Engineered for precision and realism, the Jackall Driftfry is a 3, 4, and 5-inch soft jerkbait meticulously designed to imitate small baitfish in finesse applications. Developed in Japan with input from professional anglers, the Driftfry combines lifelike aesthetics with refined performance to give you the upper hand when fish are hesitant or highly pressured.
Key Features:
-
Realistic Profile and Action:
The Driftfry’s slim baitfish profile, detailed scale pattern, and 3D eyes mimic the look and movement of natural forage. Its subtle side-to-side darting motion, especially on hover or free rig setups, perfectly replicates a dying or distressed baitfish. -
Soft, Buoyant Body Material:
Made from ultra-soft plastic, the Driftfry 3.0 offers excellent pliability, enhancing both action and hook-up ratio. Its slow sink rate allows for a more natural fall, which is critical when targeting suspended fish. -
Belly Slit for Versatile Rigging:
The slit on the underside makes it easy to rig with a hover-strolling jig head, dropshot, small ball-head jig, or even weightless with an offset hook for a stealthy approach. -

SPRO John Crews Little John 50 Crankbait is built to cover shallow 3–5 ft water with a tight wobble and a compact profile. Its computer chip board lip helps the bait deflect off cover, while a silent tungsten weight-transfer system is designed for long, accurate casts. Make a cast along a shallow edge, feel the bill meet cover, and keep the lure moving.
Cover Shallow Water Without Losing Feel
John Crews designed the Little John for anglers who need to search water quickly without giving up casting accuracy or contact with structure. The durable, sensitive lip and tight wobble make it a practical choice around shallow cover. Gamakatsu treble hooks round out the setup. For a deeper running option in the same family, compare the SPRO Little John MD 50 Crankbait, listed for 7–9 ft.
The Right Pick If...
You want a compact, silent crankbait for fishing roughly 3–5 ft water and making repeated casts around shallow cover. Its tight wobble is the advantage when you want a restrained action; choose another lure or depth range if you need a broader action or deeper presentation.
Best For
- Freshwater bass fishing with shallow-running crankbaits.
- Searching 3–5 ft water and tracing cover edges.
- Making long casts and working the bill into suitable structure.
Key Features
- Computer chip board lip for sensitivity, durability and cover deflection.
- Silent tungsten weight-transfer system for casting distance and accuracy.
- Tight-wobbling action in a small-profile crankbait.
- Gamakatsu treble hooks.
- Twelve listed color variants.
- Subtle floating bait
Models & Specs
| Model | Listed depth | Lip | Hooks |
|---|---|---|---|
| Little John 50 (all listed colors) | 3–5 ft | Computer chip board | Gamakatsu treble hooks |
How to Fish It
Cast along a shallow bank or past cover in the lure's listed depth range, then retrieve steadily to get the lip working. Let it contact suitable cover and adjust your speed to maintain the tight wobble. Match the line and rod to your conditions; SPRO Gouken Fluorocarbon 164-yard spool is one line option to consider.
Tackle Express Tips
- Use the 3–5 ft range to choose water where the bill can work near the cover you are targeting.
- Pause briefly after the lure deflects, then resume your retrieve.
- Check the bill, hooks and line after repeated contact with structure.

The Flagship of Ultralight. Nothing Comes Close.
Most ultralight rods ask you to choose: sensitivity or power. Soft tip that reads every nibble, or backbone that lands fish. The Phenix Iron Feather Ultralight Spinning Rod makes that a false choice. Built on Phenix's exclusive Net Titan Carbon Fiber / Graphite composite blank with an extremely fast action taper, the Iron Feather transitions from a whisper-soft, ultra-sensitive tip to a powerful, load-bearing backbone in a way that no other ultralight rod on the market replicates. It's Phenix's most refined spinning rod — and the choice of anglers who refuse to compromise on ultralight performance.
What Other Ultralight Rods Get Wrong
Budget and mid-grade ultralight rods typically fail in one of two places: the tip is too stiff to feel 1/16oz presentations, or the blank collapses under a decent-sized fish. The Iron Feather's Net Titan blank eliminates both failures. The proprietary carbon fiber and graphite composition is engineered specifically for the ultralight application — it achieves a tip that loads on a 1/16oz jig head and telegraphs the softest bite, while the lower blank section stiffens progressively under load so a 3lb trout or a surface-feeding panfish can't fold the rod. Fuji Titanium SiC guides complete the picture: titanium frames are lighter and more corrosion-resistant than stainless, and SiC rings handle light braid and fluorocarbon without heat or wear.
