Hookup Lures Flyer 4.5

The Hookup Lures Flyer is an offshore trolling lure built to add flash, color and a streamlined baitfish/squid profile to a trolling spread. The 4.5-inch version gives anglers another size option for building a trolling spread around target species, forage and sea conditions.

Why anglers choose it

• Offshore trolling profile for pelagic gamefish
• Can be fished as part of a multi-position trolling spread
• Color selection helps anglers adjust to light, water clarity and forage
• Useful alone or paired with natural bait where appropriate

How to fish it

Fish the Flyer from a position in the trolling spread where it tracks cleanly. Adjust speed, setback and lure position to sea state and target species, and rotate colors as light and water clarity change.

Best techniques

offshore trolling, mahi trolling, tuna trolling, king mackerel trolling, mixed trolling spread.

Target species

mahi-mahi, tuna, king mackerel, wahoo and other offshore pelagic gamefish.

Choosing a color

Use natural blue, silver and baitfish patterns in clear water and bright conditions; stronger pink, purple, chartreuse and glow patterns can add visibility in low light, stained water or when fish respond to higher contrast.
