Sea Witch Heads

Sea witch heads are the foundation of one of the most productive offshore trolling lures ever made. These 1/2oz liquid-painted lead heads come in 8 colors and hold up trip after trip in harsh saltwater conditions. Slide one onto a length of mylar sea witch hair, rig it in front of a ballyhoo, and you have a combination that has put mahi, sailfish, tuna, and wahoo in the box for decades. The liquid paint process bonds color directly to the lead, so it won't chip, crack, or peel the way spray-painted heads do. At $2.99 each, you can stock every color in your tackle bag without thinking twice.
  • Weight: 1/2oz each
  • Colors: 8 options (Black, White, Bright Red, Chartreuse, Blue, Green, Neon Pink, Purple)
  • Shapes: Blunt and bullet profiles available
  • Finish: Liquid-painted lead for maximum durability
  • Origin: Made in USA
  • Use: Pair with mylar hair + ballyhoo for complete trolling lure

Epic Fishing Co Deep Drop Weights - Hand-Poured Lead Sinker - Tilefish Grouper Snowy
David F.
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.

Build Your Own Lucky Trolling Combo

Every offshore angler has that one lure combo they trust more than anything else in the spread. Building your own sea witch starts here. Pick a head color that matches your local bait profile or go bright to trigger reaction strikes. Thread on a bundle of mylar sea witch hair for flash and movement. Rig it ahead of a fresh ballyhoo on a pin rig and you have a trolling presentation that flat-out catches fish from the Gulf Stream to the Pacific. Mahi hammer chartreuse and pink. Tuna eat dark colors pulled at 6 to 8 knots. Sailfish can't resist a white sea witch and ballyhoo combo skipping in the wake. At $2.99 per head, you can build a full color rotation for under $25 and have the confidence that your lures are exactly the way you want them.

Liquid-Painted Lead, Built to Last

These heads are liquid-painted, not sprayed. The color bonds directly into the lead surface, creating a finish that resists chipping, fading, and saltwater corrosion. You will get dozens of trips out of a single head before the paint shows any wear. That durability matters when you are trolling 6+ hours a day in open ocean conditions.

8 Colors for Every Condition

Black, White, Bright Red, Chartreuse, Blue, Green, Neon Pink, and Purple. That covers clean blue water (white, blue, purple), dirty green water (chartreuse, green), low light (black, bright red), and high-vis reaction colors (neon pink). Match your head color to the mylar hair color or mix and match for contrast. Most experienced captains carry at least 4 colors rigged and ready.

Complete Presentation: Head + Hair + Ballyhoo

A sea witch head by itself is just the starting point. Thread sea witch hair onto the head for flash and profile, then rig the whole thing in front of a ballyhoo using a pin rig. That three-part combo (head, hair, bait) is one of the most proven offshore trolling setups in the game. It works from flat lines to outriggers, at speeds from 5 to 9 knots.

How to Build a Sea Witch Trolling Lure

Step 1: Thread your leader line through the sea witch head from nose to tail. Use 80 to 130lb mono or fluorocarbon leader depending on your target species.

Step 2: Slide a bundle of mylar sea witch hair onto the leader behind the head. Fan the strands out evenly around the shank for a full profile.

Step 3: Tie or crimp your hook (7/0 to 9/0 circle or J-hook) to the end of the leader. Leave 2 to 3 inches of shank exposed behind the hair.

Step 4: Pin-rig a fresh or fresh-frozen ballyhoo onto the hook using an Epic Ballyhoo Pin Rig. Wrap the bait's bill tight with copper wire.

Step 5: Pull the sea witch head snug against the hair and ballyhoo. Your finished lure should be 10 to 14 inches total. Deploy at 5 to 8 knots and watch the spread.

Recommended Pairing Sea Witch Hair (Mylar) + Ballyhoo Pin Rig
What size sea witch head should I use for mahi? +
The 1/2oz size is the go-to for mahi (dolphin). It's light enough to give the lure a natural swimming action at trolling speeds between 5 and 8 knots. Pair it with bright colors like chartreuse or neon pink. Check our mahi fishing guide for full rigging details.
What is the difference between blunt and bullet sea witch heads? +
Blunt heads push more water and create a wider wobble at slower trolling speeds (4 to 6 knots). Bullet heads track straighter and perform better at higher speeds (6 to 9 knots). Most anglers carry both shapes and match them to their trolling speed and target species.
Do I need sea witch hair to use these heads? +
Technically no, but you absolutely should use it. The sea witch hair (mylar) adds flash, color, and a flowing profile that triggers strikes. A bare head in front of a ballyhoo will catch fish, but adding hair makes it 2 to 3 times more effective.
What colors work best for tuna? +
Black, purple, and blue are the top tuna producers. Tuna feed heavily on squid, and dark-colored sea witches mimic that profile perfectly. Run them at 6 to 8 knots on flat lines or rigger positions. Our tuna fishing guide breaks down the full color and rigging strategy.
How do I rig a sea witch with ballyhoo? +
Thread your leader through the head, add mylar hair, tie your hook, then pin-rig a ballyhoo with an Epic Ballyhoo Pin Rig. The full step-by-step is in our ballyhoo rigging guide.
Will the paint chip off in saltwater? +
These heads are liquid-painted, not sprayed. The paint bonds directly to the lead, which makes it significantly more durable than standard coatings. You will get dozens of trips before seeing any wear. Rinse with fresh water after each trip to maximize the finish life. Check our trolling lure guide for more on color selection.
Where should I run sea witches in my trolling spread? +
Sea witches work in every position. They are especially deadly on flat lines and short rigger positions where they skip and dart just under the surface. For a full spread layout, read our trolling spread guide.
Can I use sea witch heads for sailfish? +
Absolutely. White and blue sea witches in front of ballyhoo are one of the most proven sailfish presentations in the Atlantic. Troll at 5 to 7 knots with a circle hook for clean releases. Our sailfish fishing guide has the complete rigging and spread setup.
