Fishing The Deep

- Captain Adam

During the summer of 2004 on the warm Hawaiian waters off Oahu, I got a chance to test out one of my new shapes.  I skirted the lure with a couple of my favorites and it was ready for a test run. 

I rigged the lure to a 10/0-9/0 trailer set and sent it into the wild on the center rigger.  At this time we were coming around Barbers Point en route to Waianae when SMACK, "Hana Paa" the center rigger screamed down and the spool began to resonate the sound all fishermen love. 

I looked out to the water and witnessed the site of a 160 pound baby blue jumping in the distance.  We landed that giant in about 45 minutes with the lure I handmade.  The many hours I had spent teaching myself how to create the little masterpieces was beginning to pay off.  I replaced the leader on my new killer and put it back on the center rigger.  I wanted to know if the last catch was a lucky shot or if this lure could really produce.

After 30 minutes past, the center came down again. My heart raced as a second Blue Marlin tail danced on the water 300 yards out to sea.  What a day! 

I ran this lure for the next two days and had four more bites on it.  I landed two more Marlin, one 250 pounder and one 137 pounder.  Since that glorious day the STINGER (the name I call this shape) has found its place in my lineup almost everyday that I fish.  It has produced multiple Marlin, Dorado, Wahoo and Tuna making it an all around big game lure.  I have confidence in it in any formation, from the heaviest to the lightest seas.  You'll find this lure in my inventory under Likwid Lures and 9" Stinger.  

I realized my calling on that day, as I was filled with the exhiliartion of making so many catches.  I feel that everyone who discovers my lures can share in my success.  I started the company Sunstar Creations with my sweetheart Mary Lenz in Honolulu, HI (November 2004).
