Trout Lures

Hookup Baits Small Jig gives a whole new meaning to a "Mini Jig", these have an action like now other.  With a spiral action on the fall and an erratic dart action with a pop of the rod tip. Great to fool any stocker trout and subtle enough to entices the big natural browns.

There are many ways to fish the hookup bait but casting it out and letting it fall on a tight line will pendulum it down in an arc.  This can be very effective since it allows the bait to swim as it falls.  This is effective when fish are suspended in the column and not on the top or bottom.

If fish are on the bottom, we like to let it sink to the bottom and pop it off the bottom and then allowing it to sink back down.  Continue this retrieve all the way back to the boat or shore.

If they are in the upper part of the column, cast and start retrieving soon after the lure hits the surface.  Most of the time a slow and steady retrieve works best but you can also burn it on the surface for very active surface feeding fish.

Tie a Hookup Bait on and see what method works best for you.  The bottom line is these baits get bit on salt and fresh water fish. 

There is no scent on this size Hookup Bait.

Elevate your finesse fishing with the Z-Man Chatterbait Flashback Mini, a deadly, compact bladed jig designed to trigger aggressive strikes from a wide variety of species. By combining a downsized version of the patented hex-shaped ChatterBlade with a hand-painted, holographic minnow body, Z-Man has created a unique bait that excels in clear water and heavily pressured fisheries.

Unlike standard bladed jigs, the Flashback Mini features a skirtless design, allowing it to slip through the water with a more subtle, streamlined approach. Its signature direct head-to-blade connection ensures the bait starts thumping and vibrating the moment you begin your retrieve, delivering an exaggerated side-to-side hunting action that fish find irresistible.

Key Features:

• Patented ChatterBait Design: Features the famous direct-to-head blade connection for instant vibration and a hard-hitting side-to-side shimmy.

• Holographic Flash: The hand-painted minnow body is infused with multi-hue holographic foil, creating a realistic flash that mimics high-protein forage.

• Skirtless Finesse Profile: Offers a more subtle and natural presentation than full-sized jigs, making it ideal for wary trout, panfish, and pond bass.

• Multi-Species Dominance: A highly versatile tool for targeting crappie, bluegill, perch, trout, and bass in both fresh and brackish water.

• Superior Durability: Built to withstand dozens of catches, with some anglers reporting over 100 fish on a single rig before needing a replacement.

• Complete Package: Each pack comes pre-rigged with one minnow body and includes one additional unrigged curly tail body for versatile presentation options.

• Ultra-Light Performance: Available in 1/16 and 1/8 ounce weights, perfect for ultra-light tackle and small bodies of water.

The SPRO Phat Fly Hair Jig 2PK gives float-and-fly fishing a compact, easy-to-control presentation for bass, crappie, panfish, and trout. Fish it beneath a bobber, with a split shot, or fly lined on light 4- or 6-pound line. You can swim it with a steady retrieve or make it rise and fall with the rod tip, so one small jig covers several finesse presentations.

Each package includes two Phat Fly hair jigs. Choose from 1/16 oz and 1/8 oz sizes in five color patterns to match the depth, pace, and profile you want to show the fish.

Why This Little Jig Gets Invited Along

The Phat Fly is built for anglers who want a small lure that can be presented at a controlled depth or worked through the water column. Its compact hair-jig profile is equally at home under a float, ahead of a small split shot, or on a light line with no added weight.

When a Small Profile Needs More Life

A tiny jig can be difficult to keep in the strike zone if it only moves one way. The Phat Fly gives you multiple ways to change the presentation: a straight wind for steady movement, a bobber for depth control, or a lift-and-drop retrieve that sends the jig up 12–24 inches before it falls back through the water.

Built for Finesse Presentations

• Float-and-fly fishing for bass, crappie, panfish, and trout
• Bobber rigs when you want to suspend the jig at a chosen depth
• Split-shot presentations when you want a little extra weight
• Fly-line fishing on light 4- or 6-pound line
• Straight-wind retrieves for steady movement
• Lift-and-drop retrieves with a 12–24 inch rod-tip lift

The Right Pick If...

• You want one small jig that works with a float, split shot, or no added weight.
• You fish light line and need a compact presentation for multiple freshwater species.
• You like changing the lure's depth and cadence instead of committing to one retrieve.
• You want a two-jig pack with bass, bluegill, shad, ghost, and chartreuse-inspired color options.

