Lucky Craft Pointer SP 128 Jerkbait

The water is cold, the bite is slow, and bass are holding tight to structure. This is the moment the Lucky Craft Pointer SP 128 was made for. A larger, deeper-running sibling to the legendary Pointer 78, the Pointer 128 brings the same deadly suspending action to bigger water and bigger fish — with a profile that commands attention.

At the heart of the Pointer 128 is a specially designed brass weight system that creates an exceptionally low center of gravity. This engineering detail is what makes the bait so effective: when you stop the retrieve, the lure doesn't just pause — it wobbles and vibrates in place, emitting a subtle, irresistible bass-calling vibration at 4–5 feet deep. Then a short twitch of the rod tip triggers a fluid, underwater walk-the-dog action that triggers reaction strikes from even the most reluctant fish.

Features

• Specially designed brass weights create a very low center of gravity
• Wobbles and vibrates on pause — emits bass-calling vibration while suspended
• Suspends at 4–5 feet — stays in the strike zone as long as you need it to
• Short rod twitch generates underwater walk-the-dog action
• Larger profile than the Pointer 78 — ideal for targeting bigger bass
• Premium Lucky Craft construction with durable, realistic finishes

Best For

• Techniques: Suspending jerkbait, twitch-and-pause, slow-roll, cold-water finesse
• Conditions: Cold fronts, clear water, post-spawn, winter, early spring
• Species: Largemouth Bass, Smallmouth Bass, Spotted Bass, Striped Bass
• Water: Lakes, reservoirs, deep structure, main lake points

Perfect For

When bass are deep, pressured, and refusing to chase, the Lucky Craft Pointer SP 128 gets down to their level and stays there — vibrating, wobbling, and walking until they can't resist. The big-water jerkbait that delivers when conditions are toughest.

Whether you are a weekend warrior or a seasoned pro, this easy to use top water lure is designed to deliver explosive top water action. Chuck and wind the Berkley® Choppo around cover and in open water for a serious waking action.

The Choppo’s durable tail propeller won’t melt in your tackle box, and the enhanced surface area provides more sound and spray. The precision balance of the bait ensures that its action begins immediately and it swims straight at a variety of speeds.

Justin Lucas Pro Tip 75: Cast and retrieve around all types of shallow cover. Best suited for calmer conditions.

FEATURES

• Easy-to-use top water lure
• Durable, cupped propeller tail
• Enhanced propeller surface area for maximum surface disturbance
• Swims straight at a variety of speeds
• Equipped with sharp Fusion19™ hooks

Built for freshwater anglers who refuse to compromise on casting rod performance when traveling, the Daiwa Ardito TR is a 3-piece travel casting rod engineered with the same blank technologies found in Daiwa's full-length casting rods. The V-Flex Ferrule Joint System uses strategically placed ferrules that bend with the rod rather than creating stiff joints, delivering smooth, powerful action through the blank that closely mimics a one-piece rod. The X-45 Bias Construction wraps the blank fibers at a 45-degree bias to prevent twisting under load, providing greater strength, sensitivity, and hook-setting power than conventional blank construction. Breaks down and stores in an included semi-hard travel case that protects the rod during travel. 

Key Features

• V-Flex Ferrule Joint System — Strategically placed ferrules bend with the rod rather than creating stiff joints at the connection points; delivers smooth, powerful action through the full blank that closely mimics a one-piece casting rod's performance.
• X-45 Bias Construction — Blank fibers wrapped at a 45-degree bias prevent twisting under load; provides greater strength, sensitivity, and hook-setting power compared to conventional 0/90-degree blank construction.
• Semi-Hard Travel Case — Included semi-hard case is sturdy yet pliable; protects all three rod sections during travel in luggage, overhead bins, or rod tubes without the bulk of a hard case.
• 3-Piece Design — Breaks down into three sections for compact travel storage; fits in luggage and carry-on bags for airline travel, road trips, and any situation where a full-length casting rod is impractical.
• Casting Rod Action — 3 models in Medium and Medium Heavy power ratings for baitcasting applications from versatile freshwater bass to heavier presentations.

