    Jay - I would tend to agree but stumbled on the black/bronze finlets and the squared off pecs. they caught a few with the squared off pecs.

    I'd say nice blue or black marlin bait i'd go with yellowfin but not so sure with the pec fins.

    So what is it??

    oh boy thats the perfect snack!

    big hook on that feather!

    rofl for me these are the hardest tuna to catch, they so small yet they must have graduated from univ on how not to attack lures

    some1 must have been happy to have such bait
