Product description
This slow sinking pencil stickbait is built for anglers who want a subsurface bait that walks with a tight, erratic side-to-side glide. The slim minnow profile and weighted internal system let it sit just under the surface between twitches, holding in the strike zone longer than a floating bait. Available in 90mm and 130mm sizes, it covers a range of forage profiles from small baitfish to larger shad.
Bass keying in on suspended baitfish will react to the flash and subtle roll on the pause. It shines during cooler water periods and post-frontal conditions when a slower, more deliberate presentation outperforms fast-moving baits. Work it with a twitch-twitch-pause cadence around points, drop-offs, and open water where fish are chasing baitfish near the surface.
How to fish it
- Cast past the target area and let the bait settle for a second before starting your retrieve.
- Use a twitch-twitch-pause cadence, keeping the rod tip low to maximize the side-to-side walk.
- Slow the retrieve in cold water or after a front to let the bait hang longer on each pause.
- Work it over drop-offs, points, and suspended baitfish schools where bass are feeding just below the surface.
Frequently asked
The 90mm is a good all-around choice for typical bass forage. Step up to the 130mm when bass are keying on larger baitfish or you want more casting distance.
Use natural, translucent patterns in clear water and brighter or more contrasted colors like the pink/silver shown here in stained or low-light conditions.
A medium action spinning or baitcasting rod paired with 10 to 15 lb fluorocarbon or braid with a fluorocarbon leader gives good action and hook-up control.
It performs well for largemouth and smallmouth bass year-round, especially in cooler water or post-frontal conditions when a slower presentation gets more bites.
