Collection: WB-800 Bait Retaining Wire

The WB-800 Bait Retaining Wire is a stainless wire keeper form designed for compatible jig molds that accept WB800 wire bait keeper inserts. When molded into a jighead, the WB-800 helps hold soft-plastic trailers in place, reducing trailer slippage and helping keep your finished jighead build clean, secure, and consistent.

This small component makes a big difference for lure builders. Craw trailers, chunks, creature baits, and compact soft plastics can slide down the hook after repeated casts, skips, hops, drags, and hooksets. A molded-in WB-800 wire keeper gives the trailer a secure gripping point while maintaining a clean jighead profile.

The WB-800 is commonly used in compatible Do-It style jig molds, including weedless football jig applications that accept the WB800 insert. It is a smart choice for custom jig builders, tackle makers, and anglers who pour their own jigheads and want a professional bait-retention system without relying only on glue or bulky molded lead barbs.

The WB-800 bait retaining wire sold by LunkrBytes is proudly made in the U.S.A.
