Northland Tackle SHT2 Sting'R Hook Bait 2in | Quick-Clip Treble for Jigs & Spoons

Maximize jigging potential with the Northland Tackle SHT2 Sting'R Hook Bait

The SHT2 Sting'R Hook Bait is a compact 2 inch lure accessory designed to pair with your favorite jig, spinner or spoon. Built around a durable 12 lb leader and a sharp treble hook, it features a fast-snap connector for quick rigging and swift changes on the water. Since its introduction in 1987, anglers have noted bite-rate improvements in the 30-50 percent range when using this rig in appropriate water clarity and bottom conditions.

How it works is straightforward yet effective. The bait tucks into the top of the lure, with a treble tine that can anchor into the bait. If a fish misses, the stinger is free to swing, adding a subtle, enticing action that can spark a follow-up bite. The setup shines when jigging on clean bottoms where lure presentation matters, and its compact profile helps keep lures buoyant and moving with the current.

Note that results vary with water clarity, temperature, and fish mood. The Sting'R Hook Bait is designed as a performance-enhancing accessory, not a guarantee of results.
