Favorite lure for trolling for yellowtail?

Does anyone have any recommendations for lures to troll for yellowtail when bait is hard to come by? Also sizes?

Thanks

Nomad DTX *various sizes*

I used to be a Rapala guy, but have since converted to the Nomads!

Nomads are having universal success in multiple fisheries. Yozui and Rapala equivalents are also good options.

X2, I now use a Nomad DTX 140 Mac Tuna and troll it on the Solo Skiff at speeds from 2.2-5.0 mph, depending on water temperature, location of nearest kelp areas and marks on the FF. Most of the time it's 4.0-4.5 mph.

Either a bomber or an X-rap magnum 40. This is of course only if there isn’t live bait available. Can’t beat the real deal
