Hard Body Swimbaits

The Jackall Gantarel Jr. is a miniature edition of its larger sibling, configured to replicate a Bluegill swimbait. Its S-Motions are designed to draw strikes from bass. These motions can be initiated with a quick tweak of the rod tip, enabling the bait to complete a 180 degree turn.

This bluegill style swimbait features swiveling hook hangars and a swiveling line tie that helps reduce line twists. It also features an addition loop on the chin of the bait that allows you to add a weight to make the bait slow sink, fast sink, or even a suspending bait. Finally, the hooks are dressed with premium feathers.

The Jackall Gantarel Jr. Hard Body Swimbait measures 5 inches and weighs 1.5 ounces, designed with slow-floating buoyancy. Its dual-jointed body produces a realistic S-shaped swimming action, while the swiveling line-tie minimizes line twist. Rotating hook hangers eliminate leverage, enhancing hook sets. This swimbait can execute sharp 180-degree turns with quick rod tip movements or rapid handle turns, making it highly effective for enticing fish.

The Jackall Gantarel provides an ultra-realistic impression of Bluegill, thus aiding anglers in enticing strike action from bass. It functions as a floater, yet is capable of diving to a depth of 3ft when retrieved, courtesy of its molded, elongated pectoral fins for stabilization.

The Gantarel brings the deadly S-Motions to a Bluegill style bait. It can do a full 180 with a sharp jerk of your rod tip which will draw those vicious, reaction strikes.

The River2Sea S-Waver 200 is know for trophy bass as well as Muskie and Pike.  Anglers latched on to the S-Waver as one of their favorite lures so River2Sea made a bigger 200 size.  The S-Waver 200 is the answer to those anglers needs which is built to withstand the rigors of large game fish, from trophy bass, to Pike, Muskie and even huge striper.  The S-Waver 200 brings the famous S-Action retrieve at a reasonable price point.

The Heddon Zara Spook Top Water Bait will always work on surface feeding fish. It's just one of those baits that has the action and colors that evoke a strike. The superior balance and design allow this lure to be cast long distances and walk the dog with ease. The affordable price tag and many different sizes make this a lure all anglers should have in the box.

We like to fish this size on 8-12lb monofilament line with a soft tip rod. Don't work it too fast, sometimes a slow methodical walk the dog action will get them to bite much better than a faster retrieve. If the fish are super fired up, speed it up and then pause it for just a split second.

There is no wrong way, just make sure you try different methods of retrieve if they aren't hitting it and you know they are feeding on the surface. Sometimes going smaller to the Heddon Zara Puppy will get finicky fish to bite. Also try the medium sized Heddon Zara Spook for an average sized bait.

The all new Shimano Armajoint 190 Slow Float Flash Boost Swimbaits solve the challenges of casting a big jointed swimbait in search of trophy fish. Lure engineers leverage Shimano's proprietary Arma-Boost technology to significantly increase casting distance and accuracy by reducing unnecessary air resistance and the chances of the lure spinning during flight. As the angler casts the lure, Arma Boost technology facilitates the lure to disconnect from an internal magnet and forces the body to fold into its compact shape. Once the lure hits the water, the lure's body reengages with the magnet to create a smooth and natural swimming action.

The Shimano Armajoint 190SF is a versatile lure that can be retrieved fast or slow, enabling anglers to vary their retrieve depending on the situation. The bait will normally swim in an S-pattern, but the bait will not flare out when stopped due to the fold in its body. Anglers can slow down the receive and pause the to capitalize on the lure's natural slow-rising action. ARMAJOINT also features Shimano's proprietary FLASH BOOST technology that constantly emits a fish-attracting flash during the retrieve — even on the pause — by suspending reflective foil on micro springs to mimic the flashing behavior of an injured baitfish. Designed with purpose by leveraging innovation and technology and improving angler performance while drawing strikes from tournament-winning bass.

ROF: Slow Float

Length: 190mm (7.48in.)

