Single or double hooks on your trolling lure? We run doubles in most of our lures to cover the whole bite, front and back, but a single is cleaner, simpler, and safer at the boat. Here is how we rig for meat fishing in Hawaii and how to pick the right setup.
A bullet runs anywhere in the spread with that skittery side to side S-turn. An invert runs straighter, pops, smokes, and stays down longer. Here is how I choose between them, and where the cut face fits in.
Ahi don't behave the same way year-round. Water temperature, bait migration, and current patterns all affect what's working on any given day. Here's what we've learned about matching lures to conditions in Hawaiian waters.
Hawaiian fishing lures evolved in some of the most challenging and productive pelagic waters on the planet. What works in the Atlantic or Gulf doesn't necessarily translate to the deep blue off Kona or the FADs outside Honolulu.
Most guys spend hours rigging lures, checking tackle, loading the cooler - but they never stop to think about what they're actually trying to accomplish once they get out there. They're preparing for a trip, not planning a hunt.
The head shape of a trolling lure determines everything: how it runs, how deep it tracks, how much noise it makes, and what species it attracts. Pick the wrong shape for your conditions and you'll drag plastic all day.
Ahi hit hard and they're not shy about chasing a lure. But the wrong headshape, color, or size and they'll swim right past. Here's what actually works in Hawaiian waters.
