The Niiyama Lures Mackerel (Opelu) Trolling Heads offer an ultra realistic representation of one of the most prevalent and sought after forage species for dolphin, marlin, tuna, and wahoo around the world. All Opelu lures are handpainted, showing amazing detail including scales, fins, gills, and a 3D eye. These trolling lures are designed to be double skirted giving you limitless color schemes and will result in a lifelike swimming action that closely mimics the escape of a mackerel away from its baitball by predatory pelagics. The Niiyama Mackerel Heads are handmade in Hawaii and available in 3 sizes, 5in, 7in, and 9in, enabling anglers to match the hatch to local mackerel and will ultimately help to land memorable catches out on the rip.

Very nice lure to add to any trolling spread.

Ran this lure this weekend on a 300lbs fluorocarbon leader with a 11/0 hook. Landed a 30 lbs mahi mahi and a couple smaller mahi.
Added a hook stop to the back of it to hold the hook in place.
Only issue I had was the copper sleeve on the inside of the lure, I didn’t add a chaff guard so it damaged the leader line. So I recommend adding that aswell before running if.

Pros
- Runs smooth, everything you would expect from the shape of the lure head.
Cons
- Copper sleeve inside the lure will damage your leader if you do not add a chaff guard.
- Does not come with a hook stop but they are cheap and easy to add.
