About this lure

The C-4 Tube is a high-action lure with a tube-style head and subtle scoop, creating erratic splashes and strong bubble output. Internally keel-weighted for stability, it stays planted while producing just the right chaos to provoke reaction strikes. Its vibrant action mimics panicked baitfish—especially deadly on tuna and striped marlin.

Target Species: Tuna, mahi-mahi, striped and blue marlin
Action: Splashy, erratic skips with a strong smoke trail
Rigging Options: Available rigged or unrigged

Recommended Spread Positions:

6.5"Long Rigger or Shotgun: Lively surface skitter for wary pelagics

8.5"Long Rigger: Mid-range surface chaos, perfect for raising billfish

10.5"Long Corner: Big, noisy attraction close in, ideal for marlin or large tuna

The C-4 Tube adds flash and energy to any spread, with consistent performance even when the seas get messy.

How to work it

The C-4 Tube is trolled in a spread behind a moving boat, deployed at the long rigger or long corner positions depending on size.

The 6.5" model works the long rigger for a lively surface skitter that appeals to wary pelagics; the 8.5" sits mid-range on the long rigger to raise billfish with mid-range surface chaos; the 10.5" takes the long corner for big, noisy attraction close to the boat, ideal for marlin or large tuna.

Its tube-style head with subtle scoop creates erratic splashes and strong bubble output, mimicking panicked baitfish. The internally keel-weighted design keeps it planted on the surface while producing the smoke trail and reaction-strike chaos that provokes tuna, mahi-mahi, striped marlin, and blue marlin.
