Product description
This slender sandeel-profile jerkbait is built for distance. The thin body and weighted tail section load the rod for long casts, letting you cover water fast when bass are keying on baitfish schools. The floating design sits high at rest and darts with a tight, erratic wobble on the twitch, then glides back up between pulls.
It works well for largemouth and smallmouth feeding on shad, alewife, or other slim baitfish near the surface. Fish it over grass flats, along current seams, or around schooling bass in open water. Available in three sizes, so you can match the hatch from finesse presentations to bigger profiles for aggressive fish.
How to fish it
- Cast past the target area and let the lure settle before starting your retrieve.
- Use sharp twitches of the rod tip with slack pauses to trigger the darting action.
- Slow the cadence in cooler water or when bass are following without committing.
- Work it over grass edges, points, and current breaks where baitfish congregate.
Frequently asked
The 143mm/14g is a versatile starting size for most bass water. Step up to the 173mm or 208mm when targeting larger fish or fishing open water where longer casts and a bigger profile help.
Natural, translucent patterns like the sandeel finish shown work best in clear water. In stained water, choose a version with more contrast or a darker back to help bass locate it.
A medium action spinning or casting rod with 10-15 lb monofilament or fluorocarbon gives good casting distance and enough give for treble hooks without pulling free on strikes.
It shines during spring and fall when bass are actively chasing baitfish near the surface, and works through summer early mornings or evenings on largemouth and smallmouth alike.