The Deps Circuit VIB Blade Bait is a meticulously designed and tested Japanese blade bait that serves as a highly realistic baitfish imitator using top-quality componentry to catch fish in a wide range of conditions. Engineered for versatility and effectiveness, this premium blade bait delivers the vibration and action that triggers strikes from bass feeding on small baitfish.

Across the back, the Circuit VIB features two rigging slots that allow anglers to change the amount of vibration from a tight vibration to a wide wobble using the included snap—without ever having to re-tie. This innovative design lets you quickly adjust to changing conditions and fish preferences, making it incredibly versatile for different presentations and depths.

Armed with two Ryugi double hooks to catch those short-striking fish, the Deps Circuit VIB Blade Bait excels at vertical jigging deep structure, burning across grass flats, and catching schooling fish that are feeding on small baitfish. The realistic profile combined with premium hooks ensures superior hookup ratios even when bass are finicky or striking short.

Key Features:

• Dual Rigging Slots: Change vibration from tight to wide wobble without re-tying
• Included Snap: Quick-change system for adjusting action on the fly
• Ryugi Double Hooks: Two premium double hooks for catching short-striking fish
• Realistic Baitfish Profile: Highly detailed design imitates small forage
• Premium Japanese Construction: Top-quality componentry for durability and performance
• Versatile Presentations: Works for vertical jigging, burning, and yo-yoing
• Multiple Sizes Available: 3/8oz and 1/2oz options for different depths and conditions

• Rip-and-Fall: Aggressive rips followed by controlled falls

Rigging Options:

The dual rigging slots allow you to customize the action:

• Front Slot: Produces tight, fast vibration for aggressive presentations
• Rear Slot: Creates wide wobble for slower, more subtle action
• Quick-Change Snap: Switch between slots instantly without re-tying

Ideal Applications:

• Vertical jigging on deep structure, ledges, and drop-offs
• Burning across grass flats and shallow vegetation
• Schooling fish feeding on small baitfish
• Cold water conditions when bass are deep
• Clear to moderately stained water

When you need a versatile blade bait that delivers realistic baitfish imitation with adjustable action and premium components, the Deps Circuit VIB is the choice of serious anglers targeting bass in a wide range of conditions.

The Berkley Stunna 112 Jerkbait combines sharp darting action with a natural slow sink that keeps the presentation working after you stop moving the rod. Developed with Bassmaster Classic champion Hank Cherry, it gives bass anglers a way to follow an aggressive burst with a subtle falling pause, especially when fish follow a bait without committing.

A single tungsten weight-transfer system helps with casting distance, including in adverse conditions. Once the bait reaches its working zone, short rod snaps create wide darts and easy 180-degree head turns. Cast along a point or a baitfish-holding bank, work a few quick twitches, then let the pause become part of the retrieve rather than dead time.

Keep the Pause Working for You

Unlike a floating jerkbait that rises at rest, the Stunna slowly sinks when paused. That movement can help tempt neutral or inactive fish, but it also means you need to watch your pause length around shallow cover and bottom. Choose it when you want a sinking pause rather than a bait that stays suspended in place.

The Right Pick for a Twitch-and-Pause Bite

Best for: largemouth and smallmouth bass, cast-and-jerk presentations, and working baitfish areas along points, banks and open-water edges. Start in clear to lightly stained water where fish can track the bait. Try longer pauses for reluctant fish and a quicker cadence when bass respond to an escaping baitfish presentation.

What Makes the Stunna Stand Out

• Developed with Bassmaster Classic champion Hank Cherry.
• Lifelike action and a design focused on casting distance and durability.
• Single tungsten weight-transfer system helps deliver longer casts.
• Strong darting action with easy 180-degree head turns.
• Natural slow sink on the pause targets neutral and inactive fish.

Stunna 112 Models & Specs

Shared specifications apply across the listed colors. Running depth and sink behavior vary with line, retrieve and fishing conditions.

Get the Dart Without Pulling the Bait Straight

Start with a few turns of the reel to get the bait down, then use short rod-tip snaps followed by a little slack. Reel only enough to regain control before the next twitch. Experiment with single twitches and two-twitch sequences before changing colors.

