Freshwater Bass Soft Plastics

The Deps Bull Flat 3" is one of the hottest selling soft plastics in Japan, designed with a unique shape that imitates bluegill and other panfish with deadly realism. Unlike traditional worms or soft plastics, the Bull Flat features a spiral fall just like that of a dying bluegill, creating an irresistible presentation that bass feeding on panfish simply can't ignore.

On the retrieve, the unique segmented, wedge-tail undulates extremely naturally, giving the Bull Flat a subtle, lifelike action that drives bass crazy. The innovative body design creates realistic swimming motion that perfectly mimics a bluegill or sunfish, while the spiral fall on slack line triggers reaction strikes from bass that are keying on wounded or dying panfish.

The plastic is infused with crawfish scent and salt to ensure fish bite and hang on longer for better hookup ratios. Incredibly versatile, the Bull Flat 3" works great as a jig trailer, fished weightless, on a Texas rig, on a drop shot, and Carolina rigged. The compact 3" size is perfect for finesse presentations and when bass want a smaller bluegill profile. If you have bluegill, sunfish, or perch in your water, the Bull Flat 3" is your secret weapon for catching the giant bass that are eating them.

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.

• Scent-Infused Formula:
  Pre-loaded with Jackall’s signature scent to encourage longer holds and increased strikes, especially when finesse techniques call for minimal movement and maximum realism.

Why Buy the Yamamoto Kreature?

The Yamamoto Kreature is all business. Salt-loaded like every bait in the Yamamoto lineup, the Kreature is built for anglers who flip and pitch into heavy cover, need a big jig trailer with maximum water movement, or want a large Texas rig bait to shake in front of stubborn bass. Side flaps along the body produce extra water movement and action that drives fish wild — and the Kreature's proven fish-catching colors have been tested and approved by Yamamoto's pro staff. 10 per pack, 7 proven colors.

Main Use & Benefit

A salt-loaded creature bait with side flaps for maximum water movement — equally effective Texas-rigged for flipping and pitching into heavy cover, fished weightless on a big hook, or used as a large jig trailer that adds bulk and flapping action to any flipping or football jig.

Problem It Solves

Many creature baits either lack the water movement needed to trigger strikes in heavy cover or are too bulky to rig cleanly on a shorter shank hook. The Kreature's side flaps produce maximum water movement and action without adding excessive bulk, and its body is designed to rig cleanly on shorter shank hooks like the Owner Rig-N-Hook and Gamakatsu G-Lock for better hookset performance in heavy cover.

Advantages

• ✅ Salt-loaded formula — natural feel, fish hold on longer
• ✅ Side flaps — extra water movement and action that triggers strikes in heavy cover
• ✅ Versatile — Texas rig flipping, weightless, jig trailer, shaky head
• ✅ Pro staff tested and proven — Yamamoto tournament-proven design
• ✅ Shorter shank hook compatible — Owner Rig-N-Hook or Gamakatsu G-Lock 2/0–3/0 for best results
• ✅ 7 proven color options across natural and reaction shades
• ✅ 10 per pack
• ⚠️ Larger profile — best for power fishing and heavy cover; for finesse applications, consider a smaller creature bait

When to Choose It

Reach for the Yamamoto Kreature when you need a salt-loaded creature bait with maximum water movement for flipping and pitching into heavy cover, when you want a big jig trailer that adds bulk and flapping action to a flipping or football jig, or when you need a large Texas rig bait to shake in front of stubborn bass holding tight to structure.

Best Fishing Techniques

• Texas Rig Flipping & Pitching — rig on a 2/0–3/0 Owner Rig-N-Hook or Gamakatsu G-Lock with a 1/2–3/4 oz bullet weight; flip into docks, laydowns, brush piles, and heavy grass; the side flaps kick and flutter on the fall
• Weightless — rig on a 3/0–4/0 EWG hook and fish weightless through sparse cover and open water; the salt-loaded body produces a natural, slow fall with maximum side flap action
• Jig Trailer — pin onto a 3/8–1/2 oz flipping jig or football jig; the side flaps add water movement and action on every hop that complements the jig's movement
• Shaky Head — thread onto a 3/16–1/4 oz shaky head for a stand-up presentation on hard bottom; shake the rod tip to activate the side flaps in the strike zone
• Punching — rig on a 3/0–4/0 straight shank hook with a 1–1.5 oz tungsten punch weight for punching through matted grass

