Description

The Boofhead is a custom-built lead slider flasher rig perfect for mid to bottom water column reef fishing. It features an oversized 10mm eye on each side, which imitates a real bait fish or squid as well as glow hook flashers for ultimate visibility. This versatile rig is most effective when kept vertical to the boat and slowly retrieved a few times then released to bottom and repeated, causing the lure to “dance”. It can also be used by leaving the rod in a rod holder and letting the boat do all the work.

Field Notes

Use this lead slider flasher rig for reef fishing when you want a lure that stays vertical and works the mid-to-bottom water column. Keep it vertical to the boat and slowly retrieve a few times, then drop it back to the bottom and repeat to make it “dance.” You can also fish it from a rod holder and let the boat movement do the work.

Pros

  • Built for mid-to-bottom reef fishing
  • Glow hook flashers for strong visibility
  • Oversized eye helps imitate baitfish/squid
  • Works with both vertical retrieval and rod-holder/boat drift

Cons

  • Best results require keeping the rig vertical
  • Primarily suited to reef/structure fishing rather than open-water casting
