Quick take
PBFish Glide Bait with WeightShift technology, slow-sinking with wounded baitfish action for bass and pike.
This 6-inch glide bait weighs 2.5 ounces and sinks slowly, giving a wide, gliding swim on a steady or paused retrieve. It comes in a shad finish and is aimed at bass, striped bass, pike and musky. It is a big lure, so it fits anglers with heavy gear who work open water for large fish.
Best for
- Bass and pike in open water and structure
- Slow-rolling and pause-and-go retrieves
- Imitating wounded or dying baitfish
Skip if
- You need fast-sinking lures; this sinks slowly
- You fish shallow; glide baits work best deeper
Strengths
- WeightShift technology maintains stable posture on sink
- Internal weight tuning improves casting distance
- Slow-sinking stays in strike zone longer
- Custom tuned for smooth gliding action
Trade-offs
- Slow sink rate requires deeper water
- 6 inch size is large; needs stout rod
- 2.5 ounce weight tires arm on all-day casting
