The Lobina Rico and Rio Rico Poppers give you two ways to put a baitfish-style surface presentation in front of bass. Their cupped mouths let you work short pops and splashes, then stop the lure near a promising target. A feather-dressed rear hook adds a finishing detail when you slow down and let the bait sit.

Picture an early-morning cast beside a dock: a short twitch breaks the surface, a pause lets the ripples spread, and the lure stays in the strike zone instead of racing past it. Choose the compact Rico for a smaller profile or the larger Rio Rico when you want more body size and casting weight.

Keep the Presentation Where Bass Can Find It

A fast-moving surface lure can leave a small feeding window too quickly. A popper lets you control both the disturbance and the time spent beside a dock corner, open pocket, or shoreline target. It is a useful choice when bass are looking up but need a slower presentation. The tradeoff: exposed treble hooks are better suited to open water and cover edges than thick grass or tangled wood.

Rico or Rio Rico?

Pick the Rico when you want a compact baitfish profile, especially around smaller forage or on calm water. Choose the Rio Rico for a larger profile and heavier lure. Match your rod's lure rating to the model rather than choosing by color alone. The variant selector combines model and color: options beginning with “RIO Rico” are the larger size.

Best For Surface-Feeding Bass

Use these poppers for largemouth and smallmouth bass with a pop-and-pause retrieve around points, docks, shoreline shade, and open lanes beside vegetation. Start during low-light periods, overcast weather, or calm to lightly rippled conditions when surface activity is visible. If wind and chop make it difficult to control the lure, change your position or switch presentations.

The Details Behind Each Pop

• Cupped mouth: creates surface disturbance with short rod-tip movements.
• Feather-dressed rear hook: adds a baitfish-style finishing touch.
• Gamakatsu hooks: supplied in model-specific sizes.
• Two distinct sizes: choose a compact or larger presentation without changing lure style.
• Multiple finishes: select a subdued, reflective, or solid-color look to suit your water and light.

Compare the Two Models

Make Each Twitch Count

Cast past the target when possible and allow the landing rings to settle. Use a short twitch with a little slack in the line, then pause. Try one or two pops followed by a longer rest before speeding up. Let the fish take the lure and the line tighten before sweeping the rod, rather than reacting to the splash alone.

Choose a rod rated for the selected lure weight with enough tip give to work treble-hook baits. For a straightforward popper setup, consider Sunline Supernatural Clear Monofilament, matching line strength to your rod and surrounding cover.

Tackle Express Tips

• Change the pause first: if bass follow without committing, let the lure sit longer before changing colors.
• Start with contrast: try translucent finishes in clear, bright conditions or a solid silhouette in lower light, then let fish response guide your next choice.
• Keep a second surface option ready: when bass want a moving, side-to-side presentation instead of a stationary popper, try the Heddon Super Spook Jr. walking bait.

Questions Before Your First Cast

What is the difference between Rico and Rio Rico?
The Rico is 2 3/8 inches and 1/4 ounce; the Rio Rico is 2 7/8 inches and 7/16 ounce. Choose based on the profile you want and your rod's lure rating.

Should I retrieve it continuously?
Start with short pops separated by pauses. Increase the pace if fish respond to movement, or lengthen the pause when they follow but hesitate.

Can I fish it through heavy vegetation?
The exposed treble hooks can catch grass and wood. Work open pockets and vegetation edges rather than pulling it through dense cover.

Choose your Rico or Rio Rico model and color above, and get your next surface-fishing setup ready with Tackle Express.

The Z-Man Gobius is a highly realistic, pre-rigged swimbait designed specifically to mimic the invasive round goby, a primary forage for smallmouth and largemouth bass in the Great Lakes and beyond. It is engineered as a hybrid between a swimbait and a structure jig, allowing it to "creep" and "glide" across rocky bottoms where traditional baits might get snagged.

Key Features:

• 10X Tough ElaZtech: Poured from Z-Man's proprietary superplastic, the Gobius is incredibly soft yet durable enough to withstand dozens of aggressive strikes.
• Internal Jig Harness: Features a "bottom-hugging" weight system that keeps the bait upright and enables a natural tail-up posture at rest, perfectly imitating a feeding goby.
• Snag-Resistant Design: Includes a specialized split dorsal fin brush guard that protects the hook point from structure while compressing easily to ensure a high hookset ratio.
• Subtle Swimming Action: A small, rounded paddle tail delivers a fluid, low-frequency vibration that mimics the quick-kick-and-glide movement of a live goby.

