How to Fish It

Rig with a small to medium ballyhoo on a 150–200lb fluorocarbon leader. The keel weight does the work — no chin weight needed, though it can be added for extra depth. Best in the short corner or flat line position for a natural baitfish presentation. Check all knots and leader connections before your first drop — this head is built for power and your terminal tackle should match.
