The Keitech Swing Impact Fat 3.8" is one of the most versatile soft swimbaits in the lineup and a favorite across the country. The unique squid scent, soft yet durable plastic, ribbed body, and paddle tail action make this bait effective no matter how it's rigged — use it as a trailer on a chatterbait, rig it weedless on a weighted hook, or put it on a jig head. It catches fish across all presentations.

Key Features

The Keitech Swing Impact Fat 3.8" Pro Pack bundles 5 packs of the Fat 3.8" Swing Impact into one compact 3700-size blister pack — 30 baits total. Designed to keep tails straight and fit most tackle bags and boat storage compartments, the Pro Pack offers significant savings over single packs and keeps your swimbait supply organized and ready.

The Fat Swing Impact itself takes the paddle tail swimbait to the next level. Keitech's original two-tone color injection process uses several types of salted plastics to achieve perfect balance and action at any retrieve speed. The tapered ringed body distorts the bait's image for a more natural appearance and makes it extremely weedless when Texas rigged. The center rigging line ensures correct hook placement every time.

Key Features

• 30 baits per Pro Pack — 5 packs of 6 in a single 3700-size blister
• Tail-straight storage design — fits most tackle bags and boat compartments
• Two-tone color injection — Keitech's proprietary process using salted plastics
• Tapered ringed body — natural appearance, weedless when Texas rigged
• Center rigging line — ensures correct hook placement
• Consistent action at any retrieve speed
• 4 colors available — Smallmouth Magic, Sight Flash, Tennessee Shad, Bluegill Flash

Same body as the Pickle Kick, different tail. Where the paddle tail thumps, the Booty Spin runs a spinning blade — flash and vibration instead of displacement. It's the bait you reach for when fish need to find the lure before they can decide about it.

Short version: blade-tail soft swimbait, weedless, three sizes. Pack count changes with size — check the table below before you order.

Pack Quantity by Size

Every size is the same shelf price. They are not the same quantity.

More plastic and a bigger blade cost more to make, so the price holds and the count drops. Worth knowing before you add the 7" to your cart expecting a handful of baits.

When to Fish a Blade Instead of a Paddle

A paddle tail moves water. A blade throws light and puts a higher-frequency vibration into it. Different signals, different conditions:

• Dirty or off-color water — the primary case. When fish can't see a profile from distance, flash and vibration bring them in close enough to commit.
• Low light — early, late, and overcast, where a blade catches whatever light there is.
• Pressured fish that have seen paddle tails all season. A different signal on the same body is often all it takes.
• Slow presentations — the blade keeps working at speeds where a paddle tail goes quiet, so you can crawl it and still be saying something.

When the water is clear and fish are keyed on a specific bait, go back to the paddle tail — that's the Pickle Kick.

On an Umbrella Rig

You don't need a full rig of these. The standard approach is two arms of Booty Spin mixed into a rig of paddle tails — the blades pull fish to the school, the paddle tails give them something to eat.

At two per pack, one pack of 5" covers exactly that. Run them on the bottom two arms with your heavier heads, or on the top three if you want the flash riding above the school.

Rigging It

The Booty Spin uses the same body as the corresponding Pickle Kick size, so start with the hook size you'd run on the equivalent Pickle Kick and confirm the fit before you commit a pack — the point should sit flush in the body slot, not buried and not riding proud.

Keep the head as light as your depth allows. The blade needs to turn freely, and an over-weighted head that drags the bait nose-down can foul it against the body. A Warbaits Neck Breaker Swing Head lets the bait pivot independently, which helps the blade stay clear and spinning.

Picking a Size and Color

Not every color is offered in every size. The selector above shows what's actually available in each — pick your size first, then your color.

On color: the blade is already doing the attracting, so the body works best as a silhouette. Natural tones in clear water, darker bodies in green water, solid high-contrast colors once it gets dirty.

Pro Tips from the Tackle Express Crew

• Check the blade before every cast for the first few. A blade fouled against the body is a bait doing nothing, and you won't feel the difference until you look.
• Fish it slower than a paddle tail. The blade turns at a crawl. Speed adds nothing and can make it helicopter.
• Mix, don't replace. Two arms of blade in a rig of paddle tails outperforms an all-blade rig in most conditions we see.
• Save it for the days you'd otherwise go home. This is a dirty-water and low-light problem-solver, not a clear-day default.

