Let customers speak for us
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!
I’m making my own mojo rigs with the hair. It went on beautiful such a nice presentation.
Shipping was quick and reasonable shipping rates.price of merchandise I ordered was below big box stores and more importantly He had it in stock.
I was very sstisfied.
love the set up, I have not rigged them up yet but I can't what to try them on some of my new Lure's, I don't what to miss a FISH this year.
I ordered bulk line and received it in a timely manner.Great company and I will order more fishing tackle as needed..Capt.Tom
I use it for more then jigs it takes place of circle clips and swivels
Great service and on-time delivery
Even received a phone call mentioning that I had my order placed twice so that I could actually get it straightened out and received exactly what I asked for
Best UV Sea Witch hair available. Measure out the hair on scale prior to tying. That way it is balanced out. Capt. Ryan Van Fleet Good Karma Sportfishing-Florida Keys. Wahoo love this stuff.
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.
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.
These are the best looking skirts. They’re also effective and durable.
Absolutely by far the best leader line I have used on my Rigs
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.
Caught limit on sea bass first day using lures. Highly recommend!
Perfect gaff hook to make your own gaff. Sharp and sturdy!
Outrun Every Wahoo on the Troll
The Axis solves all three problems. The high polish stainless steel head won't crack, chip, or corrode, and the 12oz weight keeps it digging even at 18 knots. We rig it on 480lb stainless steel cable because wahoo teeth shred mono and fluorocarbon on contact. The single hook stiff rig with an 8/0 Southern Tuna hook keeps the presentation clean and the hookup ratio high. No dangling skirts, no fouled hooks.
We designed the Axis in-house and rig every one by hand in North Carolina. It's the same lure our team runs on tournament days. Five UV color patterns cover everything from dirty green water (Mahi UV, Red/Green UV) to clean blue offshore conditions (Blue/Purple/White UV, Purple/Black/Gold UV). At $69.99, it's a fraction of the price of comparable stainless wahoo lures, and it shows up ready to fish.
High Polish Stainless Steel Construction
UV Double Skirts in 5 Color Patterns
Pre-Rigged 480lb Cable and 8/0 Hook
How to Fish the Axis Wahoo Lure
1. Clip the Axis to your snap swivel on a 50-80lb trolling rod. No additional leader needed - it's already rigged on 6ft of 480lb stainless cable.
2. Set your trolling speed between 8 and 14 knots to start. The Axis runs well up to 18 knots, but 10-14 is the sweet spot for most wahoo grounds.
3. Run it from a flat line or outrigger position, 50-100ft back. For deeper runs, add a 16-24oz trolling sinker ahead of the snap swivel.
4. Mix colors in your spread. Run a dark pattern (Purple/Black/Gold UV) on one side and a bright pattern (Pink/Clear UV or Mahi UV) on the other to let the fish tell you what they want.
5. On the strike, let the fish load the rod before touching it. The single hook stiff rig sets itself at trolling speed. Clear the other lines and fight the fish.
