Quick take

Zinc alloy vibrating blade baits with rattle chambers, made in the USA.

This blade bait comes two to a pack in a red and white finish, at half an ounce, for anglers chasing bass, walleye and trout. Its zinc body is built to flash and vibrate on the retrieve, which suits anglers working blade baits across different depths and techniques. Two of the same color make it easy to test a spot before switching to a second pattern.

Best for

  • Vertical jigging on structure
  • Slow trolling for walleye
  • Bass in murky water

Skip if

  • You prefer soft plastics
  • You fish shallow, clear water exclusively

Strengths

  • Vibrating action mimics distressed baitfish
  • Hook rattle attracts fish with sound
  • Zinc is environmentally safer than lead

Trade-offs

  • Blade baits twist line without a swivel
  • Less versatile than swimbaits
  • Requires steady retrieve to maintain action

About this type

A lure is an artificial bait that draws a strike with its shape, color and movement.

Each kind is built for certain depths and ways of fishing.

Weight decides how far a lure casts and what rod and line it needs; color changes how visible it is in the water.