What It Does Best, and When to Choose Something Else

The Phat Fly shines when finesse, depth control, and a subtle moving target matter more than maximum casting distance or heavy bottom contact. Its 1/16 oz and 1/8 oz sizes are made for light-tackle presentations. If you need a lure for heavy cover, deep fast current, or a power-fishing retrieve, choose a heavier setup instead.

How to Fish It

For a float-and-fly presentation, suspend the jig beneath a bobber and adjust the depth until the bait is traveling where fish are holding. Add a split shot when you need the jig to get down more quickly, or fly line it on 4- or 6-pound line for a clean, natural fall.

Start with a steady retrieve when fish are willing to chase. When they need a slower presentation, raise the rod tip quickly 12–24 inches and let the jig fall back down before repeating the motion. The combination of lift, pause, and fall gives you an easy way to vary the cadence without changing lures.

Best Conditions

Reach for the Phat Fly when you want to keep a small hair jig suspended, moving lightly through the water, or falling on light line. Use 1/16 oz for the most delicate presentation and 1/8 oz when you want a little more weight for depth control or a quicker fall. Let the target species, depth, and desired retrieve determine the color and size.

Color and Size Guide

• 1/16 oz: The lighter choice for a delicate float, fly-line, or slow-fall presentation.
• 1/8 oz: Adds weight when you want to reach depth or make the lift-and-drop cadence more pronounced.
• Baby Bass: A natural bass-inspired option in the available lineup.
• Blue Gill: A bluegill-pattern choice for a familiar freshwater profile.

• Chartreuse Ghost: A brighter option when you want more visual contrast.
• Grey Ghost: A subdued ghost-color alternative.

Key Features

• Hair jig profile: Compact presentation for freshwater finesse fishing.
• Two sizes: Available in 1/16 oz and 1/8 oz.
• Five color patterns: Baby Bass, Blue Gill, Blue Shad, Chartreuse Ghost, and Grey Ghost.
• Multiple rigging options: Fish it with a bobber, split shot, or fly lined.
• Light-line friendly: Designed for 4- or 6-pound line presentations.
• Two per pack: Each package includes 2 jigs.

Models & Specs

Every model below is sold as a 2-pack of SPRO Phat Fly Hair Jigs.

Tackle Express Tips

• Set the bobber depth first, then change retrieve speed before changing colors. The Phat Fly is designed to let you control both depth and cadence.
• On a lift-and-drop retrieve, lift the rod tip 12–24 inches and let the jig fall all the way back before repeating the motion.
• Keep 4- or 6-pound line in mind when building the rig. The light line keeps this small presentation working as intended.

FAQ

What species can I catch with the SPRO Phat Fly Hair Jig?
It is suited to bass, crappie, panfish, and trout, especially when a compact freshwater presentation is the right fit.

Can I fish the Phat Fly under a bobber?
Yes. It was designed for float-and-fly fishing and can also be used with a split shot or fly lined on 4- or 6-pound line.

What is the best retrieve?
Start with a straight wind, then try a lift-and-drop retrieve. Raising the rod tip 12–24 inches and letting the jig fall back down gives you a simple way to add height and pause to the presentation.

Complete the Setup

Build a light-tackle system around the Phenix Elixir Series Ultralight Spinning Rods, or add a compact alternative such as the Lead Masters Mini Tube Jigs. For another small-profile option, compare the Phat Fly with the Basstrix Mini Trix 1.5-inch Soft Plastic Minnow.

Pick the size that matches your depth, choose a color that fits the forage or visibility you want, and let the Phat Fly's light presentation do the searching.

Berkley PowerBait Atomic Teasers are pre-rigged mini jigs for trout, crappie, and other panfish. The teaser combines a tentacled tube profile with a worm-like tail for subtle movement on a slow retrieve or beneath a float.

Check your selected option: This listing also includes variants explicitly labeled “no tail.” Those options do not have the extended teaser tail. Choose by both the weight and the complete variant name.

Why choose an Atomic Teaser?

• Pre-rigged convenience: Start with a ready-to-fish presentation instead of matching a separate tube and jighead.
• PowerBait formula: Berkley's scent and flavor formula is built into the bait.
• Subtle movement: Cut tentacles and the teaser tail suit small movements and pauses.

Choose your weight and style

These are presentation guidelines, not fixed depth ratings. Line diameter, retrieve speed, and current affect how the jig fishes. Compare the selected weight and color before adding to cart. A light trout rod and small spinning reel help present these lightweight jigs.

