Handsome hand-pour finesse plastics from Jackall!

On the shores of Lake Biwa, home of the recently confirmed 22-pound, five-ounce world record bass of Manabu Kurita, sits the headquarters of Jackall Bros. The company was founded by Seiji Kato designer of the Sammy and Pointer for Lucky Craft before he set out on his own entrepreneurial track.

Seiji brought the Flick Shake technique along with his Flick Shake worm and jighead to the United States to revolutionize wacky worm fishing here. Success with the Flick Shake prompted anglers to test the effectiveness of the Jackall hardbaits. Well, if you are a fan of Japanese tackle, you know much of the rest of the Jackall story.

But we’re about to add another chapter to the bait’s success!

Lee’s Global Tackle Connection has located two of Jackall’s finest finesse plastics – baits currently unavailable in the United States.

Jackall Lake Police Super Crosstail Shad – If you have tried the standard Crosstail Shad sold by Jackall in the U.S., you already know it as one of the best dropshot baits on the market. Now brace yourself for the Super Crosstail Shad, a realistic multi-layered, partially transparent hand-pour. The very subtle rudder on the back underside of this bait stabilizes it, projecting the profile of a live baitfish.

Jackall Lake Police Superpin-Tail — This four-inch bait will have Great Lakes smallmouth believing they are biting a native emerald shiner or related baitfish. This hand-poured finesse plastic requires little or no action on the part of the angler. The incidental movement of hand and boat will send a lifelike shiver through this supple bait. Examine the realistic eyes and awesome appearance of this bait! These baits are tough to find, but Lee’s has a limited supply available now.
