Hunthouse Sinking Pencil Stickbait 100mm
Hunthouse Sinking Pencil Stickbait 100mm
This 100mm sinking pencil is built for anglers who want a long-casting stickbait that gets down in the water column fast. The slim, weighted body sinks on a controlled fall and holds a tight, subtle wobble on the retrieve, mimicking a dying or fleeing baitfish. The holographic finish throws flash from every angle, which helps draw strikes from bass keying on shad and other baitfish forage.
Work it with a twitch-pause retrieve or a subsurface walk-the-dog action over points, flats, and open water where bass are actively feeding. It casts well into wind thanks to its weight and shape, making it a solid choice for covering water on lakes and rivers when largemouth and smallmouth are chasing baitfish near the surface or just below it.

How to fish it
- Cast well past the target area to take advantage of the bait's long casting design.
- Let the lure sink to your desired depth before starting the retrieve.
- Use a steady twitch-pause cadence or short rod snaps to create a walking, gliding action.
- Work the bait along points, flats, and drop-offs where baitfish and bass are likely holding.
Frequently asked
The 100mm size matches typical shad and baitfish forage, making it effective for both largemouth and smallmouth bass in most freshwater fisheries.
Bright, flashy patterns like this pink and silver holographic finish work well in stained or slightly murky water where fish rely more on flash and vibration to locate prey.
A medium to medium-heavy spinning or casting rod with 10 to 17 lb fluorocarbon or monofilament line gives good casting distance and control over the bait's action.
Sinking pencils shine during spring and fall when bass are chasing baitfish near the surface, and they also work well in cooler water when a slower, subsurface presentation gets more bites.
