Gents,

Just trying to get some opinions on wahoo lures.  I think we are going to try and target some of the rigs along the shelf out there in a bout 150 ft +.  Talked with Capt. Eddie and he recommended Yozuris..  I think that is a pretty good recommendation.  What about mixing these with malurs??  What is a good trolling speed too with a smaller boat??

Also, any hints on what rigs produce best during Jan, Feb, March, and April??

Your help would be much appreciated..

Regards,

DONT JERK!! REEEEELLLLL!!

the yozuri bonitas in any dark color including the dark orange, get the ones with single hooks(the double hooks will bend easier) manns stretch 25 or 30 in a darker color or pink, and purple/black or blue and white islanders rig with 3 feet of wire if just targeting wahoo, troll at 8- 15 knots but 10 is a good starting point

I second the blue and white Ilanders.

yo zuri bonita and mylars all work pretty good. but islander is making a new lure with a weighted head. Looks the same as the normal islander but are a few ounces heavier to stay down in the water while trolling at highspeeds for the wahoo. Outcast has them .

Sharks are naturally peaceful, they only bite when you touch their private parts.
