The Captain Behind Kraken Lures

Captain Cyrus Widhalm grew up in Kona learning from legendary captains, working his way from deckhand to captain. He now runs Kraken Fish Co and builds lures designed for performance in real offshore conditions.

His most notable achievement is the 2023 Blue Marlin World Cup win and Big Blue Challenge victory, landing an 834.5 lb blue marlin on a Kraken lure in just 11 minutes from lines in.

These lures were originally built for his personal use. They outperformed everything else in his spread, and now he runs Kraken Lures exclusively.
