Description

The right bait can be the difference between a big day and coming up empty, and when finesse tactics are in order, the Hula StickZ™ is the right bait! A killer Ned Rig bait for largemouth, smallmouth, and spotted bass, the Hula StickZ™ is also a multi-species juggernaut, accounting for dozens of species worldwide and working its way into the tackle bags of some of the best walleye and inshore saltwater anglers around. Try it paired with a Finesse ShroomZ™ or NedlockZ™ jighead - or Texas-rigged with a light wire EWG style hook - and watch this buoyant bait stand up off the bottom with its tentacles brought to life. Better still, its salt-impregnated ElaZtech® construction ensures it'll last. And last. And last.

Field Notes

A buoyant finesse bait designed for Ned rig presentations and light Texas-rig setups. It excels when fish are pressured, inactive, or feeding on small prey, and the tentacles add subtle movement on the pause. Use it around bottom structure, sparse cover, or current seams with a jighead or light EWG hook.

  • Works for bass, walleye, and inshore species
