Needlefish Slow Sink 7" ~1.75oz

247 Lures has always been a big fan of Needlefish plugs! This Needlefish was designed at 7.25″ long and weighs between 1.6-1.8oz to be just the right size whether you’re fishing from boat or from shore. Our 7” Needlefish is weighted to sink more slowly than most others on the market. This allows the 247 Needlefish to swim perfectly in that shallow water boulder field or sandy beach where the big stripers love to feed.

Cast it out, let it sink to your desired depth, and retrieve slowly. Give it a twitch occasionally to flash the underbelly sideways at the fish.

As of January 2024, all our Needlefish lures - including this 7” model - are being rigged standard with one treble hook on the belly swivel and a custom tied FLAG on the tail loop (no hook on the rear). These can easily be rigged with dressed or undressed single hooks on the rear, or a treble if you prefer. But it is our opinion, in agreement with many respected anglers in the community, that a lure rigged with only one hook is distinctly better for both the striped bass as well as the angler.
