Pilchard teaser head? Thing is amazing!
Submitted by FishWhisperer on Tue, 2012-03-13 00:44
I've been trying to troll Pilchards for ages and I believe I have finally knocked it out of the park this time. This bait head I've been working on doesn't roll the bait, it SWIMS it. Unbelievable. Trolled a 10 inch Pilchard over 5 mph on video. Posted on You Tube, search - GuideProInc to watch. I call it "Jughead". I've made 3 sizes, sm, med & lg. Have a peek at the vids. You won't belive these things. Critiques and comments welcome.

If I spent half as long fishing , as I do reading this bloody forum , I'd be twice the fisherman I am.

My video footage is limited so all the footage I was able to get of the medium size is what you see. We were trying different places to put the tow hole in the bill. That footage is using the hole lowest on the lip of the bill. I'm sure everyone will be drilling holes and hooking up all kinds of diff stuff to it. You attach the head the same as any other teaser head, run a toothpick thru it. You can adjust the distance from Jughead to hook, along the length of the bait fish with beads, chain swivel or toothpick the hole. The hook acts like a rudder, doesn't leave a mark on the bait.

Meet The Faulkners ...probably heard that a few times. I'll post pics of the actual product as soon as the digital sample is completed. The heads I have now are hand carved and honestly, I am not a Picasso. The finished product will be symetrical and refined. Thanks for the comment.
