Basstrix Paddle Tail 3.5" Swimbait

Experience the bait that started a revolution in the fishing industry. The Basstrix Paddle Tail 3.5" is the original hollow-body swimbait, meticulously designed to provide a level of realism that solid-body plastics simply cannot replicate. At 3.5 inches, this bait is the perfect "match-the-hatch" size for a variety of forage, including threadfin shad, smelt, and small minnows, making it a staple for tournament anglers across the country.

The secret to its success lies in its hollow-body construction, which allows the bait to collapse easily upon a strike for superior hook-up ratios. This design, combined with the signature Basstrix paddle tail, creates a high-frequency kicking action and a subtle body roll that triggers aggressive strikes even in high-pressure or clear water conditions.

Key Features:

• Original Hollow-Body Design: Engineered to provide a lifelike feel and natural buoyancy, ensuring the bait swims perfectly at both high and low speeds.

• Signature Paddle Tail Action: Delivers a realistic, thumping vibration that mimics the movement of fleeing baitfish to call in predators from a distance.

• Hand-Painted Realism: Each bait features the iconic Basstrix multi-dimensional finish, complete with lifelike eyes and holographic scale patterns for unmatched visual appeal.

• Versatile Rigging Options: While it excels on a weighted swimbait hook for a weedless presentation, it is equally effective on a ball-head jig or as a premium trailer for umbrella rigs and vibrating jigs.

• Proven Multi-Species Appeal: A powerhouse for targeting largemouth, smallmouth, and spotted bass, as well as various saltwater species like Calico Bass.
