Epic Fishing Co Squid & Flaps Dredge
The Epic Fishing Co Squid & Flaps Dredge combines squid profile, flap-style action, flash, and color on a 38-inch heavy dredge bar. It gives your spread a compact bait-school look with extra movement, which helps get more eyes on the spread from marlin, tuna, mahi, wahoo, and sailfish.
- Complete squid and flaps offshore teaser system
- 38-inch heavy dredge bar
- Inner drops build bait-school volume
- Outer drops add extra movement and chase look
- 400 lb mono rigging keeps it manageable for real offshore crews
One Dredge, More Motion in the Spread
The Squid & Flaps Dredge gives you two things at once: the bait-school profile of a squid dredge and extra movement from the flap drops. That combination helps make the teaser look alive in the water and gives fish more reason to track into the spread.
Run it from a dredge boom, teaser reel, bridge line, or strong flat-line position when you want more commotion without adding another hooked bait.

Squid + Flaps Action
Squid create the bait-school profile. Flaps add the swimming and chasing action that makes the dredge look alive behind the boat.
Lightweight 400 lb Mono
400 lb monofilament keeps drag manageable for center consoles and offshore trolling boats while giving the dredge a clean swimming profile.
38-Inch Heavy Dredge Bar
The 38-inch heavy bar gives the dredge spread and backbone without turning it into a hard-to-pull commercial-size setup.
How to Run the Squid & Flaps Dredge
1. Attach the dredge to your teaser line, dredge boom, bridge line, or teaser reel.
2. Add a dredge weight if you want the teaser running below the surface.
3. Let it out gradually at trolling speed until it settles and tracks cleanly.
4. Keep it in water where the profile stays visible and the dredge is not rolling out.
5. Use it to draw attention into the spread and toward the baits you actually want eaten.
6. Rinse it down and store it clean after the trip.

How do I deploy this dredge? +
Attach it to a dredge line, teaser reel, bridge line, or another strong teaser position and let it settle into clean water at trolling speed. Add a dredge weight when you want it to run lower in the water column.
What fish will this attract? +
This dredge is built for marlin, sailfish, tuna, mahi, and wahoo. It works best in offshore trolling spreads where you want more bait-school profile and motion behind the boat.
What trolling speed should I run? +
Most crews will tune this with the rest of the trolling spread rather than chasing one exact number. Start in your normal trolling range, then adjust speed and line length until the dredge swims clean and stays visible.
Do I need a dredge weight? +
Use a dredge weight when you want the teaser running below the surface or when rougher water makes it harder to keep the dredge where you want it. Running it higher without added weight can also make sense depending on your spread.
Can a center console pull this? +
Yes, if you have the right pulling point and the rest of the teaser setup to manage it cleanly. The 38-inch bar and 400 lb mono rigging keep it more manageable than many bulkier dredges.
What colors are available? +
Pink, Red, Electric Blue, and Chartreuse. Brighter colors can help in dirty water or low light, while blue often fits cleaner offshore water well.
