Best blue marlin lures

[michael1]

I need to purchase a few marlin lures and with so many on the market I was wondering what you all considered to be the top 5. Namebrand,size,color, etc. Thanks and tight lines.

This response may catch you at the tail end of the season. If so, you may already know that the best 5 marlin lures are the last 5 you caught a fish on. That said, I have a few that seem to consistently raise fish. 1. Moldcraft Wide Range in blue/pink/white; 2. Moldcraft Super Chugger in black/orange; 3. Pakula Cockroach; 4. Black Bart Super Plunger; and 5. Coontail (Professional Angler in New Orleans sells them) in black/red. You should probably pull all these lures on 80-130, but the Coontail is small enough for a 50.