Performance Advantages:

• Round Goby Imitation: Highly realistic invasive species match
• Hybrid Design: Swimbait and structure jig combination
• Rocky Bottom Specialist: Creeps and glides without snagging
• Tail-Up Posture: Natural feeding goby imitation at rest
• High Hookset Ratio: Brush guard compresses easily
• Incredible Durability: 10X Tough ElaZtech withstands dozens of strikes
• Quick-Kick-and-Glide: Subtle swimming action mimics live goby

Ideal Applications:

• Great Lakes fishing
• Smallmouth bass fishing
• Largemouth bass fishing
• Rocky bottom fishing
• Structure fishing
• Round goby forage areas
• Any goby imitation application

Recommended Techniques:

• Creeping retrieve
• Gliding presentations
• Bottom-hugging retrieve
• Slow dragging
• Structure fishing

When you need a pre-rigged swimbait with 10X Tough ElaZtech durability, internal jig harness for bottom-hugging weight system and tail-up posture at rest, split dorsal fin brush guard for snag resistance and high hookset ratio, subtle swimming action with quick-kick-and-glide movement, and highly realistic round goby imitation for smallmouth and largemouth bass in the Great Lakes and rocky bottom structure, the Z-Man Gobius Swimbaits are the choice of serious Great Lakes and structure fishing anglers.

Note: 3-inch pre-rigged swimbait. 10X Tough ElaZtech material. Internal jig harness with bottom-hugging weight. Split dorsal fin brush guard. Tail-up posture at rest. Mimics invasive round goby. Perfect for Great Lakes and rocky bottoms.

The Rapala Jigging Rap pairs a balanced, weighted minnow profile with an action few jigs can match: it swims in tantalizing circles under the ice or in open water, right where suspended game fish live. Lift it and let it go, and the Jigging Rap keeps swimming in circles, drawing the attention of fish that a straight up-and-down presentation never moves.

Why Suspended Fish Eat It

Jigging baits fished straight up and down give fish only one look. The Jigging Rap's balanced, weighted minnow profile swims in circles instead, covering water on every drop and staying in front of the fish longer, which matters most when they hang off bottom and refuse to chase.

The Right Pick If...

Reach for the Jigging Rap when you are working suspended game fish through the ice or vertically in open water, when you want a bait that moves in wide circles rather than dropping straight down, or when you need a size for every situation: the lineup runs from the 1 1/4-inch W2 to the 3 1/2-inch W9.

How to Fish It

Snap it up and let it swim back down for a classic ice jigging cadence, work a lift-and-drop over likely marks, or bottom bounce it yo-yo style off the bottom for the unbeatable results this bait is known for.

Best For

Techniques: ice jigging, open-water vertical jigging, and yo-yo bottom bouncing. Situations: suspended game fish under the ice or in open water, with natural baitfish patterns for clearer water and glow patterns for low-light or stained-water bites.

Key Features

• Balanced, weighted minnow profile that swims in tantalizing circles
• Single reversed hooks with center treble and eyelet
• Fishes under the ice or in open water for suspended game fish
• Also bottom bounced yo-yo style off the bottom
• Wide size range from W2 to W9 with natural and glow color patterns
• One jig per package

Sizes at a Glance

One jig per package. Color availability varies by size, so check the variant picker for the patterns offered in each.

Tackle Express Tips

• Match the weight to your depth: the lighter W2 and W3 suit shallow water or fish holding high, while the heavier W7 and W9 get down to deeper basins.
• Give each drop a pause so the circular swim action has time to work before your next snap.
• Keep a glow pattern rigged for dawn, dusk, or stained water when visibility drops.

Questions Anglers Ask

What sizes does the Jigging Rap come in?
Five sizes: W2 (1 1/4", 1/8 oz), W3 (1 1/2", 3/16 oz), W5 (2", 5/16 oz), W7 (2 3/4", 5/8 oz), and W9 (3 1/2", 7/8 oz), each sold one jig per package.

Can I fish it outside of ice season?
Yes. It swims in circles under the ice or in open water, and it works well vertical jigging or yo-yo bounced off the bottom whenever fish are suspended.

Should I choose a natural or glow color?
The lineup includes both. Natural patterns imitate baitfish in clearer water, while glow options stand out in low light or stained water. Color availability varies by size.