Craftsmanship That Matches the Performance
The Iron Feather isn't just a performance rod — it's a precision instrument. The custom Fuji IPSD reel seat with high-density EVA handles and one-of-a-kind burl wood accents puts it in a category above standard production ultralight rods. The 2-piece models (IF722-2, IF792-2, IF862-2) feature a burl wood handle section with EVA split grip, giving you a tactile and aesthetic experience that matches the blank's capability. Five models span 7'1" to 8'6", covering everything from tight creek fishing to open-water trout lake presentations.
Why It Beats the Competition
- Net Titan Carbon Fiber / Graphite composite — Phenix's exclusive formulation; not a rebranded OEM blank
- Fuji Titanium SiC guides — lighter than stainless frames, fully corrosion-resistant, SiC rings for braid and light line compatibility
- Extremely fast action taper — soft tip that loads at 1/16oz; powerful backbone that handles fish well above its rated line class
- Custom Fuji IPSD reel seat — precision-fit seat with burl wood accents; found on custom rods costing far more
- Five-model lineup — 1-piece and 2-piece options; 7'1" through 8'6" to match different fishing environments
The Right Pick If...
- You fish light line (2-9lb) with 1/16–3/8oz presentations and want the most sensitivity available
- You demand a rod that performs at the level of a custom build without the custom build timeline and cost
- You target trout, panfish, smallmouth, or kokanee and want a rod that makes every fish feel exceptional
- You want a 2-piece travel option (IF722-2, IF792-2, IF862-2) that doesn't sacrifice blank integrity
- You appreciate hardware and aesthetics — burl wood accents, Fuji titanium, and a rod that looks as good as it fishes
Best Fishing Techniques
- Ultralight jig fishing — 1/16–1/8oz jig heads with small plastics; the tip loads cleanly at these weights and the SiC guides handle light braid without wear
- Inline spinner and spoon fishing — the fast-taper blank provides excellent lure control and feedback on small inline spinners and trout spoons
- Drop shot and finesse presentations — the soft tip is ideal for finesse drop shot at very light weights; feels every subtle pickup
- Light Carolina and split shot rigs — the long 8'6" model (IF862-2) is especially suited for sweeping presentations on open flats and lakes
- Small topwater lures — the tip sensitivity lets you feel subtle strikes on small poppers and walking baits
Best Conditions
- Clear water where fish are leader-shy and light line (2-6lb fluorocarbon) is mandatory
- Creeks, streams, and small rivers — the 7'1" and 7'7" 1-piece models are ideal in tight quarters
- Open trout lakes and reservoirs — longer 2-piece models (IF792-2, IF862-2) add casting reach and line control at distance
- Any situation where the quality of the presentation matters as much as the strength of the hookset
Best For
- Target Species: Trout (all species), Panfish, Smallmouth Bass, Kokanee, Crappie, Perch
- Techniques: Ultralight Jigs, Spinners, Spoons, Drop Shot, Finesse, Light Carolina
- Angler Level: Intermediate to Advanced — rewards anglers with refined technique and light-line experience; an heirloom-quality rod for serious ultralight enthusiasts

Tackle Express Tips
- Use 4-6lb fluorocarbon as your main line, not braid: The Iron Feather's tip sensitivity is most fully realized with fluorocarbon straight through on a light reel. Braid works, but the lower stretch and diameter means you'll feel more line noise on the retrieve. In clear water, fluorocarbon also gives you the invisibility advantage that ultralight trout fishing demands.
- Let the tip load before setting the hook: With an extremely fast action and 1/16oz presentations, the rod loads almost immediately. Resist the urge to snap-set — a smooth lift of the rod tip is enough to drive a small hook home on trout and panfish. Hard hooksets on light line break off more fish than they land.
- The 8'6" IF862-2 is the open-water specialist: If you're fishing a lake from shore or a kayak where casting distance and line management matter, the IF862-2 gives you reach that the shorter models can't match. The 2-piece construction also makes it the most travel-friendly option in the lineup.
FAQ
What's the difference between the 1-piece and 2-piece models?
The 1-piece models (IF711-1, IF771-1) use an EVA split grip handle and are rated for 1-7lb line. The 2-piece models (IF722-2, IF792-2, IF862-2) feature the burl wood + EVA split grip handle and are rated for 1-9lb line. The 2-piece models also offer travel convenience without meaningful blank performance loss at the ferrule — Phenix engineers the taper around the joint rather than treating it as an afterthought.
