A favorite among wade fishermen, the Fat Boy features a wide-bodied profile and suspending action which catches large fish.

The swimbait is a paddle-tail profile that has always been a reliable producer of bites. In dirty water, it creates vibration that helps fish key in on it, while in clearer water, the tail’s action mimics a baitfish to entice strikes. This bait has the perfect balance of action and wobble to highlight the flake and color characteristics. It’s best rigged on a weighted jig head or a weighted weedless hook for heavy grass situations. Some hooks we recommend are a 3/0 hook with a 1/16 to 1/8 oz weight. Some anglers also prefer a 1/4 oz weight when sight casting from elevated positions. An EWG (extra wide gap) weedless hook, like the Trokar 5/0 or Owner Beast 4/0, is also a great choice.

The fluke is a great bait for triggering a reaction bite. Its sudden, erratic movement can entice strikes when fish are finicky. Its ability to pause on the bottom allows it to stay in the strike zone longer, increasing your chances of getting bit. Rig the fluke with a weighted jig head or a weighted weedless hook. The fluke has long been known for its deadly weightless presentation on grass beds in the spring, especially for big bass during the spawn. But this bait is also just as effective in saltwater when rigged weightless. Some hooks we recommend include a jig head or a 3/0 hook with a 1/16 to 1/8 oz weight. You can also use the Owner 5/0 “rigging hook,” run through the head of the bait from the bottom and out the top.

Forward Motion - Soft Plastic Just cast & retrieve The Marker 54 Glide Shrimp is engineered to glide forward like a real shrimp. The lure performs best with gentle rod tics and as many glide motions as possible in every cast. Slower is better - let the lure move through the entire water column before another rod tic. Forward motion shrimp are relaxed and Marker 54 Glide Shrimp should move calmly through the water. Use alone or with an oval popper. To retrieve: Gentle tic... tic... tic... of the rod tip Great for Redfish, Flounder, Trout, and Snook.

Backward Motion - Soft Plastic Constant action but slow retrieve Our patented Jerk Shrimp is engineered to rise vertically even at distance. The lure stays in a pothole longer, it can hover above an oyster bed, and you can "jig" the clean water window above the grass. The backward action mimics the natural motion of a fleeing shrimp. The Jerk Shrimp is in constant motion but stays in sight of the fish longer. Your cast takes 5x longer than normal which gives the fish more time to strike. Use alone or with a cup-face popper. To retrieve: Quickly pop 3 times, let sink, repeat. Great for Redfish, Flounder, Trout, and Snook.
