Description

Second from the bottom. Jointed fishing lures are the PED version of our straight model baits, they are considered effective because of their hinged action while in use. While our straight model lures offer consistent tight wiggle and wide wander while trolling, jointed models excel at mimicking the serpentine movement of injured or fleeing bait fish, which can trigger aggressive strikes from muskies. Add some to your arsenal and find out.

Field Notes

This is a jointed pike/musky bait designed to imitate an injured or fleeing baitfish with a hinged, serpentine action. It is a good choice when fish want a more erratic presentation than a straight bait, especially when trolling or casting along weed edges and open-water structure.

Pros

  • Jointed body creates a more lifelike, erratic swimming action
  • Large 12-inch profile targets trophy pike and musky
  • Versatile for trolling or casting

Cons

  • Large size requires heavy tackle
  • Can be too much bait for smaller fish or pressured conditions
