Kraken Lures – Heavy Tackle 16" Beast

The Kraken Heavy Tackle – Extremely Productive 16" Beast!

"My all-time favorite! I've caught more big ones on this than any other lure. If there are big marlin around, I’ll run one on each corner. The Kraken never comes off my short bait." – Cpt. Cyrus Widhalm

During the Blue Marlin World Cup, Captain Cyrus ran two of these in his spread. Just 11 minutes into the tournament, they hooked the winning marlin. This is the actual lure used during the 4th of July tournaments.

The Kraken is the ultimate large marlin shape. Its aggressive, deep-diving action pulls big bites from serious billfish. Run it in the short corner with heavy drag and watch what happens.
