Billfisher Ballyhoo Bait Springs

Engineered for serious offshore trolling, Billfisher Ballyhoo Bait Springs deliver a superior rigging solution that outperforms conventional copper wire and rubber band methods. These stainless steel springs secure natural baits—ballyhoo and cigar minnows—with precision, maintaining a sealed mouth that resists washout during high-speed runs. Quick to deploy and built to last, they're the professional choice for anglers who demand reliability and efficiency when preparing their trolling spreads. 

Key Features & Benefits

• Rapid Rigging: Eliminates the tedious wrapping of wire; the spring simply screws onto a pin rig to lock the bait in place.
• Durability: Made from high-quality stainless steel to resist corrosion in harsh saltwater environments.
• Secure Hold: Ensures the bait's mouth remains shut, which preserves the bait's natural action and prevents it from spinning or tearing during trolling.
• Versatility: Can be used "naked" or underneath a lure/skirt (like a Sea Witch or Chugger) to add extra protection and attraction. 
• Sizing & Availability
  • Regular (SSRS): Best for standard-sized ballyhoo and cigar minnows.
  • Large (SSLRS): Designed for "Select" or "Horse" ballyhoo and larger natural baits. 

How to Use with a Pin Rig

• Insert Hook: Guide your hook through the gill plate and out the belly of the ballyhoo.
• Seat the Pin: Push the stainless steel pin of your rig up through the lower and upper jaws of the bait.
• Secure with Spring: Slide the spring down the leader and twist it onto the pin until it is snug against the bait's head.
  Final Trim: Clip any excess pin length if necessary to ensure a streamlined profile.
