LURES          PHOTOS          ORDER REPLACEMENT SKIRTS

ALOHA LURES are the successful result of twenty years of big game fishing and applied design research. Design weights are balanced and will perform in a variety of fishing styles and a wide range of sea conditions. Each shape is finely tuned to represent a different swim pattern. Clear resin heads, almost indestructible, take on the color of the skirts. The flash of the mirrored inserts are highly visible and draw strikes from all predatory gamefish.

About the Grander...  We caught the 1027 lbs. on the Smash Bait on the short corner. It ate at 12:30pm on July 27th. The fish was tail wrapped in its first series of jumps and angler Camilo Lopes did an excellent job of maintaining pressure and form during the grueling battle. The fish sounded and eventually died leaving a tenous job for crew Agnes Nulles and Buck Mallette. Nearly four hours and the fish was painstakingly planed up from the depths. The fish would require three crew from the vessel Northern Lights to assist in loading her onto the decks of the Sundowner. The biggest honor of the capture was running to Kailua-Kona pier and weighing her in the place where, many years ago, the first Kona granders were weighed.

The Mistake lure is one of my best lures of all time. The original Mistake was an accident. The shape is the same as the Small Beauty but the insert is pure magic. The special glass used in this piece is a fusion of color and light. It glows and swims like a healthy live bait. Out performs other lures of similar size. A perfect lure for anyone who wants to catch more fish. Capt Erik

Disco Ball 12" Slant #1     Skirt Size OC40
4-Sided Mirror over Holograph Foil
The Medium Disco Ball is a favorite Hawaiian design. The bulb on the aft half of this lure causes a nice wobbling action. It pops, swims, and wobbles seductively. Medium Disco Balls catch them all, but wahoo can't resist the boogie action. Great for light tackle applications. Capt Erik

The Lil' Disco has a small off-set concave in the bevel of the nose. The pop and swim of this tasty morsel is irresistable to tuna and mahi. When the tuna are shy, fire this baby back there and be ready. Light tackle applications. Capt Erik

Uncle Moe 9" Slant #35     Skirt Size OC30
4-Sided Mirror over Holograph Foil
Uncle Moe is the newest addition to the Aloha Lure family. Tuna fishermen - get set for action and have the wasabi and soy sauce ready. A smaller pointed straight runner, Uncle Moe is another rag doll lure with strong fish appeal. Ideal for tuna and wahoo fishing, try both the broken glass and Malolo fish head versions. Capt Erik

DeepSix

Deep Six 9" Bullet #12     Skirt Size OC27
8 Staggered Mirrors
Deep Six was originally designed for tuna but repest reports of marlin and wahoo attacks branded it a slayer. The pointed nose and sharp transition make this shape an important addition to the seasons spead. Skittering across the surface like a fleeing flying fish or squid, the distinct rag doll action is the secret to this deadly lures success. Capt Erik

SMASH BAIT 16" Slant #22
2-Sided Mirror  -  Silver Glit over Black (Top/Bottom)
Blue Marlin   Skirt Size OC70
The Smash Bait is the largest of the legendary tube designs, and has earned it's name in the blue waters of both the Pacific and the Atlantic Oceans with it's reputation for big fish. An aggressive bevel with softened rails and a slight forward taper, this shape creates some serious distress behind the boat. A fantastic teaser or hook rigged trolling bait for big fish. An estimated at 1400+lbs. marlin was hooked on the Smash Bait in the Azores last year by the crew of the Capri. Unfortunately, the fish escaped before capture and left with the lure. Rumor has it, there was great deal of cursing and drinking when all was lost. Capt Erik