For a manageable fluorocarbon main line, consider Seaguar Invizx Fluorocarbon Line. If you prefer another fluorocarbon option for your jerkbait setup, compare Seaguar Tatsu Fluorocarbon Line. Match line strength to your rod, cover and target fish.

Tackle Express Tips

• Test the sink beside the boat or bank before your first long cast so you can judge a safe pause length.
• Change cadence before changing baits. A single twitch and a longer pause can give the same lure a very different presentation.
• Try the Perch finish around perch forage, or a lighter baitfish-style finish such as Hankie Pankie when that better matches what bass are feeding on.

Stunna 112 Questions, Answered

Does the Stunna 112 suspend?
No. It is designed to sink slowly on the pause rather than remain suspended in place.

How deep does this model run?
The standard Stunna 112 has a listed running range of 3–6 feet. Your line and retrieve influence its working depth.

How should I retrieve it?
Start with short twitches and pauses, leaving enough slack after each snap for the bait to dart and turn. Adjust pause length to fish response and available clearance.

Are the colors different sizes?
The colors on this listing share the Stunna 112's 4-3/8-inch length and 1/2-ounce lure weight. Choose the finish to suit local forage and visibility.

Tungsten changes everything. The Strike King Tour Grade Tungsten Swinging Football Head is denser and more compact than lead, transmitting every tick, tap, and drag of the bottom straight to your hands. But what sets it apart is the swivel eye attachment — your hook swings freely, amplifying your trailer's action in a way a fixed jig simply can't match. Swap in any hook and trailer you want, dial in your presentation, and let the tungsten do the talking.

Key Features

• 100% tungsten — denser and more sensitive than lead, smaller profile for the same weight
• Swivel eye hook attachment — free-swinging motion that intensifies trailer action
• Use any hook and trailer — ultimate versatility for any finesse presentation
• Football head design — rocks and stands up on the bottom to trigger strikes
• Available in 1/4, 3/8, 1/2, and 3/4 oz — covers finesse to deep water applications
• Sold in 1-pack (3/4 oz) and 2-pack (1/4, 3/8, 1/2 oz)

Specifications

The G-Ratt Baits Sneaky Pete Swimbaits weighs 2.4 ounces and is a slow sinking bait. This is a very unique glide bait. You can slow retrieve it for a nice gliding action. You can swoop the rod tip for the bait to glide to one side and pause and swoop again to bring it back to the other side. A favorite retrieve is reel cranking it to make a very fast darting action back and forth like a fleeing baitfish. You can do little twitches of the rod with just the tip of the rod while reeling and the baits head will rock left to right which will imitate a swimming baitfish. The bait can also be “waked” on a slow retrieve when brought to the surface. It has a beautiful tight subtle rolling wake which we’ve found effective early mornings and late evenings. Our new weighting system adds a realistic rattling sound. This bait has a slow sinking ratio of 1 foot in 2-3 seconds. The Sneaky Pete comes equipped with two size 1 hooks. The hooks can be changed if desired. The tails are easily replaceable. 

Pistol Pete is a scaled-down version of Sneaky Pete. Coming complete with strong components, rotating hook hangers and 3X hooks to ensure you land more fish! Pistol Pete is weighted with steel bearings to produce a nice rattling sound to help enhance that big bite!

Sneaky Pete:

The Strike King Sexy Spoon is built to do one thing exceptionally well: look like a dying baitfish. Its wide-body design produces an erratic, darting wobble that flashes light in every direction — exactly what a fleeing or injured shad looks like to a hungry bass. Cast it over grass, flutter it down ledges, or rip it through open water and hang on. Available in two sizes to match the forage and the situation, with a premium treble hook that drives home solid hook sets on every strike.

Key Features

• Wide-body flutter design — erratic, darting wobble that mimics injured baitfish
• Multi-directional flash — reflects light realistically to draw fish from a distance
• Versatile presentation — cast, flutter, rip, or troll at various depths
• Premium treble hook — sharp and strong for solid hook sets
• Two sizes — 4" for finesse applications, 5.5" for big-bait presentations
• 5 proven color patterns per size — matched to common shad forage

It's the go-to when you want to keep it simple and let the bait do the work.

