Description

The Cl8 Bait Clacker Swimbaits feature a smooth, ultra realistic profile with no fins, and each bait comes equipped with three super sharp Owner treble hooks held in place with durable swivels. The swivels allow the hooks to move independently of the bait, making it harder for fish to come unbuttoned during the fight. The tail hook also helps catch those frustrating fish that eat the tail, and wouldn’t normally get hooked. The harder material used in the construction of the Clacker is also what gives it that “clacking” sound when fished at a fast pace through the water. This bait can be reeled fast, while still swimming straight, and it can also be fished slowly to get those lazy fish to strike. Available in a range of detailed, realistic color patterns, the Cl8 Bait Clacker Swimbaits will help you put bigger fish in the boat.Cl8 BaitLengthWeightClassSink RateClacker 55"1-ozSlow Sink1-ft/2-sec

Field Notes

This is a hard swimbait built for bass fishing, especially when you want a realistic baitfish profile and a steady swimming presentation. It can be retrieved fast to create a clacking sound or slow-rolled to tempt less aggressive fish. The slow sink rate makes it useful for covering water at a variety of depths just below the surface.

Pros

  • Ultra-realistic profile
  • Three treble hooks improve hookup ratio
  • Swivels let hooks move independently to reduce lost fish
  • Can be fished fast or slow

Cons

  • Hard swimbait can be more expensive and technique-specific
  • Treble hooks and hardware can snag cover