Weight: 53g (1 7/8oz)

Features: 

• Arma Boost to increase a lure's casting distance by folding a jointed lure into a compact shape, reducing air resistance and minimizing the chances of the lure spinning during flight.
• Flash Boost suspends reflective foil on micro springs within the clear section of the lure body and provides an action designed to mimic the movements and flashing behavior of an injured baitfish.
• Scale Boost capitalizes on composite-pitch holograms to increase the amount and complexity of light reflected through the water.

The Shimano Gravitator 220SS Glidebait is Shimano's groundbreaking entry into the big-bass glide bait category for 2025, delivering next-level performance, unmatched casting distance, and customizable action in an affordable, high-tech package. Measuring 8 2/3 inches (220mm) and weighing 3 3/8 oz (95g), this slow-sinking glide bait is engineered to mimic large, vulnerable forage while covering water efficiently and triggering explosive strikes from trophy largemouth and smallmouth.

At the core is Shimano's innovative ARMABOOST technology — a revolutionary folding mechanism that collapses the lure's double-jointed body into a more aerodynamic profile during the cast. This slashes air resistance, boosts flight distance by up to 35%, and minimizes unwanted spinning for laser-accurate, long-distance presentations that reach distant structure, weed edges, or schooling fish without sacrificing control.

Key performance features include:

• Action Modifying Insert — A removable insert lets you dial in the action on the fly: insert it for a wider, broader glide with sweeping side-to-side sweeps ideal for open water or cold fronts; remove it for a tighter, choppier wiggle that excels in pressured scenarios or when bass want a more aggressive darting motion.
• FLASH BOOST (select colors) — Internally suspended foil creates a flashing secondary action that continues even on the pause, drawing follows into committed blows.
• SCALE BOOST (select colors) — Realistic 3D holographic scaling enhances visual appeal and imitation of real baitfish.
• Dual line tie options — Tie to the lower eye for a subsurface glide or the upper for a near-surface walk-and-pause presentation that mimics a dying shad on top.
• Premium hardware — Equipped with sticky-sharp treble hooks and additional interchangeable tails for fine-tuning action from subtle to aggressive.
• Slow-sinking design — Suspends perfectly in the strike zone, allowing long pauses that provoke reaction strikes from following or suspended bass.

This versatile glide bait shines in big-bait scenarios: slow-rolling over grass flats, working points and ledges in fall or spring, targeting post-spawn giants, or burning it for reaction bites in warmer water. Part of Shimano's complete Big Bass System, it pairs seamlessly with heavy swimbait rods, high-capacity reels, and 20-30 lb fluorocarbon or braid setups.

Available in tempting colors that imitate shad, perch, trout, and more, the Gravitator 220SS brings premium Japanese engineering and customization to glide bait fishing without the premium price tag. Whether you're new to big baits or a seasoned swimbait angler, this lure redefines what's possible — longer casts, tunable action, and big bites in one game-changing package.

Dominate the big-bass game with the Shimano Gravitator 220SS Glidebait — innovation that turns average days into trophy hunts.

The Spro KGB Chad Shad Swimbait is one of the great advances in fishing over the past several years is the development of glide baits. These oversized, single-jointed, hard-bodied fish imitators were created to mimic trout in California lakes but have morphed into replicating large bass prey across the country. The KGB Chad Shad 180 can resemble virtually any baitfish that bass feed on, such as trout, shad, perch, and other types of fish.

The Glide Bait designed by SPRO and KGB Swimbaits has been perfected with experience. Kevin Brightwell, the designer of KGB Swimbaits, has greatly enjoyed the partnership with SPRO. “It’s been a wonderful experience. It’s all been very natural with nothing forced, and we’ve been able to take a proven bait and make something new and fresh based off of that. It all started when I was sourcing hooks and they recognized who I was. After talking about glide baits and some fishing, they asked if I’d like to partner with them. Since then it’s been an awesome partnership.”

Brightwell thinks the KGB Chad Shad 180 will find a home in tackle boxes of anglers at every experience level. “The Chad Shad is one of the most popular baits in my lineup. It’s versatile enough that a beginner can garner results, or a seasoned pro can use it for that big kicker fish to finish out their limit. It delivers the performance of a hand-crafted, fine-tuned bait at an affordable price.”

• 180mm length - approximately 7"
