Black Cat Dead Bait Rig 2m 8/0

Black Cat Dead Bait Rig — effortless deadbait presentation in current

This ready-made catfish rig by Stefan Seuß positions your deadbait just above the riverbed while an integrated winged float creates enticing movement in flowing water.

Natural swirling action in the current

The X-Strong Winged U-Float sits directly above your bait and rotates in the flow, generating attractive turbulence that mimics a struggling baitfish. This movement draws catfish from a distance and triggers strikes even in moderate to strong current.

Secure two-hook system for reliable hook-ups

Your deadbait is anchored with a front single hook (8/0) through the head and a 4/0 Double Ghost Hook in the tail. This dual-anchor setup keeps the bait stable in current, prevents spinning, and delivers solid hook penetration on the take.
