Because of the success of the 13 in Dead twitch. There have been a ton of requests for a smaller version that can be thrown on standard heavy swimbait gear. The bait has been scaled down to a much more manageable 10 inches. The realism of this bait is absolutely ridiculous. This is some of Matt’s finest work and you won’t find a more realistic trout bait anywhere. The Dead twitch is a floating single jointed, two piece, soft bodied bait with a hard interior core. The bait is more than just a dead stick bait. It can be worked to. It will easily do a 180 with a medium twitch. It will slow walk with lighter twitches , and you can even make it tail slap or dive with harder twitches. As A dead stick bait, the top of the baits sits slightly above the water with the top fin sticking out of the water for visibility. Just let it bob in the ripples of the water and the bait comes to life. The fins and tail section all have their own movement witch add to the realism of this bait. It looks like a freshly stocked injured trout. Big bass and Stripers can’t resist this easy big meal. The 10 inch Dead Twitch weighs about 7 ounces and comes with premium Owner treble hooks. he 10 inch Dead Twitch weighs about 7 ounces and comes with premium Owner treble hooks.
