Bait Rigging Videos

What separates anglers who consistently boat fish from those who watch their baits get ignored or thrown? The answer often comes down to bait rigging techniques. Proper hook placement, leader selection, and presentation methods directly affect how natural your bait swims, how long it stays lively, and whether fish commit to the strike. These video courses break down essential rigging methods for both offshore and inshore saltwater fishing, covering everything from ballyhoo preparation for trolling to live shrimp hooking for sight casting redfish. You'll see exactly how professional captains rig baits for specific situations, species, and water conditions.

The instruction covers the full spectrum of saltwater bait rigging. Learn how to cut and rig strip baits from bonito, mackerel, or dolphin for wahoo and tuna. Watch step-by-step ballyhoo rigging techniques using different hook styles, wire configurations, and skirt combinations for trolling spread positions. See multiple methods for hooking live baits like pinfish, shrimp, pilchards, and blue runners depending on whether you're freelining, using kites, or bottom fishing. Each video demonstrates the specific tools, materials, and sequences that produce properly rigged baits with maximum swimming action and durability. These techniques apply whether you're targeting billfish offshore, kingfish on the troll, or snook around mangrove shorelines.
