The Coggin Tado Mauna Kea Scoop is a massive 14” heavyweight trolling lure built specifically for targeting giant blue marlin and other trophy pelagic fish in the world’s most demanding offshore conditions. Featuring the legendary Tado double taper head design with the signature mid-head “hump,” this lure tapers evenly toward both the nose and skirt saddle to create an incredibly stable yet aggressive swimming action. Its large scooped nose, slight head angle, and powerful 4-hole jet system produce an enormous smoke trail, deep surface pop, and explosive bubble pattern that draws the attention of grander-sized marlin from long distances. Exceptionally heavy for its size, the Mauna Kea Scoop tracks perfectly in rough seas and heavy tackle spreads, making it one of the most respected big fish lures ever crafted by legendary lure maker Coggin Lures. Proven aboard professional charter boats throughout the Caribbean, including offshore crews like Simply Caught Charters fishing the legendary Puerto Rican waters and the Mona Trench, this lure has earned a reputation for raising and catching some truly giant blue marlin.
Recommendations: Hook size 10-11 / Leader 400-600
