The Coggin Lures Tado Mauna Kea Pusher 14” is an exceptionally heavy, slanted-nose trolling lure built for serious big game anglers targeting giant blue marlin and other pelagic predators. Featuring the legendary Tado double taper design with the signature mid-head “hump,” this lure tapers evenly toward both the nose and skirt saddle, creating a perfectly balanced yet aggressively powerful swimming action. Its slight nose angle and substantial weight for its size allow it to dig, push water, and track cleanly even in rough offshore conditions, producing a strong presence in the spread that big marlin cannot ignore. In addition to its reputation as a “grander-class” marlin lure, it excels as a short corner lure and doubles as an outstanding teaser in bait-and-switch spreads, drawing fish up aggressively into the spread. Highly regarded by offshore crews and one of the most respected designs from Coggin Lures, the Mauna Kea Pusher is a proven producer in heavy tackle spreads throughout the Caribbean and beyond.
Recommendations: Hook size 10-11 / Leader 400-600
