Big Trebles - Which is best!?

<< < (3/4) > >>

Ben Rivers:
When I say big lures, im talking - Ebipop 200, Orion 170, Dogtooth 150 etc.

Antonino Augugliaro:
Some times should arrive something like this

this 160gamma, used by a friend of mine,  had 2 GTrecorder 5/0 (or 6/0? I don't remember well)... My be 2 GT attacked the lure in the same times. Whit a lot of fortune 1 GT has been landed, extimated on 35 kg.
After this experience I start fishing whit a short chugger whit only 1 ST76 5/0 stabilized by a blade on the rear and whit single hook for stick. Good hookup, no one problem of straightens after it. I love this game 'cause every time, every new trip, every new fish are new experiece...

Mark Harris:
Trebles versus singles is a whole other debate and one we have had a "few" times already :).  Of course large single hooks are must less likely to straighten than even the hugest trebles.

Ben, is Dogtooth 150 the Nomad branding for a Heru Wahoo 150? If so, that's not an especially large stickbait and I would use ST66 5/0.

If the Orion 170 you refer to is a Bigfoot (?) then they are dense lures and also not really big for their weight.

I use Ebipop 200's sometimes and usually rig them with ST76 5/0.

Brandon Khoo:
yes, the Dogtooth is a 150 Wahoo in a different colour

The wahoo 150 is one  my favourites but sinks with a pair of st76 5/0s.A single 11/o back and centre was too light....a 76 on the back and a 66 on the cenre works as does 2/11s on the centre and 1/11 on the back.This lure has taught me a lot about weight.
