Description

Our Pencil sets a standard for all walking baits. The reinforced, thin wall construction aids the creating more internal volume to the body cavity. The consequence is excellent durability, high buoyancy and a further acoustic range. At first glance, the Pencil looks round and linear like other walking baits but closer examination reveals the body shape is oval with flat areas giving it superior aero dynamics for its size. The intelligently designed ballast system not only gives the lure superior casting range, it provides additional services. It has a dual weight configuration. One weight is fixed and the other is positioned to move on a track. This gives the lure a superior tacking action. “Tacking” is the side to sidetracking cadence also known as “walking the dog”. The impact of the weights also creates an amplified dual tone. This high pitch can be heard from extreme distances giving the lure more calling power. The innovative Pencil 110 provides an angler with the ability to reach his target in a single cast, immediately initiate walking-action, and “call” the fish from greater distances. TECHNICAL DETAILS: CASTING PERFORMANCEThe design of the body form and positioning of the tail hook-eye, reduces the air resistance allowing a stable flight posture. This results in greater casting distance without being affected by wind or casting styles. ACTION PERFORMANCEWith its swing design, it stages a brisk and compact “dog-walking” action.SPLASH & DIVING ACTION By retrieving the line slag stronger than usual when the lure reaches the highest point during the “dog-walking”, the lure splashes the water forward while diving.

Field Notes

Use this as a walking topwater bait over shallow cover, open pockets, and calm to lightly rippled water. The compact dog-walking action and loud internal rattle make it a good search bait when bass are feeding near the surface, especially around low light periods.

Pros

  • Strong walking action for surface strikes
  • High buoyancy helps it stay on top
  • Long casting design with internal weight transfer
  • Loud acoustic presence for calling fish

Cons

  • Best used when fish are willing to rise
  • Can be less effective in heavy wind or rough water
