Bulk Wire for Serious Bait Rigging

Tournament days can burn through dozens of ballyhoo. Each bait needs a fresh piece of copper wire for a clean rig. The 1 pound tube gives you enough wire for a full season of casual trolling or a heavy tournament weekend without running out.

The waterproof tube is the same quality as the smaller package, just bigger. Wire stays dry, straight, and ready to use. When the tube is empty, it makes excellent storage for hooks, sleeves, and other small terminal tackle. At $24.99, the per-piece cost is significantly lower than the 50-count tube.

Bulk 1 Pound Supply

Significantly more wire than the 50-piece tube at a better per-unit cost. For anglers who rig frequently, the bulk tube eliminates the annoyance of running out mid-trip.

Same .020 Soft Copper

Identical .020 diameter soft copper as the smaller tube. Easy to wrap, holds shape around bait, and does not corrode against the ballyhoo like steel wire would.

Waterproof Storage

The sealed tube keeps moisture out, preventing oxidation that makes copper brittle. Store it in your boat, garage, or tackle room and the wire stays fresh for the next trip.

How to Rig Ballyhoo with Copper Wire

  1. Thread your hook rig through the ballyhoo
  2. Take a piece of 14 inch copper wire from the tube
  3. Wrap the wire around the bait's bill and hook shank
  4. Make 5-6 tight wraps and twist ends together
  5. Trim excess and test swimming action in water
