Or, do you want the best baits rigged the proven way? Wondering how to rig ballyhoo for trolling? Here is a short summary of the selection process: In this video we specifically discuss ballyhoo colors, firmness, eyes and beaks. These all play a big factor once you get out on the water. You need a good blue/green color on top of the bait. Too much bright blue will not hold up well while trolling. An orange color on the tail of the Ballyhoo is a good sign. You will also need to look for firmness in the stomach area and make sure the eyes are clear and not foggy as well as making sure the beaks are not broken!
