Stick Baits

What is a stick bait,  how do you use them, what can you catch, why are MBC lures better

Action

MB custom lures come in 5 different configurations to suit your target species and fishing style
Twitch Wide action is easy produced with minimal rod input easily the best lure for walk the dog action best for slow to med retrieve and calmer water. Excellent for keeping lure in strike zone. Best suited to softer rod tip and minimal rod action. These lures are especially good in the larger sizes 174-217 for apex predators. Works best at low-med speed.

Slider floating Has a great lazy dying fish action. Has a large variety of retrieves which work well and swims great in all but the roughest conditions. Can be worked more aggressively to carve the water surface creating more action and wide bubble trail. (Personal favorite)

PK Erratic/slow sink This lure combines the best of the suspending and twitch (erratic). This lure performs in even the roughest conditions just below the surface so the fish strike is still visible. Swims with a variety of retrieves from twitching to sweeping and straight winding. Lure has a huge amount of action for very little rod input really good for keeping lure in the strike zone. Can also be sunk (.3m per second) and slow retrieved under structure or near fish holding structure. Please note we have tuned the 174,193,222mm PK stickbaits to just float then dive and swim just below the surface.

Cast/Troll suspending. Excellent beginners stickbait is extremely easy to use in all conditions. Can be trolled upto 8 knots with a tight action plus occasional Radom twitches and darting. Which can trigger reaction bites. This lure often gets better quality fish when trolled head to head with bibbed lures. Works best at med-high speed.

​Fast sink/Long cast model. Sinks level at 1m a second with a tight wobble. Has a huge amount of action for a sinking stickbait. Can be counted down to fish deeper down for fish which aren’t hitting surface lures. This lure is ideal for sinking into bait schools and casting to fish from a distance as it casts extremely well. A must have in every stickbaiters tackle box. Can also be trolled.