Best Conditions

• Heavy cover — docks, laydowns, brush piles, heavy grass
• Stained to murky water where extra water movement helps fish locate the bait
• Warm water (summer and early fall) when bass are active in heavy cover
• Pre-spawn and spawn when bass are holding tight to cover and structure
• Year-round as a jig trailer — the side flaps produce action in any water temperature

Tackle Express Tips

1. Use a shorter shank hook — Yamamoto's pro staff recommends the Owner Rig-N-Hook or Gamakatsu G-Lock in 2/0 or 3/0 for the best hookset performance with the Kreature. The shorter shank keeps the hook point closer to the body for faster, more solid hooksets in heavy cover — especially important when flipping into thick grass and brush where fish bite fast and let go faster.
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 Cinnamon w/ Black and Purple Flake (#221) in stained water for a natural crawfish-matching color, and use Purple w/ Emerald Flake (#213) in clear water when bass are keying on bluegill-colored forage.
3. Shake it on the bottom — One of the most effective Kreature presentations is a shaky head on hard bottom — thread it onto a 3/16 oz shaky head and shake the rod tip while keeping the bait in contact with the bottom. The side flaps activate with every shake and produce a fluttering, pulsing action that triggers strikes from bass holding tight to structure.

FAQ

Q: What hook size works best for the Yamamoto Kreature?
A: Yamamoto's pro staff recommends a shorter shank hook like the Owner Rig-N-Hook or Gamakatsu G-Lock in 2/0 or 3/0 for Texas rig flipping and pitching. The shorter shank keeps the hook point closer to the body for faster, more solid hooksets. For weightless presentations, a 3/0–4/0 EWG hook works well.

Q: What makes the Kreature different from other creature baits?
A: The Kreature's side flaps are its defining feature — they produce extra water movement and action that most creature baits can't match. Combined with Yamamoto's salt-loaded formula (which makes fish hold on longer) and the shorter shank hook compatibility, the Kreature is one of the most hookup-friendly and fish-holding creature baits in the lineup.

Q: How many come in a pack?

The Zoom Tiny Brush Hog 3" packs the proven multi-appendage action of the full-size Brush Hog into a compact 3-inch profile built for finesse presentations, pressured fish, and clear-water conditions. Fluttering arms, curly tails, and subtle legs move naturally with the slightest current or rod tip movement — producing lifelike action on the fall and during slow retrieves that triggers strikes from bass that won’t commit to a larger bait. Made from Zoom’s soft, salty plastic that bass hold on to longer. 15 per pack.

Key Features

• Compact 3" Finesse Profile — Downsized Brush Hog Action — The Tiny Brush Hog delivers the same proven multi-appendage action as the full-size Brush Hog in a 3-inch profile sized for finesse presentations; the compact size is most effective when bass are pressured, in clear water, or keying on smaller forage and won’t commit to a larger creature bait; the 3" profile also fits smaller hook gaps for finesse jig heads and light wire hooks used in finesse applications.
• Multi-Appendage Action — Fluttering Arms, Curly Tails & Subtle Legs — The fluttering arms, curly tails, and subtle legs move independently with the slightest current or rod tip movement, producing lifelike action on the fall and during slow retrieves; the multi-appendage profile displaces water from multiple directions, making the bait detectable to bass through their lateral line even in clear water where visual detection is primary.
• Salty Zoom Plastic — Natural Feel, Longer Hold — Made from Zoom’s soft, salt-impregnated plastic; the salt taste triggers a natural hold response that keeps bass on the bait longer, giving you more time to detect the subtle bites that finesse presentations produce.
• Versatile Finesse Rig Compatibility — Effective on light Texas rigs, finesse Carolina rigs, shaky heads, Ned rigs, and drop shots; the compact 3" profile fits a wide range of finesse hook sizes and jig head weights; also effective as a small jig trailer on finesse jigs.
• 15 Per Pack — Fifteen baits per pack.

Color Selection Guide

Best For

• Shaky Head & Ned Rig — Finesse Bottom Fishing — Thread the Tiny Brush Hog on a shaky head or Ned rig jig head and work slowly along the bottom; the multi-appendage action produces movement on the shake and on the fall that triggers strikes from pressured bass; most effective in clear water and post-frontal conditions when bass are finicky.
• Drop Shot — Effective on a drop shot for suspending the Tiny Brush Hog above the bottom in the strike zone; the appendages flutter naturally on the drop shot with minimal rod movement, producing action that triggers strikes from bass that are holding tight to bottom structure.
• Light Texas Rig — Finesse Heavy Cover — Rig on a light Texas rig (1/16–1/8 oz) for a slow-falling finesse presentation through light to moderate cover; the compact 3" profile punches through cover more easily than the full-size Brush Hog while still delivering the multi-appendage action.
• Pressured Lakes & Clear Water — The primary scenario where the Tiny Brush Hog outperforms the full-size version; when bass have seen every large creature bait in the lake, downsizing to the 3" Tiny Brush Hog with a finesse presentation triggers.

The Berkley Powerbait Maxscent Flat Worm is an ideal imitation of multiple baitfish species. It is designed with a flat bottom and thinned-out tail section to move through the water with a wagging motion, similar to its real-life counterpart.

The Keitech Flex Chunk Large 4.3" delivers old-school pork trailer action through new-age materials and design. Since the development of the bass jig, anglers have known that the natural action of pork trailers triggers oversized bass — but pork was messy, dried out, and difficult to store.

• Scent: Keitech's strong squid scent
• Rigging: Fine Guard or Mono Guard jig head, Guard Spin Jig trailer, or drop shot, as recommended by Keitech

Choose a presentation and color

Try a jig head when you want to work the bait near bottom, or a drop shot to position it above the sinker. Check hook fit before rigging so the body sits straight and the hook point has clearance.

Listed colors include Black, Sahara Olive Flake, Green Pumpkin Pepper, Green Pumpkin Blue, Blue Back Cinnamon, Brown Purple, Green Pumpkin Jelly, and Watermelon PP Red Flake. Begin with a forage-matching color and compare a contrasting option when needed. Use the selector for exact labels and availability.

3 Tackle Express Tips

1. Check the rig beside you. Watch the bait as you move the rod. Straighten the body if it twists or sits crooked on the hook.
2. Work the pause. Alternate a short movement with a pause. Adjust pause length before changing both your color and rig.
3. Keep track of depth. On a drop shot, set the hook-to-sinker distance for where you want the bait to sit, then adjust as bottom cover changes.

Frequently asked questions

Keitech Little Spider 3.5" is a squid-scented soft-plastic bait for anglers wanting a larger Little Spider profile on a football head or as a jig trailer. Each pack contains five 3.5-inch baits in your chosen color.

Features and specifications

• Size: 3.5 inches
• Pack quantity: 5 baits
• Material: PVC compound
• Scent: Keitech's strong squid scent
• Recommended presentations: Super Football Head, Model II Jig trailer, or drop shot

Keitech replaced the earlier rubber material with PVC to support its color patterns and squid scent. The 3.5-inch version gives you another profile to compare when the smaller Little Spider sizes do not match the presentation you want.

Choose your setup

Try a football head for a bottom-oriented presentation, or add the bait to a Model II Jig as a trailer. Lay the hook beside the body before rigging to check the exit point and hook clearance. For a drop shot, choose your hook and weight around the cover, depth, and current.

The color selector lists Scuppernong, Green Pumpkin PP Blue, Black, Green Pumpkin Pepper, Brown Purple, and Blue Back Cinnamon. Compare a forage-matching option with a darker silhouette; change one part of your presentation at a time when testing colors.

3 Tackle Express Tips

1. Check the trailer's alignment. Thread the body straight onto the hook and inspect it after a strike. A crooked or bunched-up bait can change how the rig moves.
2. Use weight to maintain control. Start with a head or sinker that lets you follow the bottom or hold your intended depth. Increase weight when drift makes the presentation difficult to track.
3. Give each movement a pause. Try short lifts rather than constant shaking, then adjust the pause length based on fish response.

Frequently asked questions

The Zoom Brush Hog 6" is one of the most trusted creature baits in bass fishing — a multi-appendage design with fluttering appendages, subtle legs, and a compact body that moves naturally on the fall and comes alive with even the slightest rod tip shake. The 6-inch size is the big-bass version, built for targeting larger fish and fishing in heavy cover where a full-profile creature bait draws strikes that smaller baits can’t. Made from Zoom’s soft, salty plastic that bass hold on to longer. 8 per pack.

Key Features

• Multi-Appendage Design — Maximum Movement & Water Displacement — The Brush Hog’s multiple fluttering appendages and subtle legs produce movement and water displacement from every angle on the fall and during the retrieve; each appendage moves independently, creating a chaotic, lifelike action that mimics a fleeing crawfish or large insect; the multi-appendage profile pushes more water than a single-tail or twin-tail creature bait, making it detectable to bass through their lateral line in both clear and stained water.
• 6" Big-Bass Profile — The 6-inch size is the larger version of the Brush Hog lineup, designed for targeting big bass that are keying on larger prey; the full 6" profile is most effective in heavy cover (matted vegetation, laydowns, dock pilings) where big bass are holding and a larger bait is needed to draw them out; also effective for punching through matted vegetation where the bulk of the 6" body carries the bait through the mat.
• Zoom Salty Plastic — Natural Feel, Longer Hold — Made from Zoom’s soft, salt-impregnated plastic; the salt taste triggers a natural hold response that keeps bass on the bait longer, giving you more time to detect the bite and set the hook through heavy cover; the soft plastic also compresses naturally on the hookset for better hook penetration.
• Versatile Rig Compatibility — Effective on Texas rigs, Carolina rigs, flipping rigs, and punching rigs; the compact body threads easily onto a wide hook and the appendages remain active regardless of rig configuration; also effective as a jig trailer on large flipping jigs for a full-profile craw presentation.
• 8 Per Pack — Eight baits per pack.

Color Selection Guide

Best For

• Texas Rig — Heavy Cover — The primary application; rig the Brush Hog 6" on a 4/0–5/0 wide gap hook with a 1/4–3/4 oz bullet weight and fish through heavy cover; the multi-appendage action on the fall triggers strikes from bass holding tight to structure.
• Flipping & Pitching — Pitch the Brush Hog 6" into heavy cover on a flipping rig; the 6" profile is large enough to draw big bass out of thick cover; use heavier weights (1/2–3/4 oz) to punch through matted vegetation.
• Carolina Rig — Open Water & Points — Effective on a Carolina rig for covering open water, points, and transition areas where bass are suspended or roaming; the multi-appendage action on a long leader produces a natural, drifting presentation that triggers strikes from bass that are not holding tight to cover.
• Jig Trailer — Thread the Brush Hog 6" on the back of a large flipping jig for a full-profile craw presentation; the appendages add bulk and action to the jig that a plain chunk trailer cannot match.

The Hideup Coike Fish Gill brings a school-inspired bluegill profile to your bass tackle box. Developed from a long-standing concept made possible by advances in manufacturing, the L model uses outward-spreading parts to suggest a school of juvenile bluegill around a central food target. The center ball's textured finish adds a realistic surface detail, making the focal point look like a natural prey item within the group.

Positioned between the Coike Full Cast and Coike 17mm in relative size, the Gill L fills the gap between those two profiles. This listing offers M and L selections with model-specific color lineups and one bait per package.

A School-Inspired Alternative to Another Worm

A conventional worm or single baitfish imitation presents one familiar shape. The Coike Fish Gill offers a different visual target: a central food item surrounded by a gathering of small fish. Reach for it when you want to explore a gill-oriented presentation around bass holding near small forage, rather than simply repeat the same profile.

The Right Pick If...

You want a deliberate, forage-focused approach instead of a fast-moving search bait. Start in clear to lightly stained water where you can observe the presentation and fish can inspect its shape. Its distinctive profile is the reason to choose it; match your rig to depth and cover rather than treating it as a one-setup solution.

What Sets the Gill Apart

• School-inspired L profile: Outward-spreading parts suggest a group of juvenile bluegill around a central prey item.
• Textured L center: A fine surface finish adds detail to the central ball.
• Intermediate L profile: Positioned between Coike 17mm and Coike Full Cast in relative size.
• M and L options: Different color lineups let you choose your model and presentation.
• Pack quantity: One bait per package.

Compare Your Model Options

Green Pumpkin, Scuppernong, Ebi Dappi and Tamaranbai Dark Shrimp are listed in both models. Other colors vary by model; use the size and color selector to choose your combination.

Give the Profile Time to Show

As a starting experiment, test short, controlled movements followed by pauses. Watch the rig beside the bank or boat first and check that the parts remain free to move. For a drop-shot trial, select a hook with adequate clearance and test the assembled rig before making a full cast. These are starting approaches to explore, not a fixed hook-size or rigging prescription.

Best for: Freshwater bass anglers exploring bluegill-oriented presentations, slow swim-and-pause retrieves, and carefully fitted finesse-rig experiments near small-forage activity.

Pick a Color With a Purpose

Green Pumpkin is a practical natural-color starting point. Try a darker Scuppernong shade when you want stronger contrast, or compare the L model's Clear Wakasagi and Squash Lemon options when a translucent or brighter look suits your approach. Change one variable at a time so you can judge the fish's response.

Tackle Express Tips

• Choose the size first. Not every color is offered in both M and L.
• Check hook clearance and movement beside you before casting; a freely moving profile matters more than an aggressive retrieve.
• Compare shorter movements and longer pauses before switching colors.

Questions Before Your First Cast

How many baits come in a package?
Both the M and L models contain one bait per package.

Are all colors offered in both models?
No. This listing has nine M combinations and eight L combinations. Green Pumpkin, Scuppernong, Ebi Dappi and Tamaranbai Dark Shrimp appear in both.

What makes the L model distinctive?
Its outward-spreading parts suggest small bluegill around a central food target, with fine texturing on the center ball.

Where does the L model fit in the Coike lineup?

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.

The Z-Man Giant TRD is a supersized 6-inch soft plastic stickbait designed to take the effective Ned Rig profile and optimize it for targeting large-caliber bass and other gamefish. While traditional Ned baits are small and subtle, the Giant TRD offers a thick, magnum profile that commands attention in deeper water or heavy cover.

Key Performance Features

• 10X Tough ElaZtech: Constructed from Z-Man’s proprietary superplastic, this bait is extremely durable and can withstand dozens of bites without needing to be replaced.

• Maximum Buoyancy: Unlike standard PVC plastics that sink, ElaZtech is naturally buoyant, allowing the Giant TRD to stand vertically off the bottom at rest.

• Salt-Impregnated Texture: Features a dimpled surface and heavy salt impregnation, providing a lifelike feel that encourages fish to hold on longer for more successful hooksets.

• Versatile Rigging: While optimized for a "Mega Ned Rig," it also excels when used for flipping, pitching, Texas rigging, Carolina rigging, and wacky rigging.

The Deps Rebound Stick 3" is a bulky stick worm designed with a simple outline to slip through weeds and cover, but with an uneven bulbous front and back end that generates an irregular and writhing action. The bulky body of the bait "rebounds" or bounces back with a strong vibration as it lands, creating a unique triggering action that bass can't resist.

Engineered with an ultra-soft material containing 30% salt content that includes crustacean ingredients fish love, the Rebound Stick delivers natural feel and taste that encourages bass to hold on longer for better hookup ratios. The innovative design features a non-salt material tip that's harder and more durable to reduce tearing, keeping the hook point in the worm longer even after multiple fish catches.

The carefully designed rib depth allows the bait to slip through grass and vegetation while the uneven front and back ends create an irregular, wiggling action that triggers strikes from both active and finicky bass. Perfect for wacky rigs, Carolina rigs, and Texas rigs, the Deps Rebound Stick 3" is a versatile finesse bait that excels in a wide range of conditions.

• Rebound Vibration: Bulky body bounces back with strong vibration when it lands
