Maximum Weight for Extreme Conditions and Trophy Fish
The Salas PL-68 Heavy Yo-Yo Jigs deliver the maximum weight and casting power needed for the most demanding offshore conditions. Hand-crafted in Southern California with the same legendary quality that has made Salas the standard for West Coast surface irons, the PL-68 is built for long-range fishing, extreme wind conditions, and targeting the biggest pelagics that swim. When conditions are tough and fish are deep, the PL-68 gets the job done.
Heavy-Duty Construction

- Reinforced Construction: Built to handle the punishment of trophy-class tuna, wahoo, and other powerful pelagics

Built for Extreme Conditions
The PL-68 excels when conditions push lighter irons to their limits. The heavy weight cuts through strong winds for maximum casting distance, gets down to deep-feeding fish quickly, and maintains proper swimming action even in rough seas and strong current. Use the classic yo-yo retrieve with aggressive rod pumps to create an erratic darting motion that triggers strikes from trophy pelagics. The substantial weight also helps maintain bottom contact when working deeper structure or fishing in areas with strong current.
Long-Range and Offshore Applications
Whether you’re on a long-range trip targeting bluefin and yellowfin tuna on distant banks, working offshore seamounts for wahoo and big yellowtail, casting to cow tuna in wide-open bites, pursuing trophy dorado around floating debris in blue water, or fishing deep structure in challenging conditions, the PL-68 delivers the performance serious offshore anglers demand. The extreme weight is ideal for windy days when lighter irons can’t reach feeding fish, deep-water situations where you need to get down fast, and trophy fish that require heavy-duty tackle.
