Description

This bait first started out as a low profile Clear Lake Hitch immitator for targeting trophy largemouth in Clear Lake,Ca. After various prototypes and numerous shad die offs I shifted my efforts to focus more on the trophy striper population chasing the annual squawfish migrations in the various river systems in northern California. This bait has proven to have a great hookup ratio in both two and three hook models and continues to catch some real giants.

Field Notes

This is a large hard swimbait built to imitate hitch and other big forage for trophy bass and striped bass. It is best fished with steady casting retrieves or slow, deliberate sweeps around river systems, points, and other open-water feeding lanes where big fish are tracking large baitfish.

Pros

  • Large profile for trophy fish
  • Realistic baitfish imitation
  • Strong hookup ratio with 2- and 3-hook models

Cons

  • Discontinued and likely hard to replace
  • Large size requires specialized gear
  • Not ideal for small-water or finesse situations
