bulge on the surface. You may use trolling weights to get it to Black Ripple in the position you want. Black Rippling is also a very effective way to run Bullet Lures. You can certainly run both options on outriggers in any desired positions.\u003ci\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003cspan\u003eRun Deep as a Dredge:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/b\u003eThe Satellite can be run deep by trolling with weights on the tow line, using downriggers with dredge weights, and using planning boards.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Satellite has a slim profile, so it creates minimal drag, so you don’t need weights as heavy as you would using bars.\u003ci\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eGet the Most Out of Using the Satellite\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/b\u003eThe Satellite Triple Strip Version) was initially tested by Matt Alders on holiday off Fiji’s Coral Coast in late June 2026 for over 70 hours. The teaser attracted over twenty Wahoo up to forty kilos with lures directly behind it. The teaser sustained no damage as the crew ran several hooked lures close behind it. This is a great way to increase your catch rate and minimise damage using all types of teasers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe ultimate setup is to run the Satellite on the lower third of the second or third pressure wave, with a Witchdoctor Teaser with strips on the tow rope and a lure or two in the lower third of the following pressure wave.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/pakula.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/sat-side.jpg\"\u003e\u003cpicture class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-61029\"\u003e\u003csource type=\"image\/webp\" srcset=\"https:\/\/pakula.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/sat-side-400x159.jpg.webp\"\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/pakula.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/sat-side-400x159.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"400\" height=\"159\" class=\"entered lazyloaded\"\u003e\u003c\/picture\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/section\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Pakula","offers":[{"title":"Satellite Universal Teaser – Slimy (Tinker) 7 Triple Strips","offer_id":52433187176679,"sku":null,"price":239.99,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Satellite Universal Teaser – Yellowfin 7 Triple Strips","offer_id":52433187209447,"sku":null,"price":239.99,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Satellite Universal Teaser – Garfish (Ballyhoo) 1 Triple 6 Single Strips","offer_id":52433187242215,"sku":null,"price":239.99,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0638\/7043\/5559\/files\/Satellite-Slimy-Triple-430x277.jpg?v=1785479759","url":"https:\/\/www.tacotackle.com.au\/products\/pakula-satellite-universal-strip-teaser","provider":"Taco Tackle","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