Common Mistakes

• Assuming every size is the same quantity. Same price, three different pack counts. The 7" is a single bait.
• Too much head weight. Drags the nose down, fouls the blade, and kills the one thing you bought the bait for.
• Burning it. Fast retrieves make the blade spin the bait rather than the bait carry the blade.
• Fishing it in clear water and blaming the bait. Clear water is paddle-tail water. Different tool.

Specifications

Kicker does not publish bait weight, blade size, or hook size for the Booty Spin. Call the shop and we'll measure the size you're considering. Colors vary by size and by production run — the selector above is the live list. Hooks and jig heads are sold separately.

What's Included

Booty Spin swimbaits in the size and color selected — three per pack in 3", two per pack in 5", one per pack in 7". Hooks, jig heads, and the umbrella rig are sold separately.

Frequently Asked Questions

How many baits come in a pack?
Three in the 3", two in the 5", one in the 7". All three sizes are the same pack price.

Why does the 7" cost the same as the 3" if it's only one bait?
More plastic and a larger blade per bait. Per bait it works out to $10.99 for the 7" against $3.66 for the 3".

What's the difference between the Booty Spin and the Pickle Kick?
Same body, different tail. The Pickle Kick has a paddle tail that moves water; the Booty Spin has a spinning blade that throws flash and vibration. Paddle tail for clear water, blade for dirty water and low light.

What hook size does it take?
Kicker doesn't publish one for this bait. The body matches the corresponding Pickle Kick size, so start there and confirm the point sits flush in the slot — or call the shop and we'll check it against a hook for you.

Can I run a full umbrella rig of Booty Spins?
You can, but two arms of blade mixed into a rig of paddle tails works better in most conditions. One pack of 5" covers exactly two arms.

Is it weedless?
Yes, when the hook point sits flush in the body slot.

Why isn't my color available in the size I want?
Not every color is produced in every size. The selector above shows the live combinations — pick your size first, then your color.

Does the blade foul on the cast?
It can if the head is too heavy for the depth or the bait is rigged crooked. Keep the head light enough that the bait rides level and check the blade is turning free before you cast.

Gear That Goes With It

• Warbaits Neck Breaker Swing Head — lets the bait pivot so the blade stays clear.
• Kicker PK-Rig Umbrella Rig — five-arm rig with quick clips.
• Kicker Pickle Kick PK-5 — the paddle-tail version, 5".
• Kicker Pickle Kick PK-3 — the paddle-tail version, 3".
• Kicker Pickle Kick PK-7 — the paddle-tail version, 7".

Buy It From People Who Fish It

We sell Southern California saltwater tackle from our shop on Soledad Canyon Road in Santa Clarita, and we fish these baits on the same water you do. Not sure whether the day calls for a blade or a paddle tail? Call us or come in — we'd rather point you at the right one than sell you both.

When the bait in the water is small, five inches of swimbait is the wrong answer. Inside harbors and bays, spotted bay bass are keyed on little stuff most of the year, and a big profile gets looked at and refused.

Short version: 3", 0.35 oz, three to five baits per pack, the  weedless on a 1/0 or 2/0 hook. The smallest bait in the Pickle Kick line, the cheapest per bait, and the only size where one pack builds one complete umbrella rig.

Where It Earns Its Keep

• Harbors and bays — the primary use. Spotted bay bass on the bottom around structure, docks, and rock walls.
• Skinny water and calm conditions, where a heavy bait lands too hard and a light one can be crawled.
• When you're getting followed but not bit. Fish tracking a bigger bait and turning off is a size problem more often than a color problem.
• Umbrella rig arms for harbor fishing — five small profiles reads like a real bait ball inside the bay. See below.
• Freshwater largemouth and smallmouth, where a 3" paddle tail is a year-round confidence size.

Rigging It

Match a 1/0 or 2/0 hook to the body — considerably smaller than what the PK-5 takes, so don't reach into that box. Run the point up through the belly so it sits flush in the slot. On a body this size, a hook that's even slightly oversized will bind the bait and kill the tail.

Keep the head light. A 1/4 oz head is the general-purpose pairing for harbor bottom work; drop to 1/8 oz in shallow calm water. The whole reason to fish a 3" bait is a slow, natural fall — too much lead and you've thrown that away.

Picking a Color

Inside harbors the water is usually working against you, so contrast matters more than pattern detail:

Pro Tips from the Tackle Express Crew

• Size down before you change color. When fish are following and refusing, the profile is usually the problem. This is the bait you drop to.
• Fish it on the bottom, slowly. Harbor spotties are a bottom-contact fish. Drag, pause, and let it sit longer than feels right.
• Don't reuse your PK-5 hooks. A 4/0 in a 3" body binds the bait and kills the action. 1/0 or 2/0.
• At five per pack, buy the color you'll fish all day. One pack covers a full umbrella rig or a full session of singles.

Common Mistakes

• Too much head weight. The slow fall is the entire advantage of a 3" bait. A heavy head throws it away.
• Oversized hook. The most common rigging error on this size, and it stops the tail dead.
• Fishing it in open water where the bait is big. This isn't the outer-island bait — that's the PK-5.
• Retrieving it like a 5" bait. Faster doesn't help. Bottom contact and pauses do.

What's Included

Five PK-3 swimbaits per pack, in the color selected. Hooks, jig heads, and the umbrella rig are sold separately. One pack rigs a complete five-arm umbrella rig.

Frequently Asked Questions

How many baits come in a pack?
Five.

What hook size does the PK-3 take?
1/0 or 2/0. Much smaller than the PK-5's 4/0–5/0 — an oversized hook binds the body and kills the tail.

How many packs do I need for a five-arm umbrella rig?
One. Five baits, five arms. It's the only Pickle Kick size where the math is exact.

PK-3 or PK-5?
PK-3 inside harbors, bays, and skinny water where the bait is small. PK-5 for open water, boiler rock, and the outer islands. If fish are following your bigger bait and refusing it, drop to the PK-3.

What jig head weight should I use?
1/4 oz for general harbor bottom work, 1/8 oz in shallow calm water. Keep it light — a slow fall is the point of this size.

Is it weedless?
Yes, when the hook point sits flush in the body slot. That's what lets it come through structure without loading up.

Can I use it in freshwater?
Yes. A 3" paddle tail is a year-round size for largemouth and smallmouth on the same slow, bottom-contact presentations.

What are the Aftco colors?
A collaboration series between Kicker and Aftco. Same body and same specs — the difference is the color pattern.

Gear That Goes With It

• Warbaits Neck Breaker Swing Head — 1/8 oz and 1/4 oz are the weights for this bait.
• Kicker PK-Rig Umbrella Rig — five-arm rig with quick clips.
• Kicker Pickle Kick PK-5 — the everyday 5" open-water size.
• Kicker Pickle Kick PK-7 — the big-profile option.
• Kicker Booty Spin — same family with a spinning blade instead of a paddle tail.

The PK-5 is the size most calico bass are eating most of the year. Five inches of paddle-tail profile — big enough to move water and get noticed over structure, small enough that a fish doesn't have to think about it.

Short version: 5", half an ounce, four baits per pack, weedless through a 4/0 or 5/0 hook. This is the workhorse in the Pickle Kick lineup and the default choice for open water, boiler rock, and umbrella rig arms.

What It Does in the Water

The body shape and tail were developed through computational fluid dynamics testing, which in practice means the tail kicks at slow speeds instead of needing to be burned to come alive. That matters over structure, where you want the bait crawling through the zone rather than racing past it.

The plastisol is on the firm side of soft. It costs you a little tail action compared to the softest baits on the shelf, and it buys you fish per bait — a calico that would shred a soft plastic in one grab tends to leave this one fishable.

Rigged on a swing head or a weighted EWG, the hook point tucks into the body slot and the bait comes through kelp stringers and rock without loading up.

Where It Earns Its Keep

• Slow-rolling boiler rock and kelp at Catalina and the outer islands — the bread-and-butter calico presentation.
• Open water over schooling bait, where the 5" profile matches most of what's swimming.
• Surf fishing on a lighter head, worked through troughs and along structure.
• Umbrella rig arms — the standard bait for a five-arm A-rig. See below.

Rigging It

Match a 4/0 or 5/0 hook to the body. Run the point up through the belly and out the top so it sits in the slot — buried too deep and you lose hookups, sitting too proud and you lose the weedless advantage.

Head weight sets the fall speed and the depth you can hold. A Warbaits Neck Breaker Swing Head in 1/2 oz is the general-purpose pairing; drop to 1/4 oz for shallow calm water, go 3/4 or 1 oz for deeper structure and current.

How many packs a five-arm umbrella rig takes

Buy the baits in one color if you want the school to read as one school. Some anglers run four matching and one odd bait as a target — both work, and two packs covers either.

Picking a Color

Color names are fun and mostly not the point. What matters is contrast against the water you're in:

Pro Tips from the Tackle Express Crew

• Slow down. The tail works at a crawl. Most anglers fish this bait faster than it wants to be fished and never see what it does.
• Keep the hook point in the slot. Buried in the plastic costs you hookups; riding proud costs you the weedless advantage. It should sit flush.
• Re-seat it after every few fish. The bait slides down the shank and starts running crooked long before it looks damaged.
• Buy two colors, not five. One natural and one dark covers most SoCal days better than a box of one-offs.

Common Mistakes

• Too much head for the depth. A heavy head drags the nose down and kills the tail. Use the lightest head that holds your zone.
• Wrong hook size. Under 4/0 and the gap won't clear the body on the hookset.
• Buying one pack for an umbrella rig. Four per pack, five arms. One pack leaves you an arm short.
• Fishing a torn bait because it still looks fine. A split at the hook slot lets the bait spin, and a spinning bait twists your line.

Specifications

Colors are listed in the selector above and change with each production run. Hooks and jig heads are sold separately.

What's Included

Four PK-5 swimbaits per pack, in the color selected. Hooks, jig heads, and the umbrella rig are sold separately. A five-arm rig takes two packs.

Frequently Asked Questions

How many baits come in a pack?
Four.

What hook size does the PK-5 take?
4/0 or 5/0. Anything smaller and the gap won't clear the body on the hookset.

What jig head weight should I use?
1/2 oz covers most calico fishing. Drop to 1/4 oz in shallow calm water; go 3/4 or 1 oz for depth and current. Use the lightest head that holds your zone.

Is it weedless?
Yes, when the hook point sits flush in the body slot. That's what lets it come through kelp and rock without loading up.

How many packs do I need for a five-arm umbrella rig?
Two. Five arms, four baits per pack — you'll finish with three spares, which you will use.

PK-3, PK-5, or PK-7 — which one?
PK-5 is the everyday size and matches what calicos eat most of the year. Drop to the PK-3 inside harbors and bays when the bait is small. Go PK-7 when you want a bigger meal and you're on a rod that can throw it.

Can I use it in freshwater?
Yes. It's a saltwater bait by design and market, but the same slow-roll presentation works on largemouth.

How long does one bait last?
Depends entirely on what eats it. The plastisol is firmer than most soft baits specifically so a fish doesn't end the bait's day in one grab, but no soft plastic is permanent — change it when the hook slot splits.

Gear That Goes With It

• Warbaits Neck Breaker Swing Head — the standard head for this bait, two per pack.
• Kicker PK-Rig Umbrella Rig — five-arm rig with quick clips.
• Kicker Pickle Kick PK-3 — harbor and bay size.
• Kicker Pickle Kick PK-7 — larger profile.
• Kicker Booty Spin — same body with a spinning blade instead of a paddle tail.

Not sure which color for the conditions you're headed into, or how many packs your setup takes? Call us or come in — we'd rather work it out at the counter than have you guess.

The PK-7 is what you throw when you want to change who shows up. Seven inches and 1.3 ounces of paddle-tail profile — it doesn't out-fish the PK-5 on numbers, and it isn't supposed to. It calls up a different class of fish.

Short version: 7", 1.3 oz, two baits per pack, weedless on an 8/0 hook. Bigger meal, heavier gear, fewer bites, better fish.

