Is there a yak speed artifical lure good for YF?

Rapala or Yozuri Hydromag

and paddle fast.

Swim baits would also be a good bet. 1 or 2 oz lead heads.

I got YFT on the yak last year trolling what looks like a fly fishing feather plastic head. I got this lure in a tourney grab bag. It's a light weight feather with a 60# learder and a single hook. I put a 1ounce egg sinker and trolled it the 25 bank La Bocana last winter, they YFT hammered it every drop back. Good luck.

Megabait in Sardina pattern, YOYO style! :reel:

X Rap Magnums in the 4 3/4" size troll very well at 3 knots. They have a nice blue sardine pattern & the bonito pattern has produced yft as well. I'd suggest removing the front hook to avoid any mishaps.

All great tips, guys, thanks. I'll be bringing them all. Abreojos Oct. 14th.
