Catchy is another So. Cal. firm thats making big waves with virtually all of their excellent new lures. In this instance, Catchy has brought back an old favorite Sea Strike Jigs. Theyve updated the product as youll see, but retained that old productive action.Catchy Tackle brought back an old favorite, and made some nice improvements. The shape is the same, nice swimming action, but the action is geared towards wahoo. The lures are a bright chrome, on the flat side Catchy has added a prism finish in silver, blue, purple or red. The lures matched with a single siwash hook for better penetration. Theyre about seven inches in length.
These jigs have been successfully fished on the long range scene, for many years and thru at least 3 changes in ownership of the firm making the lures. SeaStrike is owned by Catchy, and because of that theyve remained part of our long range menu for over 15 years. So, how did we find em to begin with? Fact is, I heard about em backwards. One of our clients contacted us about securing some. Hed just returned from a trip on one of the San Diego based boats, saw first hand just how effective these guys can be. So, we tracked them down and brought some into the shop for the fellow who called, and a few extra for us. Since that time theyve proven their effectiveness with consistent, solid results landing wahoo and other gamefish. Darn good lures, have more action on the drop than say a slab style lure such as a Raider. Theyve even worked for me!
Id suggest running the lures without wire. Ill usually fish em that way, but Ill rig one of each style on single strand as insurance against getting sawed or bit off. In my opinion theyll fish better rigged only on mono, and given the way a wahoo hits the lure youll rarely loose onebut it can happen. In the past three years fishing these irons Ive yet to have to fish my insurance jigs.