When to Size Up

The PK-5 matches what calicos eat most of the year. The PK-7 doesn't try to — it deliberately over-matches the bait in the water, and that's the point. Reasons to reach for it:

• The bait in the water is genuinely big. Full-size mackerel and larger smelt on the surface means a 5" bait is the small option, not the natural one.
• You're culling for size. A big profile filters out the small ones and pulls fish that were ignoring your other bait.
• Yellowtail are in the mix. A 7" bait is a reasonable meal for a yellow in a way a 5" isn't.
• Dirty or deep water. When visibility drops, displacement matters more than detail, and this bait moves considerably more water.

What It Takes to Fish It

This is not a light-tackle bait. A 1.3 oz bait on a 3/4 oz head is over two ounces before the fish shows up. Fish it on a rod with the backbone to load and cast that, and enough tip left to still work the bait — a light swimbait stick will fold on the cast and you'll never get the distance or the hookset.

Match an 8/0 hook to the body. Run the point up through the belly so it sits flush in the slot — buried too deep costs hookups, riding proud costs the weedless advantage. At this hook size the gap is generous, and getting it seated straight matters more than it does on the smaller baits.

The plastisol is the same firm formula as the rest of the line: slightly less tail flutter than the softest baits on the shelf, considerably more fish per bait. At two per pack, that durability is doing real work on your cost per trip.

On an Umbrella Rig

Five PK-7s is a heavy package — roughly 6.5 oz of plastic before you add heads. It builds the biggest school in the Pickle Kick lineup and it demands a rod to match.

Straight talk: a five-arm PK-7 rig is the most expensive and most demanding build in this lineup. If it's your first umbrella rig, build it with PK-5s and save this configuration for when you know the rig swims right and your rod can handle it.

Picking a Color

At this size, profile is doing most of the work and color is doing less than it does on a 5" bait. What still matters is contrast against the water:

Pro Tips from the Tackle Express Crew

• Give it a full day before you judge it. The PK-7 gets fewer bites than the PK-5 by design. Switching back after an hour of quiet is how most anglers never find out what it does.
• Slow down further than you think. A big bait moving fast reads as wrong. The tail loads up at a crawl.
• Match the head to the depth, not to the bait's size. A 1.3 oz bait doesn't automatically want a heavy head — use the lightest one that holds your zone.
• Check your rod before you buy the pack. Two ounces of bait and head on an under-gunned stick is a bad cast and a worse hookset.

Common Mistakes

• Undersizing the hook. This body takes an 8/0. A 5/0 from your PK-5 box will not clear it on the hookset.
• Fishing it on PK-5 tackle. The single most common reason this bait disappoints people.
• Throwing it when the bait in the water is small. Over-matching is a deliberate tactic, not a default. When the fish are keyed on 3" bait, size down.
• Buying two packs for an umbrella rig. Two per pack, five arms. You need three.

Specifications

What's Included

Two PK-7 swimbaits per pack, in the color selected. Hooks, jig heads, and the umbrella rig are sold separately. A five-arm rig takes three packs.

Frequently Asked Questions

How many baits come in a pack?
Two.

What hook size does the PK-7 take?
8/0. The 4/0 and 5/0 hooks that fit a PK-5 will not clear this body.

Why does a pack cost less than a pack of PK-5s?
Because it holds two baits instead of four. Per bait, the PK-7 is $8.50 against the PK-5's $4.75.

PK-5 or PK-7?
PK-5 is the everyday size and matches what calicos eat most of the year. Go PK-7 when the bait in the water is genuinely big, when you're culling for size, when yellowtail are in the mix, or when visibility is poor and you need displacement.

What rod do I need for it?
Enough backbone to load and cast two-plus ounces of bait and head, with enough tip left to work the bait and drive an 8/0 hook. A light swimbait rod will fold on the cast.

What jig head weight should I use?
Match the head to the depth you're fishing, not to the bait's size. Use the lightest head that holds your zone — too much weight drags the nose down and kills the tail.

How many packs do I need for a five-arm umbrella rig?
Three. Five arms, two baits per pack — you'll finish with one spare.

Is it weedless?
Yes, when the hook point sits flush in the body slot. That's what lets it come through kelp and rock without loading up.

