Joe Shute "Witch" Style Ballyhoo Skirts

Joe Shute Ballyhoo Skirts are a staple for tuna fishermen in the Northeast. These lures are the top choice to be used as a skirt for ballyhoo rigging to help a ballyhoo run properly and give it added flash and color in the water. This is an excellent size for mahi-mahi. Aside from ballyhoo rigging, you can also run these lures rigged with a soft plastic trailer such as a Hogy, Ron-Z, or Got Stryper pin tail (this configuraton is very popular for billfish operations). 

If you choose to have this lure rigged by our team of professionals, you have the option for either pin-rigged (for "rubber band" use), or wire-rigged with 12-14" of rigging wire out of the crimp. You have a choice of monofilament and fluorocarbon rigging options as well! The PRO SERIES features an extra long 20 foot fluorocarbon leader, with a Wind-On Swivel, and an Owner Jobu Hook. The standard PRO series features a wire rig, however we do offer them in a pin rig as well.
