Description

The Press Bait Heavy Duty Series possesses a 'level fall' (sinking horizontally) and a natural swimming action that appeals to all manner of fish. It also has the strength to withstand the brunt of repeated attacks by large migratory fish species such as mackerel, tuna and trevally. The body strength is due to the semi-solid, internal wire structure, which Duo managed to combine with a positive action response - indeed a difficult-to-realise combination. The 85mm is most productive for tuna feeding on small sardines. It is equipped with terminal tackle for use with heavy tackle as well.

Field Notes

Use around bait schools and active fish when you want a compact baitfish profile with a natural swimming action. The level-fall sink makes it useful for casting and letting it drop through the strike zone, especially when tuna or other fast-moving predators are feeding on small sardines.

Pros

  • Compact 85mm baitfish profile
  • Level-fall sinking action with natural swim
  • Built with heavy-duty internal wire for strong fish

Cons

  • Not a true bass-specific lure
  • May be overbuilt for light tackle situations
