Why TrollTrue

Built To Handle Whatever's Running

Four patented design elements, engineered around how offshore gamefish actually strike — not built around one species, so the same rig works the whole season.

Two-Step Rigging

Skip the Pin-Rig

Hook the bait, slide the lure on. No pin-rigging, bait springs, copper wire, or rubber bands — anyone on the boat can rig like a pro.

Keel Weighted

No Spinning, No Missed Strikes

Keeps the bait upright and swimming true at trolling speed, so it looks natural the moment a fish closes in — whatever species is running that day.

Slotted Head

Runs Any Hook Style

Accommodates treble, circle, or J-hooks, so your rig matches how the fish are striking rather than the other way around.

Lead Construction

Built for Offshore Conditions

Enough weight to control ballyhoo or cigar minnows in the chop, with a powder-coated finish that holds up trip after trip.

See It In The Water

Watch The Rig Swim Before You Buy

No guesswork on presentation — see exactly how the rig tracks and how to deploy it behind the boat, with any offshore bait you're running.

★★★★★

“Great lures and service”

Just used for the first time, caught several fish. Completely satisfied. Package came in damaged and missing some pieces, called and they sent new ones out immediately. Will definitely order again.

★★★★★

“Easy to rig and very quick”

Baits run very well in the water. Fished out of Hatteras this past week. TrollTrue got me a 44 inch Bull Dolphin last Monday.

★★★★★

“Got our limit”

This is the third year for me using TrollTrue. Simply the easiest product on the market to use. We hit our limit trolling off the Marathon Humps.

Offshore Trolling FAQ

Questions From The Spread

What are my options for rigging TrollTrue offshore trolling lures?

Most anglers will have the best results using the TrollTrue 60 lb rigging in either monofilament or 7-strand wire. This rigging consists of a 4/0 live bait hook as the nose hook and a Size 1 4X treble hook as the trailer hook.  This rigging is recommended up to 30 lbs of drag.

 

100 lb rigging is available in monofilament, or 7-strand wire.  The nose hook is always a 4/0 live bait hook as that is what fits the lures.  Trailer hooks are available is a variety of sizes and styles including treble hooks, circle hooks, and J-hooks.

Wire or monofilament for offshore trolling rigs?

It depends what's running. Toothy species like king mackerel and wahoo call for 7-strand wire, since straight mono can get cut off. For mahi, tuna, and most other offshore species, monofilament or works best. TrollTrue rigs are available in either, up to 100 lb test in custom builds.

Ballyhoo or cigar minnows — which work better?

Both work well with TrollTrue rigs. Ballyhoo tend to swim best around 6-8 knots. Cigar minnows are stiffer and more fragile, and will wash out at higher speeds — they need to troll at 4-5 knots.  Ballyhoo will always swim  better than cigar minnows because of their more slender and flexible bodies.

Where does the fish actually get hooked?

On the trailer (stinger) hook. The nose hook's only job is holding the baitfish in place, the same role a pin plays in a traditional pin-rig — it has no effect on the strength of the rig.

Can I run a skirt with a TrollTrue offshore trolling rig?

Yes — TrollTrue rigs are left open specifically for optional skirts. Slimmer options like squid skirts tend to work best since they add flash without restricting the water flow that keeps the bait swimming naturally.
