Kona Lures
Offshore trolling lures have
revolutionized fishing in the last ten years allowing anglers to troll
at higher speeds covering more ground to find more fish. Aboard the charter
boat Sea Boots Capt. Jim Sharpe has been on the cutting edge of artificial
lures not only in their use, but also in there design. Capt. Jim was one
of the first Captains to use lures in the Florida Straights in the late
50's and 60's. On the run from Miami to Bimini in the Bahamas some 50 miles,
Capt. Jim began trolling lures, to his surprise they caught billfish, wahoo,
dolphin, and tuna while cruising acrossing the stream. After years of modifying
existing lures Capt. Jim began designing lures. An artificial lure has
to meet many demands on a offshore charter boat. The Sea Boots Kona
met and exceeded all of these demands. Trolls at low or high speed with
minimal friction in the water, while maintaining hydrodynamics. The lure
must remain weedless, trolling through heavy Sargasso seaweed. The lure
is the proper size for the gamefish imitating the flying fish one of the
most plentiful baitfish. The Kona is sized perfectly, they will catch large
dolphin, wahoo, tuna and billfish but at the same time they will catch
a four pound schoolie dolphin, perhaps luring a school of dolphin to the
boat with the hooked fish and resulting in the capture of larger fish.
The Sea Boots Kona Lure is made with feathers or plastic
skirts, both catch fish and are very durable. The color selection was designed
by Capt. Jim after years of experimenting with the color patterns of bait
fish. Sea Boots Kona Lures can be purchased in a set pre-rigged
and come with instructions on how to set up the trolling pattern, land
the fish and hook additional fish. |

Aussie Lures
Capt. Jim developed the Aussie
Lure for dolphin, wahoo, tuna and billfish. The Aussie has a slightly
cupped head creating a large smoke trail at moderate trolling speeds. The
striking and smoking action of the Aussie creates the specific image of
a small tuna feeding. Although not as grass resistant as the Kona the concaved
head of the lure not only creates more strike and smoke at moderate trolling
speeds but also forces water forward kicking grass off the lure. Aboard
the Sea Boots the Aussie makes a nice complement to the Kona lures creating
lots of action. The Aussie is not recommended for speeds above eight knots,
the Kona lure is specifically designed for the higher speeds. The Aussie
is available with feather or plastic skirts and comes in six color combinations
designed specifically for offshore gamefish. The Aussie can be purchased
individually or in a set pre-rigged containing instructions on how to set
up the trolling pattern, fight and land the fish and hook additional fish. |
