Topwater Caranx Ignobilis: Giant Trevally (GT) > Tackle & Techniques

Discussion on various trebles

<< < (3/9) > >>

Peter Morris:
I must say I love the Decoy's due to their weight and very nice shape.

I have managed to straighten 6/0's but then again I had a Gamakatsu 6/0 recorder just simply 'Snap' last year too.

Jon Li:
All trebles have limitations but my favourite are Owner STBL66 - 4/0 , Gamakatsu 22A - 4/0 , Decoy Big Saltwater 6/0 .

Have snapped Decoy GT Special 5/0 , straighten Owner STBL 5/0 and VMC trebles .

Nowaday am not fishing heavy tackles anymore , gone are my WV80XH n SP710H SHP and happier with CV79/40RF SHP n SP80M for my dedicated GT fishing .

Somewhat happy to see some are mellowing down in their choise of rods , at least I am not the only one getting older n weaker .

Jon .

Mark Harris:
I think VMC trebles come as standard with XRap Magnums? If so, first thing I do is take them off and give them away :).

Hi Mark ,

Even in my freshwater river fishing we remove the VCM trebles which come with the lures to a stronger ones such as Owner , Decoy or Gamakatsu .

Aaron Concord:
Mark,

The X-Raps come with 4X VMC's.
I have some old 6X VMC's which look like a miniature ST-76 in gauge!
They don't bend too easily though they are too small for most GT poppers.

Aaron.
