Baby Runbohs

<< < (2/2)

Ewan Macleod:
Are these old runbohs exactly the same as the babys but larger?

Brandon Khoo:
in the old model of the runboh, it would have been pretty close to being an upsized model of the small runboh. Thew new model of the runboh has changed a little. Don't get me wrong - the new baby runboh is a very good stickbait but I just prefer the Gunz Tailwalk. There's something about the Gunz which seems to really turn the reefies on.

Ewan - for your runbohs, I'd suggest you look at the ST-76 in the 3/0s and SJ-41s in the 9/0. The 4/0s are just a  bit too big for the lure and will probably impede the action. 4/0s will turn your floating runboh into a sinking one and if you want your runboh to sink, just get the sinking model. You could in fact probably get away with 2/0s for this lure depening on what fish you're targeting.

Thanks for the info Brandon. Yeah 3/0 are probably a more sensible option for the runbohs. I was actually after sinking models but couldn't find any in oz..
