Quick take
A 10 in slow-sinking glide bait with a trout or shad profile and side-to-side glide action.
The 10-inch RF Glider is a glide bait in a gizzard shad color, weighing 6.75 ounces, for anglers after bass, pike, musky and striped bass. Its size and weight suit big presentations over shallow flats and along steep drop-offs. Its side-to-side glide on a slow retrieve gives larger fish a substantial profile to target.
Best for
- Shallow spawning areas over rocky structure
- Trophy bass and pike in lakes with shallow drop-offs
- Gliding across shallow flats and beds
Skip if
- You need a faster-sinking bait for deep water
- You fish heavy vegetation where a large lure will snag
Strengths
- Large 10 in profile attracts trophy fish
- Glide action triggers strikes with minimal input
- Slow-sinking design keeps the bait in the strike zone longer
Trade-offs

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.
