Description

Floating stick baits are effective for targeting various species because their unique action mimics injured prey. The pause allows the bait to rise, creating an enticing visual, while a gentle sweep causes it to dive, making it look vulnerable. This rhythmic motion can trigger strikes from predatory fish, as it simulates a struggling baitfish. Experimenting with the duration and intensity of the pauses and sweeps can help find the most effective retrieve for your specific fishing conditions. Please keep in mind that because our products are handmade, their weight might be different from what’s listed. For example, a lure labeled as 40g could weigh 38.5g or 44.5g. Unlike factory-made lures, our handcrafted ones may have small weight variations.

Field Notes

Use with a pause-and-sweep retrieve so the lure rises on the pause and dives on the sweep, imitating an injured baitfish. Best around open-water pelagics when fish are feeding on the surface or just below it, especially when a more natural, erratic presentation is needed.

Pros

  • Floating action creates a vulnerable baitfish profile
  • Handmade finish with flashy reflective sides for visibility
  • Effective with varied pause-and-sweep retrieves

Cons

  • Weight can vary slightly because it is handcrafted
  • Floating stickbaits can require active rod work to get the best action