Complete the Setup

Pair the Jigging Rap with other proven vertical presentations: the Eurotackle Z-Viber 1/16oz Lipless Crankbait for a finesse ice option, the Berkley Vibrato Jigging Lure for a vibrating blade-bait action, or the War Eagle Jiggin Spoon for another jigging-spoon look.

The Carolina Keeper is an adjustable plastic line stop that keeps a sliding sinker separated from your hook. Squeeze it with needle-nose pliers to open the slit, thread it onto your line, and release it at the position you want. It lets you change the distance between weight and bait without retying a swivel. Each pack contains 8 keepers in Clear or Red.

Why use a Carolina Keeper?

• Adjustable spacing: Move the keeper to change how far your bait trails behind the sinker.
• Fewer knots in a simple rig: Using one continuous length of line avoids the two connections required by a separate swivel.
• Quick changes: Squeeze and reposition when you want to test a different distance between the weight and hook.

Specifications

• Product: Carolina Keeper
• Material: Plastic
• Purpose: Adjustable line stop for sliding weights
• Color options: Clear or Red
• Quantity: 8 per pack
• Installation tool: Needle-nose pliers, sold separately

How to install and adjust

For a simple Carolina-style setup, slide your sinker onto the line first. Grip the keeper so squeezing opens its central slit. Thread the free end of the line through the opening and release the pliers. Tie on your hook, then squeeze the keeper again to set the distance between sinker and hook.

Always squeeze the keeper open before moving it. Check that it holds under the load of your chosen sinker before casting. If it slips, a second keeper may be needed, especially with sinkers of 1/2 ounce or heavier. The keeper is a stop; it does not provide the rotating action of a swivel.

3 Tackle Express Tips

1. Test the hold. Pull against the sinker gently and check that the keeper stays where you set it. Repeat after the first few casts.
2. Adjust one thing at a time. Keep your bait and sinker the same while changing the spacing, so you can judge the effect of that adjustment.
3. Inspect the line. Check for scuffs where the keeper and sinker sit. Re-rig damaged line before continuing, and avoid pulling a closed keeper along the line.

Frequently asked questions

How many Carolina Keepers are in a pack?

Each package contains 8 keepers in the selected color.

Do I need pliers to install one?

Yes. Use needle-nose pliers to squeeze the keeper and open the slit for threading or adjustment.

Does it replace a swivel?

It can replace the swivel's role as a sinker stop in a simple rig. It does not rotate to manage line twist or join two different lines.

What should I do if the keeper slips?

Check the installation and test the setup again. A second keeper may be needed with heavier sinkers. Do not assume the stop will hold every combination of line and weight.

Seaguar Invizx Fluorocarbon Line is at the top of it's class. We love this line for many reasons but the most impressive thing is how limp and strong it is. The limpness is great when using Seaguar Invizx on spinning reels. This reduces memory allowing you to cast further without the curly-que effect.

Lots of fluorocarbon lines lose strength when they improve limpness, but Seaguar was able to keep this line strong and sensitive. It's as sensitive as your girlfriend in high school but as strong as your Russian masseuse. As with all Seaguar fluorocarbon lines, it's diameter is very thin. Invizx is no exception and it still remains one of our top selling lines. These spools are 200 yards of pure fish catching line.

The Zoom Super Fluke 5" has been a proven winner for many years and continues to be — a split-belly soft jerkbait that produces a dying baitfish action on the jerk-and-pause retrieve. The split belly design allows the bait to be rigged weedless for fishing through cover, or threaded onto a darter head, jig head, or scrounger head for a fully exposed hook presentation. On a scrounger head, pop it or swim it subsurface when gamefish are feeding on baitfish. On a darter head, work it with sharp twitches and pauses for a darting, wounded baitfish action that triggers reaction strikes. The 5" profile matches larger baitfish (shad, shiners, golden bream, rainbow trout) and draws strikes from bigger bass. 10 per pack in 19 colors.

