I finally got the irons from my man Pat...

[Captain Michael Buffington]

Pat is Toms's son the vice pres. for big 5 sporting goods in California and Pat reps for diawa and berkley. He was nice enough to send me a care package of irons. I don't know how much you guys know about these phenomenal lures, but THEY ARE THE HEAT for tuna and wahoo and grouper and every other thing with slime and a tail. Check out the new arsenal and thanks Pat, you are the shit!

But I got a couple of sources. They are not cheap, about ten bucks apiece, but well worth it. I have had trouble getting them out of catalogs and just have to get them straight from a tackle store in SD, Ca. Let me know if you want me to smuggle some to ya via the California connection

Hey Mike, you gonna send some to your buddy,OH NO ITS NOAH,to catch some bait???

These are the top lures in So.Cal and Mexico for White Sea Bass, Yellowfin and bottom fish, they come in weighted and light weight versions, the weighted ones are great for hooking on live squid or dead bait and fishing the depths, Kelp and bottom and the ligher versions are used for casting to kelp beds and retrieving back, they swim with a great side to side action especially the single hook rigs. They can be found in every tackle shop from LA to Cabo, Meltons has plenty and they come is some great color combos and different sizes.
I prefer diamond and butterfly jigs for vertical jigging for tuna etc; but for bait and surface action these style lures are dynamite.

Here are some of the Tady's, but if you want a good selection it's better to call Melton and they can custom select a variety for you, all the guys there have been fishing them for years.
