    White Marlin Lures/Baits????

    What is a good lure, size and color, for white marlin ??? I know hoos/witches are productive, I was wondering what else works? Any recommendations are appreciated!

    If you are going to put a lure in front of a natural bait for a white, I would recommend something relatively small. Here is a photo of one of our little bullet baits. It's only 5" in length and has excellent action without being intimidating. I have several captains who will use our little Screamer skirts that the kingfishermen use to dress up a small ballyhoo in lieu of a larger lure.

    Marlin Magic Infant Blue. Everything likes it. An Ahi-P jet too.
    my color choice would depend on where in the world I pull it. the usual colors should work for you--whatever you find success with on your seawitches, etc....

    Welcome back Jeff.

    Ralphie, when it's time to target whitey THINK MEAT.
    Naked ballyhoo, the smallest split tailed mullet you can find or the 2 most over looked baits from by-gone days. Can you guess what they are?
