The Basix Baiting Needle can be used with pretty much any bait, as it is sharp and strong, meaning that it can be pushed through most harder baits without fear of splitting them. The ‘crook’ on the end has been designed to hold your hair in place whilst the bait is threaded onto it, off of the needle, but without danger of it fraying braided materials or causing them to separate, which can make it hard to insert a hair stop. The bright green handle has been ergonomically designed, and should you drop it on the ground makes it easier to find. The chrome plated needle has been designed to last and won’t rust.
