Fishbites Longer Lasting E-Z Flea Electric Chicken Saltwater Bait Strips
The Fishbites Longer Lasting E-Z Flea Electric Chicken combines the proven fish-catching power of Fishbites' Mole Crab (Sand Flea) formula with the highly visible Electric Chicken color pattern. Designed for anglers targeting surf species that naturally feed on sand fleas, this easy-to-use artificial bait is perfect for fishing the beaches, piers, and inshore waters of Hatteras Island and the Outer Banks.
Each pack contains 1/2-inch wide by approximately 12-inch long bait ribbons that are ready to cut to your preferred size. Simply cut, hook, and cast. The Longer Lasting formula features a durable cloth binder embedded in the center of the bait, helping it stay securely on the hook through repeated casts and the attacks of bait-stealing fish. Fish it on a bare hook or as a trailer on your favorite jig or skirt. Frank & Fran's proudly ships nationwide.
Great bait for spot, croaker, sea mullet and pompano. **Local Tip: dig up some live sand fleas and give the fish a sand flea sandwich with a small piece of fishbites and a live sand flea. Who can resist a fresh sandwich? Plus if a bait stealer takes your sand flea you still have bait on the hook.
