Field Notes

Use for offshore trolling at moderate speeds (4–10 knots) to draw marlin, tuna, and dolphin. Track the lure behind the boat with a short rigger setup and let the cup-jet action throw a smoke trail to trigger strikes.

Pros

  • Cup-jet design that tracks a visible smoke trail
  • Skirted lure profile for big-game attraction
  • Handmade in the USA

Cons

  • Designed specifically for offshore trolling speeds and setups
  • Large size/weight may be overkill for smaller species or nearshore use