Key Features

• Split Belly Design — Weedless or Exposed Hook Rigging — The split belly allows the bait to be rigged weedless with the hook point tucked into the split for fishing through grass, laydowns, and shallow cover without snagging; the same split belly accepts a darter head, jig head, or scrounger head for a fully exposed hook presentation in open water or around sparse cover.
• Dying Baitfish Action — Jerk-and-Pause Retrieve — The soft jerkbait profile produces a darting, wounded baitfish action on the jerk-and-pause retrieve; on the jerk, the bait darts and flashes to one side; on the pause, it glides and slowly sinks with a subtle shimmy that mimics a dying or disoriented baitfish; the pause is often when the strike occurs as bass commit to the bait on the fall.
• Scrounger Head — Subsurface Baitfish Presentation — Thread on a scrounger head and pop or swim it subsurface when gamefish are actively feeding on baitfish near the surface; the scrounger head’s bill produces a wobbling action that complements the Fluke’s soft body shimmy for a highly realistic baitfish presentation.
• 5" Full-Size Profile — Bigger Baitfish, Bigger Bass — The 5" size matches larger baitfish profiles (shad, golden bream, shiners, rainbow trout) and is most effective when bass are keying on larger forage or when targeting big bass that won’t commit to a smaller profile; 10 baits per pack across 19 colors.

Color Selection Guide

Best For

• Weightless Weedless — Shallow Cover & Topwater — Rig weightless with the hook point tucked into the split belly and work through shallow grass, laydowns, and over submerged vegetation; the weightless Fluke sinks slowly on the pause, producing a gliding, dying baitfish action that triggers strikes from bass holding in shallow cover.
• Darter Head — Open Water Jerkbait — Thread on a 1/8–3/16 oz darter head for a subsurface jerkbait presentation in open water; work with sharp rod tip twitches and pauses; the darter head keeps the bait in the strike zone at a consistent depth while the Fluke’s body produces the darting, wounded baitfish action on each twitch.
• Scrounger Head — Schooling Bass & Surface Feeding — Thread on a scrounger head and swim or pop subsurface when bass are schooling and feeding on baitfish near the surface; the scrounger head’s wobbling action combined with the Fluke’s shimmy produces a highly effective baitfish imitation for schooling bass situations.
• Big Bass — Larger Baitfish Profile — The 5" profile is most effective when targeting big bass that are keying on larger forage; upsize from the 4" Jr to the 5" when bass are following the smaller profile but not committing, or when fishing waters with larger average baitfish size.

Why Buy the Yamamoto 4" Fat Ika?

The Yamamoto Fat Ika is the best of both worlds — the skirted profile and look of a tube bait combined with the heavier fall rate of a bulkier bait. If you've ever wanted a tube that falls faster, jigs more accurately, and has a built-in side-to-side action on the fall, the Fat Ika is your answer. Its skirted bottom mimics a tube, its grub-style body adds extra bulk, and as it falls it produces a natural side-to-side movement that's all the trigger bass need on tough days. 10 per pack, 10 proven colors.

Main Use & Benefit

A 4-inch hybrid tube-grub bait with a skirted bottom, extra body bulk, and a built-in side-to-side fall action — delivering the visual profile of a tube bait with a heavier, more controlled fall rate that allows for more accurate jigging and swimming than most standard tube baits.

Problem It Solves

Standard tube baits are light and can be difficult to control on the fall and during jigging presentations — they spin, drift, and are hard to keep on target in current or wind. The Fat Ika's extra body bulk gives it a heavier fall rate that keeps it on target, and its built-in side-to-side action on the fall means you don't need to impart action — the bait does the work.

Advantages

• ✅ Tube bait profile with heavier fall rate — more accurate jigging and swimming than standard tubes
• ✅ Built-in side-to-side fall action — triggers strikes without any angler input
• ✅ Skirted bottom — tube bait visual profile that bass key on
• ✅ Extra body bulk — more presence and a slower, more controlled fall than a standard tube
• ✅ Versatile — jig, swim, flip, pitch, drop shot
• ✅ 10 proven color options across natural and reaction shades
• ✅ 10 per pack
• ⚠️ Heavier than a standard tube — requires less added weight; best on a 4/0 hook without a jig head for most presentations

When to Choose It

Reach for the Fat Ika when you want the visual profile of a tube bait with a heavier, more controlled fall, when you need to jig or swim more accurately than a standard tube allows, or when bass are keying on the side-to-side fall action and ignoring standard tube presentations. It's the upgrade from a standard tube when you need more bulk, more control, and more action on the fall.

