Bearking Magallon-113 Jointed Swimbait, 4.45in Suspending Minnow
Bearking Magallon-113 Jointed Swimbait, 4.45in Suspending Minnow
The Magallon-113 is a jointed swimbait built to mimic the rolling glide and kick of a fleeing baitfish. Its multi-segment body flexes through the water column while the paddle tail adds extra thump on both the retrieve and the pause, giving bass a realistic target to commit to.
Running 3 to 6 feet down, this suspending bait is at home over grass flats, along rocky points, and around laydowns where largemouth and smallmouth key on baitfish. The segmented action holds up on a straight retrieve or a twitch-pause cadence, making it a versatile choice for covering water and triggering reaction strikes.

How to fish it
- Cast past visible cover and let the bait settle to its running depth before starting the retrieve.
- Use a steady medium retrieve to let the joints work and the tail kick continuously.
- Add a twitch-pause cadence over points and flats to trigger following bass into a strike.
- Slow down and let the bait hang suspended near cover when fish are following but not committing.
Frequently asked
At 4.45 inches it matches typical forage size for both largemouth and smallmouth bass and works well in most freshwater fisheries.
Black hooks blend better in stained or dark water and heavy cover, while white hooks show less contrast in clear water conditions.
A medium to medium-heavy rod with 10-15 lb fluorocarbon or 30-40 lb braid gives good castability and control for a bait this size.
It performs well in spring and fall when bass are actively chasing baitfish in the 3 to 6 foot range, and can also draw strikes in summer around deeper cover.
