A 4 in jointed swimbait with built-in rattle and hand-painted finish.
Brad's KillerFish in the 4-inch Willie's Secre color suits anglers after salmon who want a plug with rattles built in. Each bait comes with VMC hooks and a Duo-Lock snap, and it can be fished bare or with a bait wrap. The body runs about 4 inches, and the series was developed with big Chinook salmon in mind.
