Fishbites Longer Lasting E-Z Shrimp Saltwater Bait Strips
The Fishbites Longer Lasting E-Z Shrimp gives anglers an easy, mess-free way to fish with one of the most productive saltwater baits available. Infused with proven shrimp scent, these artificial bait strips are perfect for surf, pier, and inshore fishing throughout Hatteras Island and the Outer Banks. Simply cut a piece to the desired size, hook it, and cast—it's that easy.
Each pack contains two 1/2-inch wide by approximately 12-inch long bait ribbons that can be trimmed for a variety of rigs and presentations. 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 aggressive bait-stealing fish. Fish it on a bare hook or as a trailer on your favorite jig or skirt. For best performance, Fishbites recommends using E-Z Shrimp in water temperatures above 65°F.
