How do you pull a Blue Marlin spread

[BahamaLure]

I plan on releasing all billfish, unless they're worth a million bucks. Another question though, Why extra hard leader, would the liures swim better on regular leader

the X-hard is for abrasion resistance, the lures look just fine on it, if they don't then something is wrong other than the leader.

the only time I have seen leader be a problem is after someone coiled it way too tightly and stored it like that for a while. I coil mine as loose as I can, you don't want a corkscrew in front of any lure!

YOU never know BOB HANSEN caught a huge blue marlin back in 2007 at hydrographers on a 30 with a 6 inch squid bar 7 hours to land it what a beast pics on my site but i dont know how to post them BUT FROM MY EXPERIENCES DOWN HERE IN GALAPAGOS JUST LIKE RODDY SAYS BIG STUFF CLOSE LITTLE STUFF FAR WORKS FOR BIG BLACKS AS WELL

has anybody caught more than roddy because i havent, and ive caught more than most of you! if you dont agree thats fine just listen and apply it to your next experience.the # weighed is always more important than the # seen. i have succeeded on the # seen but my # weighed is very dissapointing. do you want to be known for your idea or your success? i have lots of ideas that havent worked, but the question is do you have the experience to ? i would assume which isnt the best term, but i would imagine its true that we should listen with open ears to somebody with proof that next time you have your opportunity you should listen to somebody who has got the picture and proof! ive got some pictures but none prove to be as big as his proof! sometimes you should listen and learn, then remember hes done it and you havent. when you have ,offer your opinion.

All the ones on the left are short rigger teasers and all the ones on the right are long rigger lures. And even tho I was arguing with Roddy that white headed Legend really did produce.