Best Fishing Techniques

• Jigging — rig on a 4/0 Owner Beast Hook or Gamakatsu EWG; the Beast Hook's larger gap allows the hook to come through the plastic for better hooksets, and the screw-in CPS spring holds the bait securely without tearing; jig along the bottom with short hops and let the side-to-side action work on the fall
• Swimming — swim on a steady retrieve just above the bottom or through the water column; the extra bulk and skirted bottom produce a natural, pulsing action at any retrieve speed
• Flipping & Pitching — Texas-rig on a 4/0 EWG hook and flip into docks, laydowns, and sparse cover; the built-in side-to-side action triggers strikes on the initial fall
• Drop Shot — nose-hook on a #1 or #2 hook, 12–18" above the weight; the skirted bottom and side-to-side action produce a unique, fluttering presentation in the strike zone
• Shaky Head — thread onto a 3/16–1/4 oz shaky head for a stand-up presentation; the skirted bottom flares out on the bottom for a realistic, tube-like appearance

Best Conditions

• Clear to lightly stained water where the tube profile and side-to-side action are most visible
• Docks, laydowns, and rocky structure where tube baits traditionally excel
• Deep structure (15–30ft) where the heavier fall rate gets the bait to the bottom faster than a standard tube
• Post-frontal and slow-bite days when the built-in action triggers strikes without angler input
• Year-round — especially effective in summer and fall on deep structure

Tackle Express Tips

1. Use the Owner 4/0 Beast Hook — The Beast Hook is the top pick for the Fat Ika — its larger hook gap allows the hook point to come through the plastic cleanly for better hooksets, and the screw-in CPS spring holds the bait securely without tearing out in most circumstances. A 4/0 Gamakatsu EWG is a solid alternative if you don't have the Beast Hook on hand.
2. Green Pumpkin w/ Black Flake for most situations — Green Pumpkin w/ Black Flake (#297) is your go-to in clear to lightly stained water. Switch to Black w/ Blue Flake (#021) or Black w/ Small Red Flake (#051) in dark or muddy water for maximum silhouette visibility, and use Watermelon Black Flake (#194J) in clear water with a natural bottom for a subtle, natural presentation.
3. Let the fall do the work — The Fat Ika's built-in side-to-side action is most effective on a free fall — pitch or flip to the target and let the bait fall on a semi-slack line. Don't rush the retrieve; most strikes happen on the initial fall when the side-to-side action is at its most pronounced. If you don't get bit on the fall, jig it once or twice and let it fall again before moving to the next spot.

FAQ

Q: What makes the Fat Ika different from a standard tube bait?
A: The Fat Ika has a skirted bottom like a tube, but its grub-style body adds extra bulk that gives it a heavier fall rate and more accurate jigging action than a standard tube. The built-in side-to-side fall action is the key differentiator — it triggers strikes without any angler input, making it especially effective on tough days when bass need a subtle trigger to commit.

Q: What hook works best for the Fat Ika?
A: The Owner 4/0 Beast Hook is the top recommendation — its larger gap allows the hook to come through the plastic cleanly for better hooksets, and the screw-in CPS spring holds the bait securely. A 4/0 Gamakatsu EWG is a solid alternative. Avoid hooks that are too small — the Fat Ika's extra bulk requires a larger gap for reliable hooksets.

The Savage Gear 3D Shine Glide 185 is a slow sinking erratic swimming glide bait. These baits have been deadly on a multitude of game fish from largemouth bass to musky. On a slow retrieve the bait glides from side to side. A pop of the rod tip will increase the darting action. Deadly on a twitch and stop retrieve.

We like to fish this bait slowly with a steady retrieve but there are times when we twitch the rod tip.  It washes out if its fished too quickly and we usually get bit on a slow and steady retrieve.  Another favorite method is to start twitching it as soon as it hits the surface.  A slow methodical upward pump of the rod tip while slowly turning the handle makes this bait flop back and forth on the surface.  Keeping this going can keep the bait in the strike zone longer, giving the fish an irresistible presentation.  

We fish the Savage Gear 3D Roach Shine Glide 185mm on 20lb line with a medium fast action 7'6" rod.  Try one out, we think you'll like it.

Expanding on Megabass' wildly popular Sleeper Series, the Megabass Sleeper Gill Swimbaits now offer anglers an alternative profile to target those panfish-gobbling bass. Featuring an adaptation of their signature dorsal fin weedguard, the Sleeper Gill can be cast in those cover-choked waters where other baits fear to swim while still maintaining an incredibly natural profile that will fool the most veteran fish in your water.

Just under the concealed hook, the body relies on a hollow zone that quickly compresses to convert more bites and optimize your hook-up ratios.

