Berkley Powerbait Nessie

BERKLEY NESSIE

Available in three different sizes starting from 5-inch and ranging up to 9-inches, the PowerBait Nessie presents a big profile with the ability to be retrieved at various speeds and cadences due to the stabilizing fins that keep the bait running consistent at all times.

  • Soft-bodied glide bait design featuring Berkley’s famous PowerBait flavor
  • Mesh reinforced joint provides durability while allowing for free range of motion

Rapala Crush City Bronco Bug

RAPALA CRUSH CITY BRONCO BUG

What sets the Bronco Bug apart from the competition is a perfect level of body thickness, which allows an angler to Texas rig a hook to keep it snagless, while allowing for easy penetration of the hook. It features a dolphin-like swimming action and a “Bronco Buck” kick when jigged. The body of the bait has raised ribs on each side to hide the hook point, meaning that when one side of the bait starts to show wear, the hook can be flipped without compromising any action, thereby increasing durability and efficiency. The appendages face forward, which means they’ll create a disturbance larger than that of the overall package and remain quivering with the slightest bit of current or angler manipulation. 15 colors. MSRP $6.99 a pack

  • rapala crush city freeloader

RAPALA CRUSH CITY FREELOADER

Collaborating with Jacob Wheeler, the product engineers at Rapala sought to create the ultimate chatterbait/spinnerbait trailer bait. It can be used as a vibrating jig trailer, alone as a swimbait, or for countless other traditional and novel soft plastic presentations. The body features miniature ribs for added action, water movement and a realistic texture, but the unsung hero of this product is the tail, which tapers to a point, albeit one with a ball at the end. That creates a kicking action which is subtly realistic. It’s the reason why it has quickly become Wheeler’s spinnerbait trailer of choice, too, adding a bit of bulk, color contrast, and a touch of ultra-realism. 4 1/4 inches long. 6-pack for $5.99. 17 custom colors

Available in 16 custom colors with 10 baits a pack and MSRP $5.99.

rapala crush city cleanup craw

RAPALA CRUSH CITY CLEANUP CRAW

It is 3 1/2 inches long and is available in 17 custom colors tweaked specifically to Wheeler’s preferences. It comes in 7 craws to the pack and has a suggested retail price of US $6.99.

Rapala crush city the mayor

RAPALA CRUSH CITY THE MAYOR

The Mayor’s tail does not kick super hard, but instead steadily and naturally swings from side-to-side. With a subtle body roll, this swimbait performs thanks to a salt- and scent-infused body. But the density of the plastic gives this swimbait the perfect kick Wheeler wanted to be an ultra-realistic imitation of a shad. Available in 3- and 4-inch sizes, 16 custom colors, 8 in a pack (3 inch) and 6 in a pack (4 inch), MSRP starting at $6.49.

Shimano ARMAJOINT 190SS Flash Boost

Shimano designed the ARMAJOINT 190SS FB to solve the challenges of casting a big jointed swimbait and the proprietary ARMABOOST technology significantly increases casting distance and accuracy by reducing unnecessary air resistance and the chances of the lure spinning during flight. As the angler casts the lure, ARMABOOST technology facilitates the lure to disconnect from an internal magnet and forces the body to fold into its compact shape. Once the lure hits the water, the lure’s body reengages with the magnet to create a smooth and natural swimming action. Swim in an S-pattern, but the bait will not flare out when stopped due to the fold in its body. ARMAJOINT also features Shimano’s proprietary FLASH BOOST technology that constantly emits a fish-attracting flash during the retrieve — even on the pause.

shimano swagy strong

Shimano Swagy Spinnerbaits

Shimano’s Swagy spinnerbait incorporates an innovative tapered-wire design to add durability without sacrificing the lure’s vibration. The lower arm’s thicker (0.95mm) wire improves hookup ratios and adds durability. Swagy’s upper arm tapers to a thinner (0.6mm) wire, boosting the lure’s specially-designed blades to transmit more vibration through the lure body and causing the skirt to have more action as the lure moves through the water. Swagy’s head design incorporates both tin and tungsten while precisely placing the high specific-gravity tungsten on the bottom portion of the head to stabilize the swimming action during fast reel retrieves. Swagy offers two distinct blade configurations. The shape of the blade’s front cup creates a faster rise for extreme vibration.

yamamoto 3 inch yamacraw

Yamamoto 3-Inch Yama Craw

JENKO GILL BOB

Unique shape will lend itself to both crappie and finesse bass fishermen alike. The tall body profile when rigged as shown in the picture gives an incredibly subtle swimming motion, while rigging with the bait out the side gives a slow “death spiral” on the fall that works great during shad kills. Should be an outstanding crossover bait for the BFS guys. 10 per bag, MSRP price $3.99.

Jenko Tin Cannon

JENKO TIN CANON

This new topwater packs a lot into its 1 ounce, 128mm long frame including a VMC No. 1 hook in the front and a feathered No. 2 in the back, glass head beads and a large single knocker in the tail. What sets this bait apart is that the knocker rather than being a lead ball between two plastic walls, is a tungsten ball between two steel plates. It’s LOUD with a really unique high-pitched sound to call bass from a distance. Walks through rough water and waves great, and you can work it slow or fast with perfect cadence. MSR $15.99.

own. It’s extremely versatile – allowing you to drop shot it, Damiki rig it, hop it, swim it, or fish it like a
Ned. The matte shine-free ribbed body provides a unique vibration in the water and the thin tail gives
incredible lifelike action. It’s truly neutrally buoyant meaning when dead-sticked the bait will sit
perfectly horizontal giving it a natural appearance. The smallest amount of movement in the bait will
have the tail twitching like crazy.

single purpose – to catch fish. It has the perfect amount of flotation to make the claws lift at a 45-degree
angle and a matte shine-free finish, making it the ultimate super finesse craw bait. Originally intended as
a chunk on a finesse jig, we found this bait to be extremely effective on a Stealth Ball Jig Head hopped or
dragged along the bottom.

Daiwa Evergreen bow Worm Noodle

EVER GREEN  BOW WORM NOODLE

Although a full 8-inches long, the EVER GREEN Bow Worm Noodle is intended for fishing weightless, wacky, Neko, or via dropshot. For example, when rigged wacky-style or on a dropshot hook, the Bow Worm Noodle undulates and coils with the slightest movement of the rod, the ultra-thin diameter soft plastic pulsing and writhing like a real nightcrawler. Add any amount of current and it’s even more lifelike. Besides its slinking movement, the Bow Worm Noodle features an EVER GREEN-formulated “Special Formula” scent comprised of real shrimp, squid, and baitfish impregnated into the salt-heavy plastic, thus encouraging more bites and bass to hang onto the artificial offering longer.
