ORIGINAL WEIGHTED Sevenstrand 12 inch Green Machine
Unrigged with beads
Either solo, behind a bird, or rigged in a spreader bar, Green Machines consistently produce. Fished from any position, the Green Machine has a knack for catching fish in any sea condition. Weighted Green Machines track beneath the surface, preventing the lure from being "thrown" as larger tuna rush the surface to crash the lure (Hint-Hint). Mini Green Machines fish well on heavy action spreader bars or when smaller baits dominate the offshore haunts. Regardless of which Green Machine you choose, be confident once in the water, all will catch fish, many fish.
Rigging is simple, the lure gets a 8/0 - 10/0 southern tuna style hook, and 28-32 red beads on the line to properly space the hook.
Green machines are often used on the USA east coast, configured with a large bird, and daisy chain of artificial squid in front. This rig is sometimes the long center line, and is known for catching fish in that position.
Green machines are also combined with other rigs. Local anglers will often add a green machine behind a spreader bar or daisy chain of artificial squid. Green machines are also run on the flat lines behind a bird, or without other teasers, anywhere in the spread. A simple, single green machine on the long rigger is often the lure that saves the day, when fish are fickle and bites are scarce.
Green machines catch a wide variety of offshore fish, including dolphinfish, bluefish, cobia, tuna, skipjacks, bonita, false albacore, king mackerel, wahoo and billfish.
