Description

A dynamic fusion of versatility and lifelike appeal, the Smash-Tech Gen 2 Jointed Gizzard Floating Swimbaits are designed to beguile giant gizzard-shad eating bass that are feeding near the surface. Whether crawling seductively or burning on the surface, this swimbait mirrors the movement of a larger gizzard shad with hyper-realistic swimming action. On a slower retrieve, the Gen 2 Jointed Gizzard reveals subtle action, while a faster pace unleashes tantalizing tight wobble which works great for forcing big fish to react. The uncanny realism makes it the ultimate presentation for predators on the lookout for gizzard shad, a popular type of forage among big bass habitats in the United States. Equipped with two razor-sharp treble hooks for rapid hook penetration, the Smash-Tech Gen 2 Jointed Gizzard Floating Swimbait makes a great addition to the swimbait arsenal of any angler who fishes bodies of water containing gizzard shad.
