The Marlin Magic Lil Hibby is a brand new 10″ sized version of the Hibby series. Is basically a chopped off version of the Medium Pear with very wide hips like the regular Hibby and a slanted nose. This bait is named after well known Kona captain Kevin Hibbard on the ‘2nd Offense’.
In the first couple days of testing the Lil Hibby, Kevin Hibbard was 3 for 3 on Blue Marlin on this lure and has caught a lot of Spearfish on this bait. In fact, this lure will work for just about any pelagic species with an excellent hook-up ratio.
There’s an excellent review on the Hibby and Lil Hibby by Kevin Hibbard on his Instagram page. Check it out here:
