I keep coming back to this report!!!! :clap

Sorry if this is am improper question:

What did the Hoo hit? From the picture, it kinda looks like a Blue/White Cedar Plug?

No Problem

The Hoo hit a hawaiianhead lure my buddy made. He buys the heads in Hawaii and then puts the skirts on himself. The lure has a blue diamond head with small jet holes on it about 10 inches long. Then we use a 24 oz meltons trolling sinker 10 feet ahead of the lure to get it down in the spread, and run it off the short corner. This bait almost always catches one or two whaoo every time we put it out. We had two more short strikes on the same bait that same day.We caught a 70 pounder the first trip of the year in may on the same lure and two others the same day.

Thanks, Mike