Best Fishing Techniques

• Jighead — thread onto a 1/8–1/4 oz round or football jighead for a natural swimming presentation; the curly tail pulses and flutters on a slow, steady retrieve or on the fall
• Spinnerbait Trailer — pin onto a 3/8–1/2 oz spinnerbait to add tail action and a slightly slower fall that triggers strikes on the pause

Tackle Express Tips

1. Match jighead weight to depth and retrieve speed — Use a 1/8 oz jighead for shallow, slow presentations (under 8ft) where you want a natural, drifting fall. Move to a 1/4 oz for mid-depth (8–18ft) or when you need to cover water faster. A 2/0 hook is the right size for the 4" body — don't go too heavy or you'll kill the tail action.
2. Luminous White for night fishing and low light — The Luminous White (#038) is one of the most underrated colors in the lineup — charge it with a flashlight before casting and it glows in the water, making it deadly for night bass fishing and low-light conditions. Chartreuse w/ Large Black Flake (#156) is your go-to reaction color in stained water during the day.
3. The 4" is the sweet spot for walleye — The 4" Single Tail Grub on a 1/8–1/4 oz jighead is one of the most proven walleye presentations ever made. Smoke w/ Large Black Flake (#231) and Chartreuse w/ Large Green & Chartreuse Flake (#169) are top walleye colors. Drag it slowly along the bottom or use a lift-and-drop retrieve over structure.

FAQ

Q: What's the difference between the 4" and 5" Single Tail Grub?
A: The 4" is the most versatile size — compact enough for finesse jighead presentations and light trailer applications, while still large enough to attract quality fish. The 5" has more bulk and a bigger profile, making it better for larger bass, pike, and situations where you want more bulk as a spinnerbait or buzzbait trailer. Start with the 4" for most situations and move to the 5" when you want more presence in the water.

Q: What jighead size works best with the 4" Single Tail Grub?
A: A 1/8–1/4 oz round jighead is the standard starting point. Use a 1/8 oz for a slower fall in shallow water or when fish are finicky, and a 1/4–3/8 oz for deeper water or when you need to cover water faster. A 2/0 hook is the right size for the 4" body.

Q: Is the 4" Single Tail Grub good for walleye?
A: Yes — it's one of the most proven walleye jighead baits available. The 4" profile is the ideal size for walleye, and the curly tail produces action at the slow retrieve speeds walleye prefer. Smoke w/ Large Black Flake and Chartreuse w/ Large Green & Chartreuse Flake are top walleye color picks.

The Yamamoto 7" Senko is a large soft plastic stickbait for bass anglers who want a substantial profile and a simple presentation. Use it to offer more bait length than the 5- or 6-inch models, whether you are pitching a Texas rig around cover or letting a wacky rig sink through an open pocket. Each pack contains 5 baits in one selected color.

Why choose the 7-inch Senko?

• Large stickbait profile: A deliberate step up in size when you want a bigger offering; it does not guarantee bigger fish.
• Salt-impregnated body: Supports a weightless sinking presentation with subtle movement on the fall.
• Flexible rigging: Fish it Texas rigged around cover or wacky rigged where an exposed hook is practical.

Specifications

Match the size to your fishing

Choose the 7-inch model when profile size is part of your plan, rather than assuming a bigger worm is always better. If bass follow without committing or you want a smaller offering, compare the 6-inch Senko. Check your rod's lure-weight rating against the complete rig, and choose a hook with enough gap to clear the thick plastic.

Green Pumpkin Black Flake and Watermelon Black Flake are natural-color starting points. Black with Large Blue Flake offers a darker silhouette to try in reduced visibility, including low light. Adjust color and retrieve to what you observe rather than treating one combination as universal.

