Berkley PowerBait 5" Wacky Crawler

The Ultimate Finesse Worm

Clear water, cold water, bad weather or post spawn – bass have no shortage of reasons to quit biting. When the bites get harder and harder to come by, some anglers hang it up. When you fish for a living, quitting isn’t an option. The world’s top bass fishing professionals have revolutionized finesse fishing, making it one of the most effective ways of catching bass on tour.

 

The new Berkley PowerBait 5" Wacky Crawler gives them another go-to bait in their arsenal, with the action and wiggle that is demanded of a finesse bait plus the scent of PowerBait. When the situation calls for finesse fishing, often the bites are very subtle.

 

Fish that bite PowerBait hang on longer than they do to conventional soft plastic baits, resulting in more positive hook sets. Wacky rigged on light line and fan-casted on flats or Texas rigged and pitched around structure, the new PowerBait 5" Wacky Crawler allows anglers to slow down and fish with confidence.

 

Colors Include: Colors: Black, Chartreuse with Gold Fleck, Green Pumpkin, Junebug, Pumpkinseed, Watermelon and Watermelon Candy

 

Specifics Include:

Species: Bass, other Freshwater fish

Size: 5"

Finely detailed texture, lifelike shape

Exclusive PowerBait scent and flavor

Berkley PowerBait Sabertail Burly Bug

The new Berkley PowerBait Sabertail Burly Bug combines high-action kicking legs with a thick body that is ideal for using with the big hooks that anglers need to pull big fish from the heaviest cover.

Plus, since its PowerBait, fish will hang on longer, resulting in more positive hook sets. This new bait, with its heavy body, is easy to cast when flipping and pitching and can even be used weightless as a buzz bait. Available in six fish-catching colors, this bait works even on pressured fish and still kicks up a storm when fished on a slow Carolina rig.
