Description

A very cool and unique “little” lure, the Pocket Rocket might be the most under-rated of the 247 Lures lineup. Weighing in at just 1.25oz, but nearly 10″ in total length, the Pocket Rocket packs a mean punch for a little guy! Initially the Pocket Rocket has the look of a small Needlefish plug, but with the help of a soft plastic tail, it’s got a swagger like none other! Cast it out, let it sink to the desired depth, and retrieve slowly. The tail will do most of the work for you, but give it a bump every so often for just a little bit of extra motion. The Pocket Rocket is the first 247 Lure I reach for when we come up on blitzing fish! The Pocket Rocket comes rigged with a 5-inch soft plastic Tail, but make sure you pick up some extra tails as well! (Exact weight and colors of lures will vary batch to batch and lure to lure. All of our lures are made in small batches, many of our colors are custom blends we mix ourselves, and even our internal lead weights are cut by hand. We do our best to keep lure shape, weight, and paint as consistent as possible, but 247 Lures is very far from mass-production where every lure is exactly the same.)

Field Notes

Cast it out and let it sink to the desired depth, then retrieve slowly. The soft plastic tail provides most of the action, with occasional bumps adding extra motion. It’s a good choice when fish are blitzing on baitfish and you want a subtle needlefish-style presentation.

Pros

  • Unique needlefish-style profile with added tail action
  • Good for blitzing fish and slow retrieves
  • Compact weight-to-length ratio helps casting

Cons

  • Tail is a consumable and may need replacements
  • Best when fish are feeding on baitfish rather than highly pressured finesse situations
