Catfish teasers are designed to trigger the curiosity and aggression of catfish. Bright colours, vibration and sometimes built-in rattles make them effective lures for anglers who fish actively for these powerful freshwater predators.
What are catfish teasers?
A teaser is a lure or rig component with a striking profile and plenty of movement. Many models use fringes, rubber tentacles, blades or rattles to create visual and acoustic triggers underwater. This can provoke catfish even when they are holding close to the bottom.
When should you use a teaser?
Teasers are especially effective in still or slow-moving water such as deep lakes, canals and river sections. They work well for vertical fishing from a boat, with a clonk, or as an extra trigger above a baitfish rig.
Choose the right model
In coloured water or low visibility, a bright or noisy teaser can help catfish locate your presentation. Match the weight and style to your depth, current and technique.
Combine catfish teasers with catfish lures, catfish rigs, catfish hooks and catfish reels.
