Description

The Alien Runner. An aggressive concave pusher designed to create a powerful, erratic swimming action. Its uniquely shaped head produces savage reaction strikes from offshore predators. Designed with a functional rear cavity. Rig with ballyhoo or strip bait and it will perform more effectively than as a standalone lure. At trolling speed, the head design shields natural bait and minimizes washout. Preserving presentation and extending effectiveness in spread. A proven producer, the Alien Runner excels on Wahoo, mackerel, and dorado (mahi-mahi). When rigged with bait, it becomes deadly on raising sailfish, and smaller billfish.
