Why these fit

For offshore winter fishing, the most practical match here is a smaller, subtler trolling spread: the Fathom Offshore Bubble Trouble Small 5" Trolling Lure and Fathom Offshore Scream Machine Medium 11" Trolling Lure give you flash, pop, and skirted profile without going oversized.

If you want a ready-to-run option, the Fathom Offshore Bubble Trouble Small 5" Pre- Rigged Trolling Lure is a simple choice for ballyhoo or dead-bait spreads. The Fathom Offshore Scream Machine Small 9" Trolling Lure is also a good smaller offshore teaser/lure when fish want a cleaner, less aggressive presentation.

For added attraction in rougher water or lower light, Fathom Offshore UV Natural Copper Brown Vivid Squid can help build a squid chain or spreader-bar style spread.

Technique notes

• Run the smaller skirted lures in the long rigger or shotgun positions.
• Typical speed for these trolling lures is about 4-8 knots, depending on lure and spread.
• Use the Fathom Offshore Bubble Trouble Small 5" Pre- Rigged Trolling Lure when you want a quick rig with bait-style presentation.
• Add Fathom Offshore UV Natural Copper Brown Vivid Squid to dredges, chains, or spreader bars for extra flutter and realism.
• If you’re fishing heavy grass, keep the spread cleaner and avoid overly bulky teasers that can collect debris.

When to switch

• Switch to larger plunger-style lures only if you’re specifically targeting bigger billfish and the fish are responding to more surface commotion.
• Switch to squid teasers or chains when fish are following but not committing.
• Switch to jigs if you need to fish below the surface or work around weed lines and grass more directly.
• If the bite is slow in winter, downsize before you upsize.
