The Bonze Bruiser may sit in the extra-light category, but this small lure delivers far beyond its size when the bite gets tough. Known for its ability to tempt finicky yellowfin tuna, the Bruiser truly shines when picky fish refuse larger presentations, producing explosive bites from tuna over 200 pounds. Its subtle yet active swimming action makes it a standout choice in clear water and pressured fisheries where finesse matters most. Beyond yellowfin, it has also earned a strong reputation as an outstanding performer in light tackle marlin and sailfish fisheries around the world, proving that sometimes the smallest lure in the spread can end up being the biggest producer of the day.
Recommendations: Hook size 7-8 / Leader 120-220 Fluorocarbon
