Quick take
A finless glide bait designed for forward facing sonar with treble hooks and multiple action patterns.
The 1 3/4 in, 3/16 oz Perch Finisher is a sinking hard bait made for forward-facing sonar, with a weight-forward build for precise casts and quick drops into the strike zone. Its spear-point treble rig and finless body make it a compact option for working the water column at a set depth. The bait gives a choice of glide, dart and twitch action from one lure.
