Quick take

Pre-cut artificial sand flea strips with shrimp scent that hold on the hook in strong tides and surf.

Fishbites Fish'n Strips in the sand flea, mole crab and sand crab scent come as a bag of 15 pre-cut pennant-shaped strips in an orange-flesh color. They are sized for 2/0 and 3/0 hooks and also work for tipping jigs. Surf anglers fishing from the beach, a jetty or a pier can cast them straight from the bag for species like drum, pompano and whiting.

Best for

  • Surf fishing from beach, jetty and pier
  • Pompano, croaker and whiting in breaking waves
  • Situations where live bait washes off in current

Skip if

  • You prefer live bait presentations
  • You fish calm water where bait stays put

Strengths

  • Tough consistency stays on hook through powerful casts
  • Shrimp scent disperses in water and attracts distant fish
  • Pre-cut design ready to use straight from the package

Trade-offs

  • Artificial bait may be less attractive than live during slow bites
  • Scent dissipates over time or with repeated casting
  • Pennant shape catches water current and spins