Can I use light braid on the Iron Feather?
Yes. Fuji Titanium SiC guides are fully compatible with braid, including 4-8lb braid tied to a fluorocarbon leader. The SiC rings won't groove under braid like lesser guide materials. That said, many ultralight anglers prefer fluorocarbon straight through on this rod for the added sensitivity and invisibility in clear water.
Is this rod appropriate for small stream trout fishing?
The IF711-1 (7'1", 1-piece) is the best choice for tight quarters like small streams and creek fishing. The shorter blank is more manageable around overhanging cover, and the 1-7lb line rating matches typical small-stream trout tackle perfectly. The longer models are better suited for open water where casting distance matters.

The Rapala PXR Mavrik 110 Jerkbait pairs a hard-cutting, semi-erratic action with a head-down suspending posture, giving bass a baitfish imitation that darts on the twitch and hangs in front of them on the pause. Part of Rapala's Precision Xtreme Series, it combines a Long-Cast System with VMC RedLine Series treble hooks for anglers who want to cover water without giving up a controlled stop-and-go presentation.
Cast along a point, work the bait down, then change the rhythm until the fish respond. Short twitches produce a side-to-side walk; sharper snaps create wider directional changes. That versatility lets you adjust the presentation rather than immediately switching lures.
Keep the Bait in the Strike Zone
A steady-moving lure can leave hesitant bass behind. The Mavrik's suspending design lets you interrupt the retrieve and give following fish time to commit. Its head-down posture adds an injured-baitfish look during those stops. Suspension and running depth depend on water temperature, line and added hardware, so check its behavior beside the boat before settling into a cadence.
The Right Pick for Twitch-and-Pause Fishing
Choose the Mavrik 110 when bass are feeding on minnows or shad and you want a jerkbait for the upper portion of the water column. Start around points, rocky banks, transitions and the outside edges of cover. Clear to moderately stained water is a useful starting point for a visual baitfish presentation; a little wind can help break up the surface.
Best for: largemouth and smallmouth bass, casting along baitfish-holding structure, twitch-pause retrieves and cold-water presentations with longer pauses. In warmer water, experiment with a quicker rhythm. Its adjustable action is the advantage; it is not a substitute for a deeper-running bait when fish are holding well below its running range, and exposed trebles are better worked around cover than through dense vegetation.
Details That Make Each Twitch Count
- Long-Cast System designed to support casting distance and accuracy.
- Suspending, head-down posture for stop-and-go baitfish presentations.
- Hard-cutting, semi-erratic action that responds to different twitch intensities.
- Durable plastic body with external scale detailing.
- VMC RedLine Series treble hooks.
- Multiple color choices without changing the core 110-size presentation.
Mavrik 110 at a Glance
| Model | Body Length | Lure Weight | Running Depth | Buoyancy | Hooks |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| PXR Mavrik 110 / PXRM110 | 4 3/8 in. | 1/2 oz. | 5–6 ft. | Suspending | VMC RedLine Series trebles |
Shared specifications apply across the color options. Actual running depth varies with line diameter, cast length and retrieve.
Build a Retrieve the Fish Will Follow
After the cast, reel the lure down and begin with two short twitches followed by a pause. Leave a little slack after each twitch so the bait can change direction rather than being pulled continuously forward. Lengthen the pause when fish follow without striking; shorten it and sharpen the twitches when they are actively chasing bait.
Use a rod rated for a 1/2-ounce treble-hook lure with enough tip give to work the bait and cushion the fight. Seaguar Invizx Fluorocarbon Line is a complementary line option; choose a line strength appropriate to your cover and check how it affects suspension before fishing.
Choose Color for the Water in Front of You
Start with a subtle ghost-style pattern in clear water, a shad pattern around shad schools, or a perch pattern where perch are part of the forage. Use visibility and local baitfish as your guide, then adjust if fish follow but do not commit. Color is a starting point, not a guarantee.
Tackle Express Tips
- Check the pause beside the boat with your actual line and knot. Changing terminal hardware can change the lure's balance.
- Change pause length before changing colors. A following bass may need more time, not a different finish.
- Keep gentle, steady pressure after the bite rather than making an oversized hookset, and check trebles after contact with rocks or cover.
