Hand-built in Jacksonville, FL — a bait pump that's lighter than stainless and built to last the season.
Ghost shrimp are one of the most effective surf baits in Florida, and a good pump makes the difference between pumping for 30 minutes and being rigged up in five. The Candy Ghost Shrimp Pump is hand-built by Bryan and Shantel using Florida-manufactured furniture-grade PVC — the same high-quality material used in the Candy Spike lineup.
The 2" high-gloss tube comes in 7 colors and is UV-resistant and impact-modified to stand up to regular use without cracking or fading. At 32.5" overall, it gives you the reach without overextending your arms or hurting your back. The stainless-steel rod, washers, wing nuts, and fasteners won't corrode, and the Surf Fishing Solutions specific urethane seal maintains extreme suction in the water. The structural aluminum side handle gives you something solid to grip when you're working wet sand without snapping off like many cheap brands.
At roughly half the weight of a comparable stainless pump, you'll notice the difference at the end of a long beach day.
Best for: Anyone targeting surf species knows that ghost shrimp is the golden ticket to a full cooler — pompano, whiting, sheepshead, redfish, and more. Works equally well for experienced bait fishermen and complete beginners who just want to catch their own bait.
Each pump is hand-built to order by Bryan. Allow approximately 1 - 2 weeks from order to shipment.
