Description

Target Species – Freshwater: Perch, Zander, Chub, Pike, Bass Target Species – Saltwater: Bass, Wrasse Suggested Rigging: Ned rig. The Chonk Tail is a compact, high-impact finesse lure built specifically for Ned rig fishing. Featuring a layered construction with a highly buoyant plastic core, the Chonk Tail is engineered to stand proud on the bottom, maintaining an aggressive defensive posture that predatory fish find difficult to ignore. Its thicker body profile offers a slightly more substantial presence compared to traditional Ned-style baits, while still delivering subtle, natural movement with minimal rod input. When paused on the deck, the buoyant tail lifts and holds position, imitating a feeding baitfish, goby, or defensive crustacean — a proven trigger for perch, bass, and zander. Manufactured from a soft yet durable compound, the Chonk Tail performs exceptionally well in clear water and on pressured venues where finesse presentations excel. Whether worked slowly across gravel, bounced through rock, or dead-sticked along canal margins, this lure produces confident takes in both freshwater and light saltwater environments. Disclaimer: Due to the bespoke nature of these products, there may be slight imperfections or colour variations between batches.
