Overview
Built to suggest a fleeing baitfish, this soft-plastic trailer is aimed at bass anglers who want a compact profile with lively movement. Its ribbed body and pintail design create a slithering action that can be paired with vibrating jigs or scrounger heads, and it can also be fished weightless as a soft-plastic jerkbait. The Bruiser Flash color adds another option within Missile’s color lineup for matching different water and light conditions. Sold in a 10-pack, it offers a practical supply for anglers who like to keep a proven trailer on hand for multiple rigging styles.

Considerations & Trade-offs
- The softer plastic profile may mean the bait is more of a presentation-focused trailer than a durability-first option, especially when fished around repeated strikes or cover.
- Its action is built around a specific style of use, so anglers looking for a more subtle or stationary presentation may find the slithering and darting movement too active.
- The 3.5" size is compact, which suits baitfish imitation but may not match situations where a larger trailer profile is preferred.
- Performance depends on rigging style; it is described for vibrating jigs, scrounger heads, or weightless use, so it may be less versatile outside those applications.
