Tried a new rig on my 1/4 oz plugs. Instead of the treble wired onto the plug, I ran 12" of 12# fluorocarbon leader to a Woolybugger. I used this concept successfully on Christmas Island for Oio. It seems to work well on Tuc's also. Going to try it on Trout this week. http://s15.postimg.org/mecoima1...

Hi Guy's, Mike de Avila, sent me this notice, "Hey Mark, Your episode of Lunkerville airs next Wednesday January 23rd at 2:00pm EST on NBC Sports Network. I'm not sure what time that is in Hawaii, but check your listings and tell your fans! Hope all is well. Mike D" The water was really low and I co...

That is nice... Brings back happy memories of 30+ years ago. Could you give us a few details about the rod, reel and line you guys use? I use 4# Ande mono tied straight to the lure with a Palomar. The reels are Quantum PTi 10 and Shimano 1000fb are on a Pfluger 5'ul and a Fenwick 5.5' They both hav...

I was working with one of my team members a few weeks ago using 1/8 oz. plugs in the North fork of the Wailua River. http://i96.photobucket.com/albums/l178/surfspot/DSCN5487.jpg http://i96.photobucket.com/albums/l178/surfspot/DSCN5480.jpg http://i96.photobucket.com/albums/l178/surfspot/DSCN5478.jpg

If you don't start your retrieves quickly, and work them fast near the surface.... they sink into the coral. I guess you need a super fast retrieve ratio to make them work on the surface which they look like they are designed for which is great for Papio but not great for freshwater, I think I'll s...

1st Blue gill that I know of on a 1/8 oz. Red/black eyes.

I have a small stream below my house on the island of Kauai that I use as my fresh water lab. Recently I've been testing out a new size, 1/8oz. ceramic plug. I use a combination of surface chugging and skipping and sub surface swimming to get the action that has produced stikes and hookups. ck my ot...
