Kingdom Sinking Pencil Stickbait - Long Cast Bass Jerkbait
Kingdom Sinking Pencil Stickbait - Long Cast Bass Jerkbait
This Kingdom sinking pencil is a slim, weighted stickbait built for distance casting and a slow, tantalizing fall. The 140mm body carries enough mass to bomb into open water, then settles with a subtle side-to-side roll that mimics a dying or fleeing baitfish. Twin treble hooks stay secure through hard strikes and long fights.
It shines when bass are keyed on shad or herring in open water, from schooling fish busting the surface to suspended largemouth and smallmouth holding over deep structure. Fish it with sharp twitch-pause retrieves or a steady walk-the-dog cadence just under the surface to draw reaction strikes from fish that won't commit to a topwater bait.

How to fish it
- Cast well past the target zone to take advantage of the bait's weight and distance.
- Let it sink for a few seconds to reach the strike zone before starting your retrieve.
- Work it with sharp rod twitches and pauses to trigger a side-to-side roll, or slow-walk it just under the surface.
- Vary pause length and speed until you find the cadence bass are reacting to that day.
Frequently asked
At 140mm and 54g it runs on the larger side, so it works best for bigger largemouth and smallmouth or for covering open water where long casts and a bigger profile pay off.
Use natural, translucent patterns in clear water and switch to higher-contrast or brighter finishes when the water gets stained so bass can find it more easily.
A medium-heavy casting rod with 12 to 17 lb fluorocarbon or 30 to 50 lb braid handles the weight well and gives you the control needed for twitch-pause retrieves.
It performs well whenever bass are chasing baitfish in open water, including schooling activity in warmer months and suspended fish over deep structure in spring and fall.
