Description

Built to be one of the most versatile soft baits in bass fishing with a unique hybrid design, the Poor Boys Baits Tube Darter combines the profile and shape of the Poor Boys Baits Erie Dater with the enticing action of the Poor Boys Baits Tubes. Featuring a fully ribbed body section and a spread of tantalizing tentacles, this compact creature bait is not only great for mimicking crawdads and baitfish but also accurately resembles the gobies that have invaded the Great Lakes. Hand-poured one at a time to ensure a high level of quality, the Poor Boys Baits Tube Darter is perfect for a wide range of rigging methods but excels with Ned rigs, Texas and Carolina rigging, or when used on a drop shot.