Questions Before Your First Cast
Does the Mavrik 110 float or suspend?
It is a suspending jerkbait designed to pause head-down. Water temperature, line and additional hardware can affect how it sits in the water.
How deep does it run?
Its listed running range is 5–6 feet. Line diameter, cast length and retrieve can change the depth you achieve.
Should I fish it fast or slow?
Start with short twitches and a pause. Use longer pauses for reluctant fish and a quicker, sharper rhythm when bass are chasing baitfish.
Are the different colors different sizes?
The color variants on this listing share the Mavrik 110 specifications above. Pick the finish that fits your water clarity and local forage.
Round Out Your Jerkbait Options
For a separate saltwater-oriented slashbait option, compare the Rapala X-Rap Slashbait SXR-14. Choose the Mavrik 110 here for its freshwater bass-focused twitch-and-pause presentation, and select your preferred color for the next trip.

The Reins TG Tungsten Slip Sinker — Super Heavy Weight is the 1.5–2.5 oz range of Reins’ tungsten slip sinker lineup — built for punching heavy matted vegetation, deep water Texas rigs, and any application where maximum weight in a minimum profile is required. Made from 95% tungsten / 5% nickel alloy with a specific gravity of 18.2, each sinker is 40% smaller than its lead counterpart at the same weight and 1.8× as dense. The inner core system protects your line from abrasion inside the sinker bore. Available in Black and Green Pumpkin for color-matching to your worm or trailer. 1 per pack.
Key Features
- 95% Tungsten / 5% Nickel Alloy — Specific Gravity 18.2 — The 95% tungsten composition delivers a specific gravity of 18.2 — 1.8× denser than lead; the higher density means the sinker is 40% smaller than a lead sinker at the same weight, producing a more compact profile that punches through matted vegetation more easily and presents a smaller, less intrusive weight on the Texas rig; the nickel alloy binder makes the sinker environmentally safe compared to pure lead.
- 40% Smaller Profile — Better Punch-Through & Sensitivity — The compact tungsten profile punches through matted vegetation more efficiently than a lead sinker of the same weight; the smaller nose cuts through the mat cleanly and the higher density carries the bait through faster; the higher density also transmits bottom contact and subtle bites more clearly through the line, making it easier to detect bites in heavy cover where feel is critical.
- Inner Core Line Guard — Protects Line from Abrasion — The inner bore of the sinker features an inner core system that protects the line from being abraded by the tungsten as the sinker slides; tungsten is harder than lead and can cut line without a line guard; the inner core prevents line wear that could cause break-offs on big fish.
- Unique Shape — Reduced Hang-Ups — The sinker’s unique shape is designed to reduce hang-ups on bottom structure; the profile deflects off rocks, wood, and debris more efficiently than a standard bullet weight, keeping the bait moving through cover.
- Color-Matched — Black & Green Pumpkin — Available in Black and Green Pumpkin to match the color of your worm or trailer; color-matching the sinker to the bait creates a more natural, cohesive presentation that reduces the visual contrast between the sinker and the bait.
- 1 Per Pack — Super Heavy Weight Range — One sinker per pack in the super heavy weight range (1.5, 2.0, and 2.5 oz).
Weight Selection Guide
| Weight | Best Application |
|---|---|
| 1.5 oz | Punching light to moderate mats, deep Texas rig (20–30 ft), heavy current |
| 2.0 oz | Punching moderate to heavy mats, deep Texas rig (30–40 ft), strong current |
| 2.5 oz | Punching the heaviest mats, extreme depth (40+ ft), maximum current penetration |
Best For
- Punching Heavy Matted Vegetation — The primary application for super heavy slip sinkers; the compact tungsten profile punches through thick matted hydrilla, milfoil, and lily pad mats more efficiently than lead; use 2.0–2.5 oz for the heaviest mats where a lighter sinker won’t penetrate; pair with a heavy flipping hook and a compact creature bait or chunk trailer.
- Deep Water Texas Rig — Use the 1.5–2.0 oz for deep water Texas rig applications (20–40 ft) where getting the bait to the bottom quickly is critical; the compact tungsten profile sinks faster than lead at the same weight and the higher sensitivity helps detect bites at depth on heavy fluorocarbon.
- Heavy Current — The super heavy weight range is effective in strong current situations (river fishing, tidal fisheries) where lighter sinkers are swept off the bottom; the compact profile also creates less drag in current than a larger lead sinker of the same weight.
