Northland Tackle BFBH1-PR Butterfly Blade Harness Parakeet 60-inch Snell

Overview

The Northland Tackle BFBH1-PR Butterfly Blade Harness in Parakeet offers a versatile, eye-catching setup designed for fresh-water anglers targeting walleyes, jumbo perch, and other game fish. Built around a lightweight polycarbonate body, it features a long Snell/leader and a two-blade design that creates distinct flutter and flash as you pull the rig across structure and open water. Rigged with live bait or soft plastics, it provides a practical, adaptable presentation that many anglers find compelling under varied light and water conditions. While results can vary, the setup is designed to help you explore water efficiently with a calm, controlled motion that stays truer to your line and speed goals.

Key benefits

• Durable polycarbonate construction keeps the rig lightweight yet sturdy against routine boat wake and snag-prone environments.
• 69-inch Snell/leader length provides flexibility for different depths and trolling angles.
• Two blade sizes give you options for different water clarity and target species.
• Parakeet blade color enhances visibility in clear or stained water without being overpowering.
• Slow trolling capability down to 0.25 mph helps you cover water with steady, subtle motion.

Rigging ideas and real-world uses

• Rig live nightcrawlers by placing the bait’s head on the front hook and the tail on the trailer for natural trailing action.
• Try artificial Impulse nightcrawlers for consistent blade motion in low-light or dirty water.
• Use a live leech by hooking the leech’s head on the front hook and the tail on the trailer for a lifelike presentation.
• Combine with slow-trolling boats or drift setups to work along weed edges, shoreline drops, or mid-depth flats.

Overall, the BFBH1-PR is designed to offer an attractive, practical fishing option that aligns with common presentations for walleyes and jumbo perch. Use it as a flexible tool in your tackle box, and adjust your rigging and speed to local conditions. Northland Tackle’s proven design language supports reliable performance while keeping the setup approachable for both seasoned anglers and those building a broad-daylight trolling routine.
