Quick take
A 4.5-inch multi-jointed glide bait with realistic bluegill appearance for large bass and pike.
This 4.5-inch multi-jointed glide bait comes in a silver shiner finish and weighs 1.25 oz in its sinking version. It sits upright on the bottom, so a pause over a shallow spawning flat keeps it in the strike zone. Bass, musky, striped bass and trout anglers pick it for its bluegill-style profile and its own set of hooks, including a feathered one for a moving fin look.
Best for
- Casting over shallow spawning areas for trophy bass
- Trolling in lakes where pike and musky hunt
- Targeting suspended gamefish during low-light periods
Skip if
- You fish tight cover where a 4.5-inch bait gets snagged
- You want a fast-moving topwater lure
Strengths
- Multi-jointed design glides smoothly at slow speeds
- Photo-realistic finish mimics natural forage
- Available in sinking and floating for different depths
Trade-offs
- Large size and weight limit casting distance
