Northland Tackle BFBH2-CTC Butterfly Blade Harness 86in Snell Leader – Clear Tip Chartreuse, Dual Blade Sizes

Overview

The Northland Tackle BFBH2-CTC Butterfly Blade Harness is engineered to deliver consistent action in walleyes, jumbo perch, and other game fish. The clear tip and chartreuse accents enhance visibility in a range of light conditions, while the harness design promotes a balanced, natural trail behind the boat.

Built with a durable polycarbonate body, this harness pairs lightweight construction with long lasting use. The 86 inch Snell/leader length helps you maintain control as you cover water at gentle speeds, and the butterfly blade sits higher on the line to deliver a distinctive glide with slower rotation compared to traditional designs. The result is a subtle, persistent motion that can entice bites without overpowering the target fish.

Engineered for depth and action

The setup offers two blade sizes to tailor depth and motion to the day’s conditions: size #1 at 7/8 inch and size #2 at 1 3/8 inch. This flexibility supports slow trolling down to 0.25 mph, allowing you to explore likely hotspots with a controlled, deliberate pace rather than rapid pass through the water.

• Blade rides higher and spins at slower speeds, yielding a more subtle, inviting action.
• Long 86 inch Snell/leader length keeps the rig at an optimal distance from the boat, reducing tangles during slow retrieves.
• Two blade sizes enable straightforward depth and timing tuning as conditions shift.

Practical rigging ideas

Rig the harness with a nightcrawler for classic drift presentations or pair with artificial Impulse nightcrawlers for consistent action. Don’t overlook a live leech; try hooking the leech head on the front hook and its tail on the trailer for a natural trailing movement.

• Live bait pairing: nightcrawlers provide a traditional scent and motion.
• Artificial nightcrawlers: repeatable action without constant bait switching.
• Leech technique: head on front hook, tail on trailer for a lifelike wiggle.

With two blade options, a robust yet lightweight polycarbonate build, and a generous leader length, the BFBH2-CTC offers versatility across water clarity and fish behavior. The clear tip and chartreuse accents improve visibility across light conditions, while the overall design aims to support effective presentations on the water. Consider this rig as a useful tool in the right conditions, offering possibilities to enhance your fishing setup without promising specific outcomes.