The amazing detail and incredible action of the Jackall Rerange Jerkbait is unmatched by any other jerkbait.  This 110 size jerkbait will dive about 4 feet while making a high pitched rolling action.  When twitched and jerked, the darting action has purpose and won't have regular movements enticing more strikes.  

Engineered with an advanced “TG Zero Friction” weight transfer system, the Jackall Rerange Jerkbait features a fluororesin covered tungsten weight, which slides from end-to-end to extend casting distance and enhance action.

Unmatched in outright attraction, the Jackall Rerange Jerkbait produces an erratic, yet balanced lurch that lets bass know that there’s an easy meal within reach. Offered in a number of highly detailed colors, the Jackall Rerange Jerkbait is built with advanced internals that produce superior performance.

The advanced, zero friction weight transfer system allows anglers to cast farther and bring the fish to the bait for an easy catch. With realistic paint jobs and the right action, the Jackall Rerange Jerkbait is an excellent choice for anglers looking to score big.

The Daiwa Salt Pro SP Minnow Floating Jerkbait has earned its reputation as one of the most versatile and effective saltwater hard baits available for inshore and nearshore species. Designed for a fast, ripping-style retrieve, the Salt Pro SP Minnow produces an erratic side-to-side swimming action that draws predator attention and triggers reaction strikes from calico bass, yellowtail, white seabass, and a wide range of inshore saltwater species. The internal weight transfer system shifts weight rearward on the cast for maximum distance, then repositions for optimal action on the retrieve. 

Key Features

• Erratic Side-to-Side Swimming Action — Designed specifically for a fast, ripping-style retrieve that produces a wide, erratic side-to-side darting action; the unpredictable movement pattern mimics a fleeing or injured baitfish and triggers reaction strikes from predatory species that key on erratic prey movement.
• Internal Weight Transfer System — Internal weight shifts rearward during the cast for maximum casting distance; repositions forward on the retrieve for optimal swimming action and balance; allows the Salt Pro SP Minnow to be cast significantly farther than fixed-weight jerkbaits of the same size — critical for covering water on open flats and kelp edges.
• Floating (F) Action — Floating designation means the bait rises toward the surface on the pause; use the pause to change direction and depth during the retrieve, triggering strikes from fish following the bait; floating action also allows the bait to be worked over shallow structure and kelp without snagging.
• Realistic Scale Pattern & 3D Eyes — Detailed scale pattern and three-dimensional eyes provide a lifelike baitfish appearance that triggers strikes from sight-feeding predators in clear water; realistic finish complements the erratic action for a complete predator trigger package.
• Heavy-Duty Saltwater Hooks — Equipped with heavy-duty hooks rated for saltwater use; sized and rated for the sustained pressure of calico bass, yellowtail, and white seabass in structure-heavy inshore and nearshore environments.
• Two Sizes for Different Applications — 13F (5 1/8", 7/8 oz) for lighter inshore applications and matching smaller baitfish profiles; 15F (6", 1 1/9 oz) for larger presentations targeting bigger fish and matching larger forage like mackerel and grunion.

Gamakatsu Offset Shank Worm EWG Hooks are the standard for worms and creature baits.  We love the bend on these hooks and the super sharp point.

 These fishing hooks work best for thick bodied worms, craw, and creature type baits because of the extra wide gap.  An extra wide gap is defined by the distance from the point of the hook to the bottom of the curve of the shank.  EWG hooks are good for plastic baits that have a bigger body to them.  If the gap is too small, upon hook-set the point of the hook won't be able to come through the plastic to pierce the fishes mouth.  The extra gap gives the hook room to come through the plastic which exposes the hook.

 Tie one on if you haven't yet, we are confident you will be satisfied with the results.

There is perhaps no other jerkbait that is more coveted than the Megabass Vision OneTen.  The tungsten weights increase casting distance and allow for a more slender bait, reducing drag in the water when retrieved.  

The Katsuage hooks that come stock on the Vision 110 are light wire for easy penetration correct balance.  Megabass intends this bait to be fished on light line, preferably 6 to 10lb pound test.  Using light line allows the bait to reach its optimal swimming depth of four to six feet, but also enables the bait to move more freely in the water.  

Retrieved properly, the Vision 110 not only darts from side to side but it does so in an arching fashion shooting up, and then back down as you jerk your rod tip.  Additionally, as the bait is being pulled in the water it moves sideways from top to bottom giving off a color and flash, but it also has a rear movement from side to side.  Heavier line and hooks have the potential to impede action taking the bait out of its factory tuned equilibrium.