3 Tackle Express Tips

1. Use a controlled casting motion. A smooth lob can place a large soft bait accurately without the abrupt acceleration that may tear it off a wacky hook. Check the bait after hard casts.
2. Keep the hook gap clear. On a Texas rig, make sure the body can compress enough to expose the point. Reposition bunched plastic before fishing it again.
3. Pause near the target. After the initial fall, make a short lift and let the bait settle again. This gives you a way to work an open pocket without immediately pulling the worm out of it.

Frequently asked questions

How many 7-inch Senkos come in a pack?

There are five soft baits per package, all in the selected color.

Is the 7-inch Senko only for night fishing?

No. Low light is one situation to try it, but profile size, cover, forage, and fish response matter during daylight too.

Can I wacky rig this size?

Yes. Match the hook and any ring or sleeve to the larger body, and use that presentation where an exposed hook is suitable.

Do I need an added weight?

Not always. Start weightless when you can control the fall, then add weight if depth, current, or wind requires it. Added weight changes the presentation.

The Megabass Shading-X R 62 is fueled by a patented balancer system that enables dizzyingly high-pitch action and improved cast performance, elevating the finesse shad to exquisite new heights. Reengineered to perform in Japan’s toughest conditions, the Shading-X R 62 series is built to deliver bites when bass are keyed on precise, high-pitch action. The main spherical weight of the Triangle Counter Balancing System. operates as a traditional moving balancer, increasing cast distance on bait finesse and spinning setups alike.

The upper balancer truly comes alive when twitches cause it to shift along its lateral axis, adding unpredictable dynamism to the Shading-X R’s action. With one fixed weight and two moving balancers, the lure’s center of gravity is dynamically triangulated in every configuration from cast to retrieve, powering the Shading-X’s compelling performance. The thin, tapered body generates a high-pitched vibration that practically bursts at the seams, supercharging the kind of tight action that is often required in finesse situations.

Upon retrieve, the balancers roll into the forward position for an optimal head-down posture, enabling a hair-trigger responsiveness that will even bring the Shading-X R to life with ultra-slow pulls or extra-sensitive angler input. With a fast retrieve, the high-pitch vibration compels targets into decisive reaction bites. The engineering of the Shading-X R 62 series brings disparate parts together in perfect harmony, leveraging dynamic weight triangulation to deliver a new high-pitch predator for the toughest angling conditions.

The Deps Lure Sleeve is a sleeve for storing your swimbaits and keeping them safe and straight.  It is perfect for big baits that don't fit in a tackle box, or for shore fishermen who carry a small amount of lures in their bag and run around the field.  The  Deps Lure Sleeve can be easily inserted and removed by pressing both ends of the sleeve and opening the mouth.  

We love it because it keeps the tail and fins straight so the bait swims correct.  If just a little bend in a tail happens, the bait will not swim right.  It also keeps the paint from being scratched by other baits or hooks.  The clear plastic allows you to see quickly which bait is which.  This is a must have for all brands of baits.

Why Buy the Daiwa Yamamoto Neko Fat 4"?

The Daiwa Yamamoto Neko Fat 4" brings the proven Daiwa × Yamamoto Neko Fat formula into a more compact, finesse-friendly size. Combining Daiwa's precision detailing with Yamamoto's legendary salt-impregnated soft plastic, the 4" Neko Fat features a thick Senko-style body and a unique bulbous tail that produces a quivering, head-down action that bass can't resist. Fished weightless or on a Neko rig with a nail weight in the nose, it's one of the most versatile finesse baits in the lineup. 10 per pack, 10 proven Yamamoto colors.

Main Use & Benefit

A 4-inch compact thick-body Neko rig worm combining Yamamoto's salt-impregnated soft plastic with a Senko-style body and bulbous tail — the nail weight in the nose creates a head-down, quivering presentation that triggers strikes from finicky bass at any depth, while the shorter profile excels in clear water and finesse situations where the 5" is too large.

Problem It Solves

The 5" Neko Fat is a proven fish-catcher, but its larger profile can be too much for ultra-clear water, finicky smallmouth, and spotted bass that key on smaller forage. The 4" Neko Fat delivers the same thick-body action and bulbous tail quiver in a more compact package — ideal for downsizing without sacrificing the unique action that makes the Neko Fat series stand out.

