Description

With it’s ability to fish it ultra slow with a good side to side action the MugShot is the perfect lure to present our predators for a long time in their area. What looks like another Twist-glide in the giant pile of glidebaits that the lure world already offers may surprise you. The mugshot is a downsize lure with a higher profile and a wide body which predators spot easily. Due to the position of the eyelet on the nose this bait can be fished ultra shallow (slow sinking versions) and even subsurface (floating versions) which make smaller and more shallow waters very intresting playgrounds. Of course this lure was not only made with the eye on smaller waters, anglers who fish big lakes know that a lure that can be fished very slowly over the weed beds can be summer killer!

Field Notes

Fish it ultra-slow to keep the lure working with a steady side-to-side glide for a long time. Use it over weed beds and in smaller, shallower areas where you can take advantage of the nose eyelet position to fish it very shallow (slow sinking) or subsurface.

Pros

  • Ultra-slow retrieve capability with strong side-to-side action
  • Can be fished very shallow due to nose eyelet position
  • Effective over weed beds and in smaller waters

Cons

  • Best results rely on slow, controlled retrieves
  • Glide-bait style may require practice to keep the action consistent
