Product description
This soft paddle tail swimbait is built to mimic a fleeing baitfish with a wide, rolling kick that anglers can feel through the rod on every retrieve. The segmented body and translucent finish give it a natural profile in the water, while the paddle tail keeps working even on a slow, steady retrieve or a subtle twitch-and-pause.
It is a solid choice for largemouth and smallmouth bass working open water, points, and drop-offs, and it holds up equally well for pike and other predator species. Rig it on a jig head or weighted swimbait hook and work it through the mid-column where baitfish typically hold, especially during periods of active feeding.
How to fish it
- Rig the swimbait on a jig head or weighted hook sized to match the bait for a level swim.
- Cast past your target area and let the bait sink to the depth you want to work.
- Retrieve with a steady, moderate speed to keep the paddle tail kicking consistently.
- Add occasional pauses or rod twitches to trigger reaction strikes from following fish.
Frequently asked
The 120mm size is a versatile starting point for largemouth and smallmouth bass in most conditions. Move up to 150mm or 180mm when targeting bigger fish or when pike are also in play.
Use natural, translucent patterns in clear water and darker, higher-contrast patterns in stained or murky water so bass can locate the bait more easily.
A medium to medium-heavy rod with 10 to 17 pound fluorocarbon or braid handles these swimbaits well, giving enough backbone to set the hook while still allowing natural action.
It works in both settings. Freshwater anglers use it for largemouth, smallmouth, and pike, while the same profile also appeals to inshore saltwater predators.
