About this lure
The simplest and one of the most effective offshore trolling lures ever made — just a tapered cedar wood body with a lead head and a single hook. Cedar plugs have been catching tuna and other pelagics for over a century. Often trolled in a spread of 6-12 lures behind an offshore boat.
