All Offshore Trolling Lures

Offshore trolling lures for full spreads - daisy chains, flyers, skirts, jets, and spoons. Build a clean 5 to 7 bait pattern for mahi, tuna, wahoo, and billfish with proven baits that track straight and get crushed.

FAQ - All Offshore Trolling Lures

1. How do I set up a basic offshore trolling spread?

Run two short, two long, and a shotgun, plus a teaser or chain. Our trolling spread guide breaks it down step by step.

2. Daisy chain or single lure - which is better?

Daisy chains pull fish in, singles get the hook. Use a chain like the schoolie daisy chain and follow it with a hook bait in the same lane.

3. What size skirts should I run offshore?

Most offshore spreads use 9 to 13 inch skirts. Smaller baits for mahi and schoolie tuna, larger for marlin and big tuna.

4. What trolling speed works for offshore lures?

Most lures run clean at 6 to 9 knots. Heavier jets can handle more speed, lighter skirts need a slower pull.

5. What lures are best for mahi and tuna?

For mahi, a Mahi Madness and a small chain work well. For tuna, add a flying fish lure in the long position.

6. Do spoons work offshore?

Yes. A mini spreader bar with spoon is a steady producer when fish are on smaller bait.

How to Build an Offshore Trolling Spread

Build your core pattern. A 5 to 7 bait spread covers the water without tangles. Run two short baits, two long baits, a shotgun, and one teaser. Use a chain like the schoolie daisy chain to pull fish up and a hook bait behind it to seal the deal.

Mix lure styles. A flyer like the Islamorada flyer gives a big profile, while a jet or wedge like the Blue Water Candy Wedgie runs clean in rough water. Add a spoon bar such as the mini spreader bar when tuna or mahi are on small bait.

Dial in skirt size. Most offshore baits run 9 to 13 inch skirts. Smaller for mahi and schoolie tuna, larger for big tuna and billfish. Adjust based on the bait in the water and the fish you are seeing.

Watch the wake. Lures should track clean, not blow out. If a bait skips or rolls, move it to a different position or slow down. For a full layout, use our trolling spread guide.

Better than advertised

I didn't really know what to expect as I usually get my sinkers at a beachshop. These were better. Clean and new looking as if just pored. Very satisfied with my purchase!

Epic Fishing Co Deep Drop Weights - Hand-Poured Lead Sinker - Tilefish Grouper Snowy
David F.
Perfect measurements and weight

Used this differently than its intended design. I made raft oars counter balances from them. Previously used steel 4lb mounted on the exterior near the grips. These I was able to install into the shaft and at 5lbs was able to get the weight away from the grips. Both oars took about 30 minutes. Another bonus is the seller got the weights to me in 4 days vice 12 Amazon predicted.

great bonito bait

Used these jigs this week and crushed the bonito on the east coast. This is a good bait to mimic the small bait fish in our area. Also great pack for a 2 pack. I bought a few different colors.

Awesome bait for Hybrid striped Bass.

Purchased these and first trip out boated several very nice Hybrids. The fish were in 5-7lb range. The bait falls fast and the hooks are very sharp for solid hook ups. Glad I had an extra one because I gave it to my buddy in the boat and he immediately hooked up. These baits worked so well, I ordered several more. I also referred several of my friends to the site to order this bait.
