Description

Used by Kyoya Fujita to dominate the Bassmaster Elite Series at Toledo Bend, the Jackall Driftfry Mellow 5.2 is a large baitfish imitation made with a super-soft material to create a unique lifelike action. Designed for fishing the mid-strolling technique to target bigger bass, the Mellow 5.2 is built with a fixed soft plastic lip that keeps a consistent depth and a tail fin that causes an extremely attractive twist-roll with added flash. This versatile lure can be used as a trailer for bladed jigs, spinnerbaits, umbrella rigs, and more, and can also be altered by cutting the tail for a pintail profile, or cutting the bill off to be fished like a soft jerkbait for quick-escaping action across the water’s surface. Available in multiple realistic color options outfitted with 3D eyes, detailed scales, and molded gill plates, the Jackall Driftfry Mellow 5.2 is an all-around fish-catching machine no matter how you decide to fish it.
