The TN Tackle HooHead is the perfect weight ballyhoo lure for running in all conditions from all positions. This lure is perfect for running over a traditionally rigged chin-weighted ballyhoo or split bill ballyhoo for superior bait presentation. The 3oz HooHead is also the perfect choice for running with your favorite artificial tails. This lure is a favorite among the northeast tuna fleet but is also extremely productive when fished around the world for tuna, marlin, and mahi.
Unlike many of the lures in this category, the TN Tackle Hoo Head is a resin lure. Resin lures are more difficult to chip the paint off since there is no paint. The resins are UV stabilized to keep their color for years out in the harsh elements of offshore fishing. The resin composition resists chipping and cracking.
The hole in the back of the lure is oversized. This permits the use of a Ballyhoo spring or a large eye Southern Tuna style hook. The TN Tackle is keel-weighted. The tail stock of the lure has an indicator mark to tell the angler which side of the lure is down. The lure has a piece of heavy-duty chafe tube molded into the lure head. This feature ensures that no burrs or sharp edges inside of the lure will damage the leader material. All TN Tackle Hoo Heads feature mylar flash material to help with a bite response.
The Hoo Head can run well in all positions. We have found that this lure runs better than many of its competitors in rough conditions.