Advantages

• ✅ Compact 4" profile — ideal for clear water, smallmouth, and finesse situations where the 5" is too large
• ✅ Thick Senko-style body — more bulk and presence than a standard Neko worm
• ✅ Bulbous tail — unique quivering action that differentiates it from standard stick baits
• ✅ Nail weight compatible — reach fish at depth on heavier gear
• ✅ Yamamoto salt-impregnated formula — natural feel, fish hold on longer
• ✅ Daiwa precision detailing — consistent quality and action
• ✅ 10 proven Yamamoto color options
• ✅ 10 per pack
• ⚠️ Thicker body requires a slightly larger O-ring for wacky rigging than a standard stick bait

When to Choose It

Choose the 4" Neko Fat over the 5" when you're fishing ultra-clear water, targeting smallmouth or spotted bass, or when you need to downsize to get more bites without giving up the Neko Fat's unique thick-body action. It's equally effective weightless on a wacky rig for shallow presentations and on a Neko rig with a nail weight for deeper structure.

Best Fishing Techniques

• Neko Rig — insert a 1/32–1/16 oz nail weight into the nose; hook through the center with a #1 or #2 wacky hook; the head-down fall and quivering tail action triggers strikes on the drop and at rest on the bottom
• Wacky Rig — hook through the center with a #1/0 wacky hook; use an O-ring to extend bait life; the thick body produces a pronounced, symmetrical wiggle on the fall
• Drop Shot — nose-hook on a #1 or #2 hook, 12–18" above the weight; the bulbous tail quivers naturally in the strike zone
• Shaky Head — thread onto a 3/16 oz shaky head for a stand-up presentation on hard bottom; the thick body and bulbous tail quiver on the pause
• Weightless Texas Rig — rig on a 2/0–3/0 EWG hook for a slow-falling presentation through sparse cover

• Post-frontal high pressure and slow-bite days
• Docks, laydowns, and open water on wacky rig
• Year-round — especially effective in summer (deep Neko) and spring (shallow wacky)

Tackle Express Tips

1. Start with a 1/32 oz nail weight — The 4" Neko Fat's thick body is heavier than a standard finesse worm, so a 1/32 oz nail weight is usually enough for presentations up to 15ft. Move to a 1/16 oz nail weight for deeper water (15–35ft) or when you need a faster fall to stay in contact with the bait in current or wind.
2. Green Pumpkin for clear water, Electric Shad for reaction — Green Pumpkin (#297) is your go-to in clear to lightly stained water where a natural bottom-matching color is critical. Switch to Electric Shad (#973) or Smoke w/ Black, Blue & Chartreuse Flake (#214) when you need a reaction color or when bass are keying on shad in open water.
3. Downsize to the 4" when bites slow on the 5" — If you're fishing the 5" Neko Fat and bites slow down, switch to the 4" before changing colors or techniques. The smaller profile often triggers strikes from fish that have seen the larger bait — especially in clear water and post-frontal conditions.

FAQ

Q: What's the difference between the 4" and 5" Neko Fat?
A: Both use the same Daiwa × Yamamoto thick Senko-style body and bulbous tail formula. The 4" is the compact, finesse-oriented version — ideal for clear water, smallmouth, spotted bass, and situations where a smaller profile gets more bites. The 5" has more bulk and presence for largemouth in deeper water and situations where a larger profile is more effective. Start with the 4" when conditions are toughest or when targeting smaller bass species.

Q: What nail weight size works best for the 4" Neko Fat?
A: A 1/32 oz nail weight works best for shallow to mid-depth presentations (under 15ft). Use a 1/16 oz for deeper water (15–35ft) or when you need a faster fall. Insert the nail weight into the nose (blunt end) of the worm for the best head-down fall angle.

Q: Is the 4" Neko Fat good for smallmouth bass?
A: Yes — it's an excellent smallmouth bait on Neko rig and drop shot over rock and hard bottom. The compact 4" profile matches the smaller forage smallmouth key on in clear lakes and rivers. Natural Shad (#306) and Baby Bass (#305) are top smallmouth color picks.