3 Tackle Express Tips

1. Start with the shop's light-line approach. Our existing setup recommendation is 2–4 lb line, tied directly to the jig or used as a leader. Increase line strength when cover or larger fish require it; check frequently for abrasion.
2. Use a float to control depth. Start with roughly 2–3 feet between float and jig where the water depth allows, then adjust to keep the bait near the fish and above bottom obstructions. Use a float that can support the selected jig weight.
3. Slow the retrieve before adding more action. Let the jig sink briefly, then retrieve slowly with occasional pauses. Watch the line or float for changes and lift smoothly into the fish rather than using an abrupt, heavy hookset on light line.

Frequently asked questions

Are Atomic Teasers pre-rigged?

Yes. Berkley describes Atomic Teasers as pre-rigged and ready to fish. You still need your rod, reel, line, and a float if using a float presentation.

Do all options have a worm-like tail?

No. This product listing includes options marked “no tail.” Read the complete option name to choose the intended profile.

Which weight should I choose?

Try 1/32 oz when a light presentation is manageable. Step up to 1/16 oz if you need additional casting weight or better control. Neither weight has one universal fishing depth.

Can I fish these under a bobber?

Yes. Set the float-to-jig distance for the water depth and where fish are holding. Small movements and pauses can help keep the presentation in one area.

The Owner Cultiva Mira Shad is a 2" forage-size suspending crankbait that consistently outfishes larger presentations when fish are locked on small baitfish. With Cultiva's exclusive Living Eyes, chattering rattles, and a transparent holographic finish that throws flash from every angle, it looks alive in the water — and it fishes just as lively. Deadly on trout, bass, and walleye from the moment you tie it on.

Two Inches of Trouble

Don't let the size fool you. At 1/7 oz and 2", the Mira Shad matches the fry and small shad profile that trout and pressured bass key on when nothing else is working. It suspends neutrally at 4–5 ft on the pause, which means it sits right in the feeding lane and won't move until you tell it to. Two #10 Owner Stinger-36 Super Needle Point trebles are factory-rigged and sharp enough to stick on the lightest touch.

When Big Baits Get Ignored

On heavily pressured water — stocked trout lakes, clear reservoirs, tournament-fished bass fisheries — fish get educated fast. They've seen 3" and 4" jerkbaits all season. The Mira Shad's forage-sized profile slips under their guard. Combined with the chattering rattle and holographic flash, it triggers reaction strikes even from fish that have shut down on standard presentations.

What Sets It Apart

• Cultiva Living Eyes — High-contrast, realistic eyes add a focal point that draws strikes from reactive fish
• Transparent Holographic Finish — Reflects light from multiple angles; mimics the iridescent flank of a small shad or fry
• Chattering Rattles — Internal sound chamber calls fish in from distance, especially effective in stained water
• Neutral Suspension — Holds at 4–5 ft on the pause; doesn't rise or sink out of the strike zone
• Owner Stinger-36 Trebles — Two #10 Super Needle Point hooks; razor-sharp right out of the package
• Forage-Size Profile — 2" matches fry, small shad, and juvenile baitfish that pressured fish prefer

The Right Pick If…

• Fish are ignoring larger jerkbaits or crankbaits
• You're fishing stocked trout lakes or clear reservoirs with heavy pressure
• You need to match a small shad, fry, or juvenile baitfish hatch
• You want one bait that works both on a cast-and-retrieve and behind a slow troll
• Walleye or bass are suspending at 4–5 ft and need a finesse presentation

Best Fishing Techniques

• Jerk-pause — Two quick twitches, pause 3–5 seconds; the suspend does the work on neutral fish
• Slow troll — 1–2 mph behind a kayak or electric motor; dives to 4–5 ft and tracks true
• Cast and steady retrieve — Works as a shallow crankbait when fish are actively feeding
• Deadstick pause — In cold water, extend the pause to 10+ seconds; motionless suspension triggers lockjaw trout and bass

Best Conditions

• Clear water where flash and detail trigger strikes at range
• Cold water (fall through spring) when fish need a smaller, slower target
• Stocked trout fisheries where fish are conditioned to small forage
• Early morning and evening when fish move shallow to the 4–5 ft range

Best For

• Rainbow & Brown Trout (lakes, reservoirs, tailwaters)
• Largemouth & Smallmouth Bass (finesse presentations)
• Walleye (slow troll and jerk-pause)
• Crappie and Panfish (finesse jigging retrieve)
• Any situation requiring a forage-size suspending presentation

Models & Specs

Specs are loaded dynamically from product metafields. Mira Shad: 2" length, 1/7 oz, suspending, dives 4–5 ft, two #10 Stinger-36 trebles. Available colors: Flame, Pink Passion, Shiner, Baby Bass, Gold Shiner, Brown Trout, Black Pearl.

