Li'l bit o' new Bling for the SFC.com Store

[BahamaLure]

I've been sniffing too much resin again and come up with a couple of new color schemes for the BahamaLures in the Sportfishermen.com ship's store, so far test results have been good!

Get Squiddy With it - the new Humboldt Squid pattern is an attempt to replicate a squid's colors as it changes from near white to reddish brown. The big bronze eye complements the style. When selecting the color pattern in the drop box look for "Humboldt Squid"



The Humboldt is an effort to 'match the hatch' and make a lure that actually looks like the real thing, on the other hand these next colors... well, not so much. The idea here is to go for a high contrast, bright lure against a dark background. Have you ever wondered why pink is so successful when there are no known pink baitfish? Or chartreuse is so good when that color does not ever even exist in nature?

The answer is Fluorescence. Think of it as Glow-in-the-day (day-glo) coloring. Ultra violet light in sunlight strikes the fluorescent object and reflects back light that fish and us can see, thus making it appear brighter. In sea water this is even more amplified as UV light penetrates water while IR light does not, thus leaving a UV enriched environment. This is why a fluorescent lure will appear bright and works even better on overcast days when the clouds have already soaked up most of the infra red.

The lures are 100% fluorescent, the heads, eyes and skirts!

Fluoro - Pink

Also now available on all BahamaLures is a rigging option, all single stainless hooks and mono leaders (Except the wahoo bullets with cable)

no that's a Jupiter 80 teaser/lure, big fella I like to run off a bent butt 80 in the corner just in the wash. I have an upside down lure in the works now I'll post a shot of it when its skirted up.

We have been running a Trinton now for the past few trips in case Mr. Blue Suit showed up and i have to say that although we didnt connect with a Blue, Whitey seems to love this lure. Yesterday alone we had 8 and brought up about double that.

Ours is a black with orange, and had multiple fish come up on it and try to eat it....
