Iland Lures The Tracker | Offshore Trolling Lure for Mahi, Tuna, Kingfish & Sailfish
Iland Lures The Tracker
The Iland Lures The Tracker is a tournament-proven offshore trolling lure trusted by captains around the world for targeting mahi (dolphin), tuna, kingfish, sailfish, wahoo, and other pelagic gamefish. Its compact 4-1/4-inch, 3/4-ounce profile features a precision bullet-shaped head that tracks true, eliminates lure spin, and performs flawlessly at trolling speeds from 5 to 12 knots.
Designed to fish equally well on its own or rigged with a natural bait such as ballyhoo, The Tracker produces an enticing swimming action that consistently attracts offshore predators. Whether you're trolling weed lines for mahi, working color changes for tuna, or pulling a spread along reefs and ledges for kingfish, The Tracker delivers dependable action in a variety of offshore conditions.
Its streamlined design also makes it an outstanding addition to spreader bars, increasing visibility and helping draw fish into your trolling spread. Built with premium materials and available in a wide range of proven offshore colors, The Tracker has earned its reputation as one of the most versatile small trolling lures in offshore fishing.

Premier Tackle Insight
The Tracker is one of those classic offshore lures that continues to produce because of its simplicity. At Premier Tackle, we especially like it as a small bait presentation when fish are keyed in on smaller flying fish, sardines, cigar minnows, or juvenile ballyhoo.
One of its biggest advantages is the bullet head design, which keeps the lure running straight without spinning, even when sea conditions get rough. We often fish The Tracker over a rigged ballyhoo for mahi, tuna, kingfish, and sailfish, but it also performs exceptionally well by itself when fish are aggressively feeding.
If you're building an offshore trolling spread, The Tracker is an easy lure to mix with larger baits and teasers. Its smaller profile frequently draws bites when larger lures are being ignored, making it one of those confidence baits you'll want rigged and ready every trip.