Tackle Express Tips

• Use light line. 4–6 lb fluorocarbon is the sweet spot — it lets the bait suspend true, dive to full depth, and stays nearly invisible. Heavy line kills the action and floats the bait out of the zone.
• Try it for trout behind a kayak. A slow 1–1.5 mph troll with the Mira Shad in Brown Trout or Shiner colors over weed edges is devastatingly effective on planted trout in clear lakes.
• Slow the pause down when it's cold. Below 50°F, count to 10 after each twitch. Trout and bass in cold water need the bait to sit still longer before they commit — most anglers don't wait long enough.

FAQ

Q: Is this the same as the Rip'n Minnow 65?
A: No — the Mira Shad is smaller (2" vs. 2.5") and lighter (1/7 oz vs. 1/4 oz), and it's a more finesse-oriented profile. Both suspend, but the Mira Shad is built specifically to match fry and small shad, making it a better choice when fish are keyed on very small forage.

Q: Can I use this for walleye?
A: Absolutely. The Mira Shad is an excellent slow-troll walleye lure. Run it at 1–2 mph behind a slow-rolling boat or kayak at 4–5 ft over weed flats and sand transitions. Brown Trout and Gold Shiner colors work particularly well.

Q: What line should I use?
A: 4–6 lb fluorocarbon. It lets the bait reach its full depth rating, maintains neutral suspension, and is practically invisible in the clear water where this bait performs best. Avoid heavy mono — it floats the nose up and kills the suspending action.

The Berkley Powerbait Floating Trout Worm is a small worm bait used for trout fishing applications. The Floating Trout Worm exhibits buoyancy which allows it to float above the bottom suspending directly in the strike zone for big trout.

The Floating Trout Worm has a natural profile with colors that catch the eye of roaming trout. The slightest movement or current activates this baits awesome action.

The SPRO Swimbait 8" is one of the most productive, longest-lasting swimbaits on the market. Its action, color, and build quality set it apart from baits that look similar but don't hold up or swim the same once they hit the water.

Why a Straight Retrieve Leaves Bites on the Table

Big, wary fish often follow a swimbait without committing when it just swims in a straight line. Bill Siemantel's technique for this bait is a directional change: give it a quick jerk before starting your retrieve, then one or two more sharp jerks mid-cast and near the end. Each jerk snaps the bait a full 180 degrees, which is often exactly what turns a follow into a strike.

Built to Match the Forage

Available in floating, slow sinking, and fast fall models, you can match the bait's fall rate to the depth and mood of the fish, and the color range is built to mirror the natural forage most game fish key in on, from baitfish patterns to trout and carp profiles.

The Right Pick If...

You're targeting big largemouth bass, striper, or other large predators in waters where trophy-sized forage like trout or carp patrol, and you want a swimbait durable enough to fish hard, season after season.

Best Techniques and Conditions

Use the floating model for working over cover and shallow flats, and the slow sink model when you need to get the bait down to suspended or deeper-holding fish. Works best around structure and open water where big fish ambush large forage, and responds especially well to the jerk-and-pause directional change technique.

Best For

• Trophy-class largemouth bass and striper keyed on large forage
• Matching natural baitfish, trout, and carp forage patterns
• Triggering follows into strikes with directional-change jerks
• Anglers who want a durable swimbait that holds up over a full season

Key Features

• 8-inch profile built to match trophy-sized forage
• Available in floating and slow sinking models
• Responds dramatically to Bill Siemantel's directional-change jerk technique
• Durable construction that holds up to repeated big-fish strikes

Models & Specs

Tackle Express Tips

• Start every retrieve with a hard jerk before the bait moves, that initial directional change often triggers a reaction strike from fish that just watched it land.
• Use the Killer Carp pattern on waters with carp forage, and Silver Fish for more general baitfish-matching situations.
• If you need a smaller profile for the same technique, try the Spro BBZ-1 Jr. Swimbait.

FAQ

Should I choose the floater or the slow sink?
Pick the floater for working over cover and shallow flats, and the slow sink when you need the bait to reach suspended or deeper-holding fish.

