Williamson Lures
Tuna, Wahoo and Marlin Lures
Some folks don't go in much for trolling, but as a dedicated private boater I sure do enjoy the troll. It's a prospecting thing. Probably a carry-over from my childhood, heading out to the desert with my dad looking for arrowheads and other artifacts. It's the search, the surprise of finding the fish, rigging things the right way, having the right patterns in the spread, and then HOOK-UP! Finding 'em is almost as much fun as catching 'em, at times even more fun. The lures below primarily fit into the trolling side of things. The frequency of use on the big Long Range scene is limited due to the fishing style most often used. But, for a private boater, the lures below are very interesting and well worth dragging.
A few years ago you might have known of a few of these lures under the name of Pacific Pro, a Southern California distributor for Williamson products. In 2005 Williamson sold their firm to the owners of Rapala. This pretty much put PacPro out of the lure business, but helped more firmly entrench the Rapala group into the saltwater scene with many more offerings than their hard bodied lures. For 2006 Williamson expanded their offerings into some interesting areas, including some very large and realistic soft bodied plastics. We held back a bit, to see how they would do in the real world of catching fish rather than simply attracting fishermen. Well, the reports are in that the lures can indeed produce some good catches. They've even won a few Marlin tournaments to the surprise of many. So, it was quite natural that we'd bring 'em into our line-up of lures. In 2007 even more new lures were introduced by the new Williamson; their fishing success and fisherman popularity seems certain based upon design, construction and value. The new Williamson still makes a very good lure for a very reasonable amount of money, but they seem much more creative in the lures they're making under the new ownership.

With the introduction of Williamson Saltwater Live Series, a brand-new dimension to blue water fishing is born. Life-like replicas of classic saltwater bait are eliminating the time-consuming �live bait catch� and allowing anglers more productive time on the water. By blending an innovative mix of soft plastic, flash foils and top-of-the-line rigging materials, the designers at Williamson have created baits as close to nature as they come.

Designed to troll alone or as a deep-running offering under standard spreads, the patent-pending wing design on both the Little Tunny and Bunker swim these baits with a perfect mimicry of their natural counterparts.

Whether your spread rigging requires the classic ballyhoo, the elusive ribbonfish or a live squid, each is available pro-rigged and ready to fish assuring a proper presentation from both novice and pro alike.

Field testing has proven the immediate acceptance of these baits by large species around the world. Tournament wins and more world-record catches can�t be far behind.

When it�s all on the line, make sure Williamson is on yours.

Ballyhoo Combo
Here's another unique lure that will attract the attention of fishermen as well as fish. The Ballyhoo Combo utilizes an artificial ballyhoo (like the lures above) rigged behind a concave head skirted lure. They're single hook rigged at the belly and provide natural action as well as fish attracting commotion from the chugger head. It's a deadly combination that doesn't depend upon having live bait available for effectiveness. Priced per lure at a very strong value.

Bulb Squid Daisy Chains

For catching tuna, especially from a private boat, you've really got to do some prospecting to find the fish and some convincing of those fish, to make 'em think it's worth their energy to pursue your offering. You've got to find the fish, get noticed, and you've got to pull the fish to the boat. Daisy chains and spreader bars are effective tools in this regard for private boaters. So, Williamson makes both available, at a darn good price. (Please visit our own CharkBait Chains and Bars for some additional options... )

Another great little chain for use when you're targeting fish feeding on smaller baits, albacore for instance when they're munching small no-see-em's (often early season fish suaries in SoCal) is the Williamson Spanish Mackerel Daisy Chain. It's a great product, with a small bird followed by four hoochies (the last with a single 5/0 hook). The rigs come in a pouch for easy storage and quick deployment and run a mere $24.99

Tuna Plugs

Here's a nice variant on a familiar theme. We've sold these lures for several years and they've been good producers. Williamson's Tuna Plug is similar to a cedar plug in action, you rig them the same way using a narrow eye Mustad tuna hook (we have rigging kits available for about $3). We stock three versions, purple, blue abalone and silver. They're highly reflective of light, so they get noticed while being trolled. They can also be trolled at a fairly quick pace should that be desired. But, they also do quite well trolled slowly at 4-5 knots given their pusher-style head and nice bubble trail.
