This Inshore Lure Worked Shockingly Well 100+ Miles Offshore [6 New PBs]

Ever wondered if an inshore shrimp lure could hold its own against live bait 100 miles offshore?
In this video, I put the Prawn USA to the ultimate test on a 39-hour Hubbard’s Marina trip and the results were shocking:

Multiple personal best grouper (including a 29” beast)

First-ever triggerfish on artificial

Snapper after snapper and out-fished live bait!

Bonus: Chapter member Bill joined in on the action and crushed it with the Prawn too

You’ll see what worked, what didn’t, and the exact gear and retrieve style that produced keeper after keeper — so you can replicate this next time you head offshore.
