The Bonze Argonaut marlin lure is designed and manufactured by Bonze Lures, a premium New Zealand–based big game lure company founded by master lure maker and game fisherman Graeme “Bonze” Fleet. Built in the heart of the Bay of Islands—one of the world’s most iconic blue marlin fishing destinations—Bonze Lures are known globally for being hand-finished, performance-tested, and tuned specifically for serious offshore trolling and tournament fishing.
The Argonaut itself is part of Bonze’s heavy-tackle range and reflects the brand’s hands-on development style: real-world testing with top captains in locations like New Zealand, Hawaii, Cape Verde, and the Azores. Each lure is designed to run clean and stable at high trolling speeds while producing a strong smoke trail and wide vibration profile that triggers aggressive blue marlin strikes. The Argonaut is especially respected as a consistent “bite raiser” in competitive sportfishing and tournament spreads.
Built and finished in New Zealand, Bonze lures like the Argonaut are crafted with high-quality resins, UV-enhanced materials, and durable skirts designed for extended offshore use in tough saltwater conditions. This attention to detail has earned the brand international respect among elite crews and charter operations worldwide. In the Caribbean—especially Puerto Rico, St. Thomas, and the Virgin Islands—the Argonaut fits perfectly into professional spreads run by operators and tackle suppliers like Simply Caught Charters & Tackle, where serious anglers target blue marlin in tournament and charter fishing environments.
