INNOTAK Multi-Jointed Swimbait – 1 Pack, 5.63" Slow Sinking Perch Pattern Fishing Lure for Bass, Pike, Musky & Walleye, Freshwater & Saltwater, 2 Mustad Treble Hooks

Bass Hunter is a 5.63-inch multi-jointed swimbait in a classic perch pattern – yellow-green body with dark vertical bars, red-orange tail and a red belly spot – one of the most productive color schemes for largemouth bass, pike, musky and walleye wherever perch and sunfish are the main forage. The segmented ABS body is joined with heavy-duty flexible fabric and swims with a smooth S-shaped action on a slow retrieve, gliding on the pause like an injured baitfish. Sold as a single lure.

Key features

• Perch color for stained and weedy water – high-contrast bars and a red tail stay visible in green water and around vegetation where bass and pike ambush perch.
• Realistic S-shaped swimming action – multi-segment body with flexible fabric joints moves like a live baitfish on a straight retrieve, twitch or stop-and-go.
• New open-mouth head design – pushes water for improved underwater movement and stronger vibration that predators track from a distance.
• Long-cast weight system – built-in steel gravity balls add casting distance and a subtle rattle; the lure weighs 1.02 oz (29 g).
• 2 ultra-sharp Mustad treble hooks on strong split rings for solid hooksets.
• 3D holographic eyes and detailed scale pattern on a durable ABS body – made for freshwater and saltwater.

Target species

Largemouth bass, smallmouth bass, northern pike, musky, walleye, trout, striped bass, redfish, snook and other predators that feed on perch, sunfish and shad.

How to fish it

• Slow steady retrieve along weed edges and drop-offs – the most natural presentation.
• Twitch and pause – the lure turns and glides on the pause, triggering following fish.
• Burn and kill – a few fast turns, then stop; ideal for reaction strikes from pike and musky.
• Use a steel leader for toothy species to protect your line.

Frequently asked questions

Is Bass Hunter floating or sinking?
Slow sinking. Count it down to reach suspended fish or start the retrieve right away to fish the upper water column.

When should I choose the perch color?
In lakes and rivers with perch or sunfish as forage, in stained or green water, and in low light when a high-contrast pattern is easier for fish to track.

Does it come with a leader or box?
No – this is the single lure. The INNOTAK 3-pack includes three colors, three steel leaders and a tackle box. Other single colors: Alligator Harry, Bloody Harry (brown trout), Head Hunter (bluegill), Predator Catcher (shad) and Tricky Snake (rainbow trout).

What rod and line should I use?
A medium to medium-heavy spinning or casting rod with 12–20 lb line (or 20–30 lb braid) handles a 1 oz swimbait comfortably.
