The Zoom Split Tail Trailer is a 4-inch soft plastic trailer designed to be added to a spinnerbait to modify its action, reduce short-bites, and control retrieve speed. The split tail design adds natural motion and bulk behind the blade — when bass are short-striking the spinnerbait and missing the hook, the trailer gives them a target to commit to. The trailer also increases buoyancy, allowing you to slow the retrieve while keeping the bait running high in the water column above weeds and brush. 20 per pack in 3 colors.

Key Features

• Reduces Short-Bites — Gives Bass a Target — When bass are short-striking the spinnerbait blade and missing the hook, the Split Tail Trailer adds bulk and a natural target behind the blade that encourages fish to commit fully to the bait; the trailer extends the strike zone behind the hook and gives short-striking bass something to bite and hold onto rather than just slapping at the blade.
• Slows Retrieve While Running High — Adding the trailer increases the bait’s buoyancy and water resistance, allowing you to slow the retrieve speed while keeping the spinnerbait running high in the water column; most effective when fishing over submerged weeds, brush, or shallow structure where a fast retrieve is needed to stay above the cover but a slower presentation is needed to draw strikes.
• Natural Split Tail Action — The split tail design produces a natural, fluttering action on the retrieve that adds movement and vibration to the spinnerbait presentation; the two tail sections move independently, creating a lifelike baitfish tail action that complements the blade’s flash and vibration.
• 4" Length — 20 Per Pack — The 4-inch length fits a wide range of spinnerbait sizes and hook gaps; 20 trailers per pack provides plenty of replacements for a full day of fishing.

Best For

• Spinnerbait Trailer — Short-Bite Solution — The primary application; thread the Split Tail Trailer onto the hook of your spinnerbait when bass are short-striking the blade; the trailer gives fish a target to commit to and extends the effective strike zone behind the hook.
• Slow-Rolling Over Weeds & Brush — Add the trailer when you need to slow-roll a spinnerbait over submerged weeds, brush, or shallow structure; the increased buoyancy keeps the bait running high at slower retrieve speeds without the blade losing its spin.
• Swim Jig Trailer — Also effective as a trailer on a swim jig; the split tail action adds a natural baitfish tail kick to the swim jig presentation on a steady retrieve.

Features:

• The River2Sea Saltwater Silent Whopper Plopper 130S is a silent, 5 inch, 1 3/8 ounce saltwater-optimized model of the Whopper Plopper.
• No rattles for a subtle presentation, which is ideal when fishing calmer waters where the prop alone generates plenty of surface action.
• Tail is made of super-tough plastic that flexes right back into place whether it gets chomped on or gets cast into a bridge piling.
• Pre-rigged with size 1 EWG 4X Strong treble hooks.
• Available in a select range of saltwater fishing colorways.

The River2Sea Silent Whopper Plopper 130S is a 5-inch, 1 3/8 ounce model of the legendary topwater prop lure created by Larry Dahlberg. Unlike the regular 130, the Saltwater Silent version doesn't have any noisy rattles, making it perfect for calm water fishing where the prop's surface action is enough to attract fish.

Its tail is made of super-tough plastic that flexes right back into place whether it gets chomped on or gets cast into a bridge piling. And since they are molded from high-quality plastic, every single one comes out of the box with the perfect tail size and angle to make a sound that simply drives fish crazy. The River2Sea Whopper Plopper 130S is "roll-resistant" and works well at a variety of speeds. Sound experiments have suggested that even at constant speeds the tail kicks out sounds that vary as much as an octave in pitch as opposed to the more monotone metal tails.

High Level Braided Line Cutters are quickly becoming a favorite for braid, mono, and fluorocarbon fishing lines.  Many fishermen believe that any ordinary pair of scissors can handle cutting lines effectively, but this is often far from the truth.

Designed with a serrated edge, these cutters can effortlessly slice through braided lines without fraying or causing tension on the line. No longer will you have to struggle with your old cutters mashing the braid multiple times before finally making a clean cut.

The High Level Cutters can achieve a precise and clean cut on the first try, without applying any tension on the line. With these specialized braided line cutters, you can easily create smooth connections to leaders, swivels, split rings, hooks, lures, and more.

The Zoom Ultravibe Speed Craw is a 3.5-inch craw bait built around a high-vibration claw design that generates maximum water displacement and vibration on the retrieve — especially on a swim jig, where the distinct claw shape pumps and flutters to produce a lifelike crawfish swimming action. The “Ultravibe” name reflects the claw geometry: shaped to move more water and produce more vibration than a standard craw profile at the same retrieve speed. Versatile across multiple rig styles. 12 per pack.

Key Features

• High-Vibration Claw Design — Maximum Water Displacement — The Ultravibe Speed Craw’s claws are shaped to generate maximum vibration and water displacement on the retrieve; the claw geometry produces more movement per inch of retrieve than a standard craw profile, making the bait detectable to bass through their lateral line at greater distances; most effective on a swim jig or steady retrieve where the claws are continuously pumping and fluttering.
• Swim Jig Trailer — Primary Application — The Speed Craw’s claw action is most pronounced on a swim jig; the claws pump and flutter on a steady retrieve, producing a lifelike crawfish swimming action that complements the swim jig’s lateral movement; the vibration generated by the claws adds a tactile element to the presentation that bass detect through their lateral line in both clear and stained water.
• Versatile Rig Compatibility — Effective as a jig trailer (flipping and casting jigs), on a Texas rig, Carolina rig, and shaky head; the compact 3.5" profile fits a wide range of hook sizes and jig styles; the claw action remains effective on the fall and during slow retrieves on bottom-contact rigs.
• 3.5" Profile — 12 Per Pack — The 3.5-inch size is a versatile mid-size craw profile that matches a wide range of crawfish sizes; 12 baits per pack.

Color Selection Guide

Best For

• Swim Jig Trailer — Thread the Speed Craw on the back of a swim jig and retrieve steadily along grass edges, laydowns, and dock lines; the claw vibration adds a tactile element to the swim jig presentation that draws bass from a distance.
• Jig Trailer — Flipping & Casting — Effective on the back of a flipping or casting jig; the claws rise into the defensive crawfish posture on the bottom and flutter on the fall, triggering strikes from bass holding tight to structure.
• Texas Rig & Carolina Rig — Effective on a Texas rig for fishing through heavy cover and on a Carolina rig for covering open water and transition areas; the claw action remains effective on the fall and during slow drags along the bottom.
• Shaky Head — The compact 3.5" profile pairs well with a shaky head for a finesse craw presentation; the claws flutter on the shake and produce vibration on the fall that triggers strikes from pressured bass.

P-Line's fast adoption with P-Line CXX Crystal Clear as the best co-polymer line can be attributed to its diverse versatility. From Bass fishermen who appreciated its natural green hues for stained waters and its crystal clear coloring for clear water bodies to its incredible abrasion resistance when navigating around structures, P-Line garnered a wide-spread appeal.

Saltwater anglers were also impressed by its strong knot strength and low stretch, while trout anglers noted its strength-to-line diameter ratio. When it comes to catching a big trout, yellowtail, cobia, or calico bass around a sticks or rocks, anglers trust the immense strength of P-Line to get them the catch they're after.
