Freshwater Soft Baits

The Zoom Small Salty Chunk is the trailer that made a generation of anglers give up pork chunks on the back of their jigs. It’s the perfect size to tempt any fish from plain keepers to the lunker of a lifetime and fits securely on the back of a wide range of jig styles and sizes. The Zoom Small Salty Chunk is the perfect subtle presentation to get those finicky bass to strike!

The Uncle Josh Original Pork Frog…the world’s most popular rind pattern is back! Chunky, fleshy body with a beveled face and thin flexible legs. Perfect imitator of both frogs and crawfish.

Highly effective for bass and pike. Ideal as a jig trailer! The Pork Frog measures 2.5" x 1". Each jar contains 3 pork frogs.

C3 Baits Ice Pick is another staple finesse plastics at our local lakes Castaic Lake, Pyramid Lake and Lake Piru. Not as narrow as a Shimmy on the head  it is more of a rounded profile down to a flat pin tail. 

The C3 Baits Ice Pick is also a buoyant 3 inch bait making for a very natural and light profile in the water.  Ice Picks are a bait that will catch fish all year long, with just a matter of changing the color and matching the hatch. Created with over 40 years of fishing experience at the same local lakes, John Petroski has dialed in each and every color on the water.

Every bait is hand poured/injected, packaged and delivered by the captain himself, John.  We have seen some of their most productive days on the end of a drop shot or a ball head jig. All C3 Baits are 100% handcrafted, made in the USA, here locally in Castaic, CA.

The Daiwa Yamamoto Neko Macho gives anglers unmatched performance. Combining Daiwa’s precision detailing with Yamamoto’s legendary soft plastic, the Neko Macho utilizes high-density body and a bulbous tail for a larger profile offering. Versatile enough to be fished with standard soft plastic rigs such as Texas rigs or Carolina rigs, the larger size also allows this bait to be used for heavier applications such as punching or flipping.   

Deps Sakamata Shad Heavy Weight Soft Jerkbait delivers the same unique performance as the original Sakamata Shad but loaded with salt to make it heavier and allow anglers to target deeper sections of the water column and give better castability.

It’s unique body shape and hydrodynamic profile has low water flow resistance, which makes it easy to perform a side-to-side darting action, even with the slightest twitches from the rod tip to trigger aggressive reaction strikes. The keeled fins along the head also channel water downward and force the bait upward to mimic a shad jumping on the surface to avoid predators.

The fins act as stabilizers when paused and allow the bait to fall perfectly horizontal and the heavy salt content poured into the belly of the bait creates a subtle wiggling action on the fall, similar to a soft stickbait. 

 Offered in multiple colors and sizes, the Deps Sakamata Shad Heavy Weight Soft Jerkbait is a new take on the classic soft jerkbait to give the fish a new look.  This fluke style bait is like the regular flukes but on a whole other level.

The Deps Sakamata Shad design of the body is smooth and creates low water resistance making it easy for the bait to dart side-to-side. It can be fished quickly to generate reaction bites.

The salt content varies based on the size of the bait (8inch = 5%, 6inch / 5inch = 10%, 4inch = 5%) and the material has strength and holds hooks securely, which reduces tearing and breaking.

The Keel is the secret for the unique jumping dirt action of Sakamata Shad. It allows the water to flow and creates a unique jumping action. It also acts as a rudder to create better darting action.
