How to Fish It

Deploy in the short rigger or flat line for maximum versatility. The 3oz is a natural fit for calmer days when you don’t need heavy weight to hold depth, or when running lighter tackle targeting mahi-mahi and smaller yellowfin. Crystal is the cleanest all-around choice in clear blue water; Blue/Crystal is a consistent producer in mixed conditions; Black/Purple adds silhouette and contrast on overcast days or in low light. The nickel finish catches light particularly well when the sun is high and the sea is calm.
