Robert Tapert:
HI

I am going with a group to Oman at the end of Nov. I want to pack some light tackle gear. Any recommendations on lure selection to go with 20 to 30 pound braid?

thanks

Hi Robert

The Shimano Waxwing 88 mm worked very well there in april. As did the Strike Pro Baby Buster - it bloody caught everything including smaller GT's and bonitos! Unfortunately I didn't bring any of them. I just stood there watching my buddies catching on them! :) For brim the smaller poppers worked well and the queenies did seem hungry for whatever was presented - I got a really nice one on an Orion Bigfoot 25.

When are you going?

Mark Harris:
Hi Robert

A star of both trips I have made was Orion Mister Joe 35 grams. Ed Nicholas also loves this lure and made me leave the one I had left with him :)  as his own stocks were all gone. 

Also Shimano Ocea Pencil in the 150 mm size. That probably means that similar lures like Smith Baby Runboh and the small Tailwalk Gunz would go well.

Brandon Khoo:
There is a big difference in size between a Mister Joe and a Baby Runboh. The bream there will take a Baby Runboh!?
