Overview
Built for anglers who want a shallow-running jerkbait with a versatile presentation, this 4 1/2-inch, 1/2-ounce model is suited to twitching for bass as well as trolling or casting for walleyes, salmon, and lake trout. It can be worked at a steady retrieve for a lifelike swimming action, or fished with a twitch-twitch-pause cadence to create a more erratic side-to-side dart. The Northern Lights finish adds a distinct look, while the listed dive depths of about 3 feet on the crank and 10 feet on the troll help define where it fits in the water column.

Considerations & Trade-offs
- Shallow-running profile limits it to the stated dive range, with about 3 ft on the crank and 10 ft when trolled.
- At 4 1/2 inches and 1/2 ounce, it is a specialized size that may not suit every target species or presentation.
- Its action is tied to retrieve style, so anglers need to work it with a twitch-twitch-pause cadence to get the erratic side-to-side movement.
- The Northern Lights color is one finish option, which may not match every water condition or preference.