What's the best way to work this bait?
Don't just cast and retrieve steadily. Jerk it hard before starting your retrieve, then add one or two more sharp jerks mid-cast to trigger directional changes that draw strikes.

Is this bait durable enough for repeated big-fish strikes?
Yes, it's built to hold up as one of the longest-lasting swimbaits in its class, season after season.

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!

The Deps Buzzjet Trout Model is a compact, high-performance topwater wakebait specifically designed for targeting trout in streams, rivers, ponds, and stillwaters. This downsized evolution of Deps' renowned Buzzjet series refines the original's noisy, disturbance-creating action into a finesse tool perfect for spooky or pressured trout that demand subtle yet irresistible surface commotion.

Building on the classic articulated body style, the Rapala Scatter Rap® Jointed swims with an irresistible, seductive action. The jointed body combined with a Scatter Lip takes action to the "Nth" degree, triggering strikes from otherwise uninterested or hesitant fish.

The undulating action created by the body style and Scatter Lip loses, then regains tracking, often the movement many fish strike.

Compact Shad Profile, Serious Trigger

When freshwater fish are feeding on small bait or ignoring larger presentations, the Duo Realis Shad 52MR gives you a compact profile with a lively, responsive action. At 52mm and 1/8 ounce, it is built to work in the shallow 2–5 foot zone while suspending on the pause and maintaining balance through a range of retrieve speeds.

Small Enough to Get Bit, Balanced Enough to Cast

The Shad 52MR uses a magnetic securing moving-weight system to help produce long casts from a small bait. Once the retrieve begins, the weight settles into the body and helps the lure stay balanced. That combination gives you a compact jerkbait that covers water efficiently without losing the controlled action fish expect from a suspending shad presentation.

The Right Pick If...

• Fish are keyed on small baitfish and larger jerkbaits are getting followed without a strike
• You need a suspending bait that works in the 2–5 foot range
• You are fishing pressured freshwater where a subtle profile gets more looks
• You want a small jerkbait that can be worked slowly, quickly, or with pauses
• You need a compact lure for shallow banks, ponds, and the upper edge of cover

How to Fish It

• Jerk and Pause: Work the bait with short rod snaps, then pause. The suspending action keeps it in front of following fish instead of pulling it immediately out of the strike zone.
• Steady Retrieve: Use a slow-to-moderate retrieve when fish want a consistent shad-like track. Vary the speed until the lure stays close to the depth where bait is holding.
• Shallow Cover: Cast past the target and bring the bait through the 2–5 foot zone with controlled pauses. Its balanced body helps you keep the presentation precise around cover.
• Wind-Assisted Casting: Make a smooth cast and let the magnetic moving weight system help the compact lure carry distance, especially when wind makes small baits difficult to place.

Where It Shines

• Clear to lightly stained freshwater with small baitfish present
• Shallow banks, ponds, and reservoirs where fish are holding in the upper water column
• Pressured water where a downsized suspending presentation is more convincing
• Spring through winter conditions when fish are selective and forage is small
• Any situation that calls for a compact shad profile and a controlled pause

Best For

• Species: Freshwater bass, trout, and other predatory fish feeding on small bait
• Techniques: Jerk-and-pause, steady retrieve, shallow cover fishing, and bank casting
• Use Cases: Small-bait presentations, pressured water, shallow structure, and finesse jerkbait fishing

Tackle Express Tips

• Do Not Rush the Pause: If fish are following the Shad 52MR, add a deliberate pause before changing lures. The suspending action gives a close follower time to commit.
• Keep It in the Upper Zone: Start with a moderate retrieve and adjust your cadence so the bait stays in the 2–5 foot range instead of racing above the fish.
• Downsize Before You Slow Down: When fish are seeing larger jerkbaits but refusing them, switch to the Shad 52MR before making your entire presentation slower. The compact profile can be the missing trigger.

FAQ

Is the Duo Realis Shad 52MR suspending?
Yes. It is designed to suspend during the pause, making it useful when fish follow a jerkbait but need more time to commit.

How deep does the Shad 52MR run?
The listed range is 2–5 feet. Control the running depth with your retrieve speed, countdown, and rod position.

When should I choose the Shad 52MR instead of a larger jerkbait?
Choose it when fish are feeding on small bait, the water is pressured, or a larger lure is getting attention without producing strikes. Its compact 52mm profile gives you a more subtle shad presentation.
