Baitsanity

The Baitsanity Explorer Glide Gen 2 features a hard plastic body with an ultra-soft, replaceable tail section. It also has soft rubber fins on its sides and has a life-like gliding action that is sure to get bit. This glide bait has an incredible action that draws fish.  

We've fished it and done very well at our Southern California Lakes. It swims great at slow speeds which is what usually get's strikes for us.  If you need a faster retrieve it still shines and won't roll.  

For the action, durability, and price, you can't beat this glide style bait. Comes with one replacement tail.  The generation 2 has an improved tail that won't fall out and is more durable.

Length 9.5"

Weight 5oz

The Baitsanity Antidote 7 Glide Baits appeared on the swimbait scene just a few years ago with their Explorer Series swimbaits, starting with their Trout and Carp Explorers. These custom baits quickly found a home in the hands of big bait anglers looking for a full sized glide bait option that wasn’t as expensive as JDM imports like the Deps Slide Swimmer or Roman Made Negotiator. 

That swimbait is the Baitsanity Antidote, a Glide Bait that is crafted with an ABS Resin body for increased durability. The Antidote Glide Swimbait has a highly detailed air brushed paint job along with a single joint construction, with allows the Antidote Glide to swim Side-To-Side with a seductive “S” action that trophy sized bass can’t resist.

We've fished this bait several times and we're very impressed with the versatility.  On a slow wind, the bait will stay just under the water's surface creating a wake behind the bait.  We've found that this in often times what creates a strike.  A slow steady retrieve without popping the rod has been the most productive.   

The summer before the weeds grow too thick, the bait should be incredible.  Due to it's ability to stay in the first 6 inches of the water column, fishing this over grass or stickups makes this bait very unique.

A must-have for all big bait enthusiasts, the Baitsanity Explorer Gill Glide Bait delivers an ultra-realistic bluegill profile and an unrivaled action that big bass simply can’t resist. Molded with an anatomically correct profile and details, the Baitsanity Explorer Gill Glide Bait features a single joint construction, which generates a wide side-to-side “S” swimming action that draws the curiosity of fish and triggers ferocious strikes.

It also features silicone attachments on the inside of the joints to reduce noise as it glides back and forth for a more natural presentation that will fool even the most discerning of bass. Adding to its realism, the 3D scales feature a three-level grain design, which is a progression of texturing that adds more depth to make the bait look more lifelike.

Moving down to the back end, the Baitsanity Explorer Gill Glide Bait features a patent pending tail connection system, which allows anglers to change the stock tail out with different tail styles to create different actions or simply replace old worn-out tails to keep that bait in tip top condition. Armed with a set of premium treble hooks that are ready to chase trophy-caliber bass right out of the package, the Baitsanity Explorer Gill Glide Bait offers a deadly bluegill imitation that will help you catch your next PB.

Combining to completely different actions. Super easy to install as well, it simply slides into the channel locking receiver so that anglers can quickly change between tails depending on the mood of the fish.

The Baitsanity Hatchmatch GX 2.0 Tail adds versatility to your glide bait and will help trigger more of those followers into biters. Featuring a multi-segmented design, the Baitsanity Hatchmatch GX 2.0 Tail helps the Explorer Glide Bait produce the widest glide of any of the other tail configurations so that it spends more time in the strike zone. When anglers implement a quick burst of the reel handle, the tail also generates a secondary thump action just like a live baitfish swimming in short intervals, which creates an incredibly natural presentation that is irresistible for bass and stripers.

It is equipped with Baitsanity’s patent-pending BaitConnect System as well, which locks the tail into place and makes it easy to swap out different tail styles without damaging your glide bait.

The Baitsanity Antidote TUG Glide Bait features Baitsanity’s premier Glide-Leap system that relies on a sliding weight to allow the bait to leap to the surface on an aggressive twitch and swim underwater on a steady retrieve. This system gives anglers the ability to target fish with explosive topwater action, or transition to a more traditional subsurface gliding motion which puts uniquely comprehensive control in the angler’s hands.

The Baitsanity Antidote TUG Glide Bait also comes outfitted with ground-breaking auxiliary features that take it to a whole new level. Just over the premium front treble hook anglers will find a set of carbon fiber fins. Situated near the rear hook are Baitsanity’s new removable, custom Fish Knits fins that are perfect for absorbing scent and creating micro bubbles on the retrieve. The tail of the TUG is buoyant and houses a layer of carbon fiber that is carefully crafted to help the glider maintain perfect balance and slowly float toward the surface. 

• Glide-Leap System for versatile topwater and subsurface action
  
• Fish Knits fins hold scent and can be removed for washing or replacement
  
• Carbon fiber pectoral fins guard against hook rash
  
• 3D scaling, gill rakers, mandibles, eyes, and fins
