Draggin Eyes Fishing Lures
Draggin Eyes Fishing Lures and Teasers come in a variety of options. The secret of this lure's success is in
the eyes! The un-rigged versions may be used as ballyhoo covers for trolling offshore, as well as rigged in
tandem as a daisy chain teaser.
Draggin Eyes Lures are available in different sizes. Size options allow the angler to match the lure to
the baits as well as offshore fishing conditions. The smaller Bullet Draggin Eyes "witches" may be used to
rig ribbon fish when slow trolling for kingfish / king mackerel. In addition these "witches" may be used to
rig bonito strips for deep trolling offshore on the downriggers. The bullet shaped heads are best for
subsurface trolling, while the "pusher" heads are best for trolling on the outriggers and flat lines.
We feature all the different color combinations for both geographical differences, as well as offshore conditions. Typically the color selections are based on fishing conditions, while at times geographical differences will dictate specific colors. Here in the SE USA the following colors are suggested:
Blue & White Bright Sunny Days
Pink & White Bright Sunny Days
Pink & Blue Bright Sunny Days
Red & White Bright Sunny Days
Silver Bright Sunny Days
Purple Bright Sunny Days
Green Overcast Days
Chartreuse Overcast Days
Black Overcast Days
Red Overcast Days
Silver Overcast Days
Purple Overcast Days
The following color combinations Pink & White, and Black & Purple are always applicable. These colors should always be part of your initial spread.
Daisy Chains and all teasers in general are an integral part of offshore fishing. Anglers often disregard
the effectiveness of using teasers. Teasers may be used when trolling with slower as well as higher speeds.
We use the bullet & conical head for faster speeds, and the "pusher" "cupped faced" heads for slower.
When trolling offshore always begin trolling at a minimum of 6 knots SOG, taking currents into consideration. Most anglers have a tendency to troll too slow. I personally like to start at 7 to 8 knots. Drop
backs are important, as are transom clips for the flat lines. Lures should be staggered to allow for the
maneuvering of the boat. It is best to use a "meandering pattern" when trolling, this allows the most natural bait presentation allowing the lures to vary their swimming action and speed when turns are made. Keep
in mind that when turning, the lures toward the outside of your turn will skip, while the ones towards the inside will dive. It is these changes that entice the fish to bite! NEVER TROLL STRAIGHT!
