Blue Water Fishing: Blue Water Candy Lures

Blue Water Candy lures built for king mackerel, wahoo, mahi, and tuna. Wedgies, skirts, and king rigs are proven producers along the Carolina coast. If you want baits that run clean and get bit, this is the lineup.

FAQ - Blue Water Candy Lures

1. What Blue Water Candy lure should I start with?

Start with the Wedgie and a featherweight skirt. They cover most offshore trolling spreads.

2. Do Blue Water Candy lures work for king mackerel?

Yes. The king rigs and small skirts are designed for kings and planer spreads.

3. What trolling speed should I run?

Most skirts and wedges run clean at 5 to 8 knots. If you are high speed trolling for wahoo, use the heavier heads and keep speed steady.

4. Rigged or unrigged - which should I buy?

Rigged lures save time and are ready to fish. Unrigged lures let you choose your own hooks and leader. Many anglers keep both on board.

5. What colors should I run first?

Blue and white, pink and white, and black and purple are the staples. Start there and rotate based on light and water color.

6. Are these lures good for mahi?

Yes. A Mahi Madness or small skirt is a go to dolphin bait.

How to Choose Blue Water Candy Lures

Cover the spread. A Wedgie in the short corner and a skirted bait in the long corner gives you two proven looks. Add a king rig if you are targeting kings or running planers.

Match speed to the head. Light skirts run best at 5 to 8 knots. Heavier heads and wedges can handle more speed and rough water.

Choose colors with contrast. Blue and white and pink and white are reliable. Add a dark color like black and purple for high sun or clear water.

Keep a few rigged baits ready. When the bite turns on, a rigged lure saves time and keeps baits in the water. Use unrigged baits for custom hook sets.

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.

I have caught sizable schoolies on the smaller pink tube jigs and look forward to trying the heavier ones off shore, the stripers can’t resist them!

Quick delivery, great service

I live six hours from my boat in Swansboro and want my gear perfect when I step onto it a few times a month. I’ve counted on TheTackleRoom for many years to make sure I get what I need, when I need it before I head to the coast, and they have always delivered. I just received another order and am glad the level of service has stayed top notch.
