Bigger Skirts for Bigger Presentations

When you need a larger profile in the spread, the 9" octopus skirt delivers. The extra inch over the 8" version creates more tentacle action and a bigger silhouette that attracts attention from farther away. This size is popular for large lure heads targeting marlin, large tuna, and wahoo.

The UV enhancement makes a measurable difference. At trolling depth, natural light fades. UV-enhanced materials absorb ultraviolet wavelengths and re-emit visible light, creating a glow effect that fish can detect at greater distances than standard skirts.

9" Larger Profile

The extra length creates more tentacle movement and a bigger visual footprint in the water. Ideal for large lure heads and when targeting bigger offshore species that key on larger baits.

UV-Enhanced Glow

Absorbs UV light and converts it to visible wavelengths. Fish detect this glow at depth where standard colors appear muted. A real advantage in deep trolling and low-light conditions.

Easy Installation

The soft material stretches over lure heads without tearing and recovers to hold securely. No need for glue or tools. A dab of soap on the head makes installation even smoother.

How to Install 9" Octopus Skirts

  1. Remove old or damaged skirts from the lure head
  2. Clean the lure head and post
  3. Apply a small amount of dish soap to the head as lubricant
  4. Stretch the inner skirt over the head and seat at the shoulder
  5. Add the outer skirt on top and adjust tentacle alignment

Specs & Common Questions

Everything you need to know before you buy

Brand Epic Fishing Co.
Length 9 inches
UV Enhanced Yes
Pack Quantity 2
Application Lure re-skirting, custom builds
Should I get 8 inch or 9 inch skirts? +
Match skirt size to your lure head. Bigger heads and offshore applications suit the 9". Smaller heads and nearshore use work better with 8" skirts. See our lure supplies.
What does UV-enhanced mean? +
The material absorbs ultraviolet light and re-emits it as visible glow. Fish can detect UV wavelengths, so UV-enhanced skirts appear brighter, especially at depth. Our lure guide covers this.
How do I re-skirt a lure? +
Slide off the old skirt, clean the head, and stretch the new skirt over the head. Use a drop of dish soap as lubricant. Place the inner skirt first, then the outer. See our supplies section.
What colors for marlin? +
Blue/white, black/purple, and green/yellow are classic marlin combinations. Run different colors in your spread to find the hot pattern. Our marlin guide covers lure selection.
Can I use these on daisy chains? +
Yes. They work well on daisy chains, spreader bars, and standalone lure heads. The 9" size provides good visual presence as a teaser or stinger bait. Browse our trolling collection.
How many packs do I need? +
One pack gives you inner and outer skirts for one lure. Figure how many lures you need to re-skirt and buy accordingly. At this price, having extra colors on hand is smart. See all skirts and supplies.
