This stickbait performs well in both clear and murky waters. The scent is strong and lasts longer than expected. I used it in a lake with low visibility and caught several bass. The slow fall and wiggle action are natural and realistic.

Great scent release and durable construction. I’ve used the 5 inch size in different conditions and it holds up well. The hook retention is solid and it doesn’t break easily during casting.
Sean Martin –
The MaxScent feature really stands out. I noticed fish reacting immediately after the bait was cast. The 6 inch version worked best in deeper water with a wide gap hook. Highly recommend for anglers targeting bass and panfish.
