So as not to hijack the needlefish spoon threads

Oops - hit reply too quick
I found that everything would take a swipe at those. Great if you are not fussy about what you are catching but not so great for releasing unclipped coho and shakers.
The double trebles gotta go! The ones I used needed a larger single on the tail only to balance out again.
I took a thin strip of glow green tape along the lateral line of the silver /blue one I have and = good mature needlefish imitation. I suggest you run 7-10' above bumping bottom because they will dive if you troll on fast side and sink if you troll at slower speeds
 
I saw them in a tackle store in Kona and just decided to try them. They are called a SP Minnow, and made by Daiwa. I'll let you guys know how they work--- and YES, the trebles will be removed
 
top one looks more like a good pilchard imitation
 
Charkbait 'stickbaits'

here is the 2 that I bought - (Charkbait is a Calif. tackle shop that has online store )

And... so I don't disturb John's viewing assessment - no forks in frame

Those look great Terry. The top of the two, though both, looks like a gooder.
