Nytro Barbed Bait Spike Ultrafine

Product Details and Uses

The Nytro Barbed Bait Spike Ultrafine is an absolute must-have for the modern match and commercial angler looking to present delicate baits flawlessly. Precision-engineered with an ultra-fine 8mm profile, this micro spike penetrates the softest and smallest of hookbaits without splitting or damaging them. Constructed from lightweight hi-carbon steel, it adds virtually zero weight to your presentation, ensuring your bait behaves naturally underwater to fool even the wariest of fish.

What truly sets this bait spike apart is the micro-barbed shaft. This tiny addition provides an incredibly secure hold, guaranteeing your bait stays firmly in place during forceful casts or aggressive plucks from nuisance fish. Finished with a stealthy, wear-resistant black nickel coating for maximum durability and low visibility, the Nytro Ultrafine Spike is the ultimate solution for micro wafters, soft pellets, and delicate boilies. Plus, it comes supplied in planet-friendly packaging, drastically reducing single-use plastics.

Why Choose the Nytro Ultrafine Bait Spike?

• Zero Splitting: The ultra-fine diameter effortlessly pierces delicate 4mm and 6mm baits that standard spikes would split in half.

• Maximum Security: The micro-barb grips the internal core of your bait, preventing it from tearing off on the cast or upon impact with the water.

• Natural Presentation: The lightweight hi-carbon construction ensures your wafters and soft hookbaits perfectly counterbalance your hook without being weighed down.

• Stealth Finish: The black nickel coating eliminates underwater glare, ensuring highly pressured fish are not spooked by your terminal tackle.

• Eco-Conscious: Packaged with the environment in mind, utilizing less plastic to help protect the waters we love to fish.

Gerrys Fishing Pro Tip

Here at Gerrys, we highly recommend tying these ultra-fine spikes onto your hair rig using a small sliding micro rig ring or a tiny loop. When fishing with very soft 4mm or 6mm expander pellets, gently push the spike in through the flat end of the pellet rather than the side. The micro-barb will grip the densest part of the bait, and the ultra-fine point will ensure it stays intact, giving you total confidence that your bait is perfectly presented when it hits the bottom!

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

• Will this spike split small 4mm wafters? Not at all. The Nytro Ultrafine has been specifically designed with a micro-diameter to pierce the smallest and most fragile baits on the market without splitting them.

• Does the barb make it hard to change baits? No, the barb is a micro-barb. It is large enough to prevent the bait from flying off during a cast, but small enough that you can easily pull the old bait off and slide a new one on without damaging the spike or your hair rig.

• How do I attach the spike to my hooklink? You can attach it by tying a simple knotless knot and leaving a hair loop, then threading the spike onto the loop. Alternatively, you can tie it directly to the hair using a standard overhand loop knot through the eye of the spike