Equipped with a belly slot to hide the hook, and a patented Mag Hold System to keep it in place, the big treble hooks doesn’t get in the way of  the Megabass Magdrafts natural swimming motion. Furthermore, by keeping the hook tight to the body, it hides the treble from wary fish.

Some Magdraft images shown without hooks but all come with hooks and swivel.

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 Savage Gear Pulse Tail Shiner LT 7" are great from bass to redfish, Northern pike to speckled trout, many predators rely on some blend of vision and smell to locate prey; but across the board, vibration and water displacement play a significant role in forage location. Savage Gear capitalizes on these predatory instincts with the new family of Pulse Tail soft plastic baits.

Comprising the Pulse Tail Bluegill, Pulse Tail Shiner, Pulse Tail Mullet and Pulse Tail Baitfish, this innovative lineup excels at stimulating a predator’s feeding instinct. The first three baits are designed after particular forage, while the Pulse Tail Baitfish presents a more broadly applicable form that easily resembles a wide range of freshwater and saltwater forage species. For each of these models, the split rear fin design creates a realistic pulse swimming action that mimics the surge of a fleeing forage fish.

When a finesse swimbait needs a compact, balanced jighead that you can track and control, the VMC Redline Tungsten Swimbait Heads are built for the job. High-density tungsten gives the head a compact profile and sharp bottom feel, while the clean design helps your soft plastic keep a natural look in the water.

These swimbait jig heads are especially useful for finesse presentations with forward-facing sonar. Pick the weight and hook size that match your bait, depth, and target, then make small changes as conditions shift instead of rebuilding your whole setup.

Feel the Bottom, Keep the Bait Natural

• High-density tungsten: Delivers a compact profile and improved sensitivity for a more connected feel.
• 1X-strong forged round-bend hook: Made from Vanadium steel and finished with PTFE for a smooth, dependable hook.
• Conical bait keeper: Holds soft plastics securely while allowing the bait to collapse around the keeper without throwing off its balance.
• Laser-etched weight markings: Makes each head easy to identify, even after repeated use.
• Flexible lineup: Choose from 1/8 oz through 3/4 oz and 1/0 or 3/0 hook sizes.

The Right Pick If...

You fish finesse swimbaits in freshwater, use forward-facing sonar, or want a more sensitive jighead for matching a soft plastic to a specific depth. The lighter weights suit a more subtle presentation, while the heavier options help maintain control as depth, wind, current, or presentation speed increases.

Match the Head to Your Swimbait

How to Fish It

Rig a soft swimbait straight onto the hook and keep the bait centered so it tracks naturally. Use the lightest head that still reaches the zone and maintains control. Increase weight when you need a faster fall, more depth, or better contact in wind and current. With forward-facing sonar, make small adjustments to weight and retrieve speed to keep the bait where you want it in the water column.

Tackle Express Tips

• Match the hook size to the body length and thickness of your soft swimbait. The 1/0 is a compact option, while the 3/0 gives larger profiles more room.
• Use the laser-etched marking to grab the right head quickly when several weights are rigged and ready.
• Keep lighter and heavier heads available. A weight change can make the difference between a bait that drifts past fish and one that stays in their feeding window.

FAQ

What makes these heads different from standard lead jigheads?
The tungsten construction provides a compact profile and improved sensitivity, helping you feel the presentation and bottom more clearly.

Which hook size should I choose?
Choose 1/0 for smaller, more compact soft swimbaits and 3/0 when your bait needs a longer or larger hook fit. Always center the bait so it swims straight.

Which weight is best for forward-facing sonar?
Start with the lightest weight that reaches the depth and maintains control, then move heavier when depth, wind, current, or retrieve speed requires it.

Complete the Setup

Pair these heads with a compact bait such as the Basstrix Paddle Tail 2.5-inch Swimbait or build a larger profile with Yamamoto Shad Shape Swimmer Swimbaits. Together, the right soft plastic and VMC head give you a tunable finesse swimbait setup for freshwater bass fishing.

Choose your weight, match the hook size to the bait, and let the tungsten head do the quiet work of keeping your presentation compact, balanced, and connected.
