What a fantastic tip. I love this channel, the kayak vids are my fav but honestly its all good. This man is genuinely such a treasure for the fishing community and I have so much respect for him. Thank you for sharing with us.
I just bought the sp minnow and I have a nine foot ugly stick with a Shimano Sierra 4000 reel with 20 lb braid. Is my line and reel to small and light for this lure.
No you can still use the 20IBs main line I would just beef up the Mono leader to 30Ilbs or so. Just have to baby the fish a lot more and hope the fish don't break the main line. You can catch big fish with small line but that's where skills come into place. Go by feel and you'll know when to upgrade.
Campania and Big Island Baits have good lures that you could use. Mark Whites, Daiwa sp Minnows, Skubus Lures, Kaku Lures, Orca Lures and Bait 08 for now.
Can't do too much fishing anymore but I enjoy watching your videos keep them coming
A very nice tip,thank you very much sir.

No thank you so much I really appreciate the kind words.
Best explanation very true let's keep the fish population going for the future!

If the fish can run without to much areas that can cut the line you can use 30Ibs test. If not I would use 50Ibs test.
So should I still use the lure of wait until I get heavier line.

Awesome idea!! Thanks for sharing.
Thanks Dan. Good tip. We used to use the camera film canister for palu but this is nice.
What are you using for chum?
Aloha island hooking, I'm starting to use lures on the big island. Any suggestions on lures to catch Omilus? Mahalo
Alexis Carpio I would start with scroungers to get the feel of things and get into bigger lures later like the sp minnow or mark whites. Good luck.

Thank you we all have to do our part
Nice tip

if you don't want the palu to come out too fast, use a cheese cloth covering with some duct tape...
