Field Notes

This is a large offshore trolling lure head designed for big-game trolling, especially for blue marlin and other pelagics. It is best run at trolling speeds in open water where its aggressive head shape can push water and create a strong surface disturbance or smoke trail behind the lure.

Pros

  • Large, aggressive head profile for big-game attraction
  • Heavy-duty resin construction resists chipping and cracking
  • Strong visual appeal with purple paua finish

Cons

  • Specialized offshore lure with limited use outside trolling
  • Heavy 160 g head requires appropriate trolling tackle
