Rapala X-Rap Magnum 30 - Silver Blue Mackerel

Lure turned up today and for your information I will be using it at a place called
Bermagui which is off the New South Wales south coast.
I hope to catch some yellow fin tuna or marlin.
If you have seen the movie finding nemo they talk about the EAC (east Australian
current) that is where we fish also called the continental shelf.

I'm the full time mate on a sportfishing boat out of Beaufort, NC. While we
primarily troll natural bait (ballyhoo w/ shirts) at a speed of around 6 knots, we
also deploy these plugs. Wahoo absolutely love them, and they seem to hold up
better than most after taking a beating from toothy fish like wahoo.

Generally we troll them behind a boat in patterns of four (varying depths and
colours) at speed between 7 and 18 km per hour. Pretty much all your bigger pelagic
species (tune, bonito, mackeral, wahoo, mai mai etc) will jump on them. Sometimes
sharks will also have a go.

I am off to Baja California, Mexico. I am going to a remote fishing village
on the Pacific side. The village is Asuncion and it is west of Guerrero
Negro.

I will be fishing for Yellowtail, I landed a 50# one last time I fished
there. I will also be fishing Dorado and perhaps tuna if they show up close
enough to shore.

This is a good lure for those waters.

I'm using the magnum mackerel lure to try and get the coveted halibut that I am trying
very hard to catch. I got a tip from a friend that this wobbler is a lure
the big fish simply can't resist. I have high hopes

My name is moshe and i have been using these lures for almost 9 years and i dont
think that there are any lures better than them in the market i have tons of pics of
fish caught with my x-rap's so if you want some i will send you . I live in eilat ,
israel , on the red sea and these lures catch every fish there is here .
