Quick take
A size 25 large saltwater jerkbait for trolling offshore for tuna and other pelagic species.
The Rapala Husky Magnum 25 in Blue Sardine is a 6 1/4 inch trolling lure, weighing 2 3/8 ounces, built to run about 25 feet deep. Its slow-rising action means it rises gradually in the water, which suits anglers working offshore spreads for tuna and other big game. The rigging uses two size 4/0 hooks.
