Product description
This floating pencil bait is built for walk-the-dog fishing on largemouth and smallmouth water. The slim, weighted body sits flat on the surface and darts side to side with sharp rod twitches, throwing a subtle wake that mimics a fleeing baitfish. The through-wire construction and dual treble hooks hold up to solid strikes without pulling out of shape.
It shines during low-light hours, over grass flats, and around points where bass are keyed on shad or herring near the surface. Slow, steady walks trigger reaction bites in calm water, while a faster cadence covers open water fast when fish are actively feeding up top.
How to fish it
- Cast past the target area and let the bait sit until rings disappear.
- Use short, sharp downward rod twitches with slack line to walk the bait side to side.
- Vary your cadence, pausing briefly over cover or drop-offs where bass may be holding.
- Set the hook with a firm sideways sweep once you feel solid weight, not just a surface splash.
Frequently asked
The 90mm size is a solid all-around choice for largemouth and smallmouth. Downsize to 60mm for finicky fish or smaller forage, and go to 100mm when targeting bigger fish or fishing open water.
Yes. Use natural shad or silver patterns in clear water, and switch to bolder or darker tones in stained or low-light conditions to help bass locate the bait.
A medium to medium-heavy rod with a fast tip pairs well, matched with 12 to 20 lb monofilament or braid to fluorocarbon leader for better walk-the-dog action and hookups.
Early morning, evening, and overcast days are prime, especially over grass flats, points, or near baitfish schools when bass are feeding near the surface.
