Nipple/Edge/131 this weekend

Kevdog540 · 09-03-2008, 10:19 PM

I'm thinking about heading out this weekend. Any repoprts on these areas(Nipple/Edge/131)? I'm fairly new to trolling, and any advice would be great. I've read alot on here that the YoZuri Bonito is the lure of choice, what color for this time of year/or water color? Or is that the wrong lure?

I'm thinking about going there this weekend also. Let me know what day you're heading out. I'm in a smaller boat and would like to know someone is near and if you have any problems I can be close by to help out... Just in case..... As far as lures, I'm in the same boat as you. I'm trying to figure it out as I go..

About how fast you pulling the high speed lure?

spiderjohn · 09-05-2008, 01:01 AM

For lures...not a pro but...would suggest pulling ballyhoo with islanders (blue/white). Iilander blackholes pop nice. Moldcraft wideranges are also pretty good staples...black/purple/silver. The Bonito form Yozuri is a deeper running lure for the wahoo hook up. The iilander/moldcraft seems to work for just about everything and especially mahi. If you pull all yozuris, i would think your options are limited on hookups. just 0.02

We will see you out there saturday morning.
