Description

The Flatliner Series 8oz is the tactical choice for serious offshore anglers. Engineered for precision and built to endure, this 8oz weighted head provides the perfect balance for a life-like bait presentation. Key Benefits for Your Spread: Strategic Sinking: Heaviest standard head designed to reach fish that refuse to rise to a surface spread. Mark and Drop: Perfect for plunging into the water column when fish are seen on sonar without tangling your spread. Natural Swim Action: Keel-weighted to mimic a descending, wounded baitfish, triggering reactive strikes from lazy predators. Tournament Grade: Engineered for high-diameter fluorocarbon leaders and large ballyhoo or 10" RonZ soft plastics. Pro Trolling Tip: Rig the 8oz Flatliner with a large ballyhoo. Its weight overcomes leader drag, keeping the bait 'in the face' of deep-dwelling big game species. Technical Specifications: Weight: 8oz Target Species: Bigeye, Giant Bluefin Tuna Trolling Speed: 6-8 Knots Construction: Premium Lead Head, Hand-Tied Hair & Mylar Flash

Field Notes

Use this 8oz weighted head as part of a deep offshore trolling spread when tuna are holding below surface and won’t rise. Rig with a large ballyhoo (or a 10" RonZ soft plastic) and troll around 6–8 knots so the bait stays in the strike zone and tracks naturally as it sinks.

Pros

  • 8oz head designed for deep, strategic sinking
  • Keel-weighted design mimics a descending wounded baitfish
  • Lead head with hand-tied hair & mylar flash for added attraction
  • Built for precision and durability in offshore trolling

Cons

  • Heavy (8oz) requires appropriate tackle/leader setup for offshore trolling
  • Best suited to deep-dwelling offshore species rather than near-surface fishing
