Meredith Jointed S-Action Swimbait – Bass Pike Perch | 71mm 10g Slow Float

The Meredith VIB03 Jointed Swimbait is a 71mm slow-floating hard lure with a jointed slant tail that produces a wide, side-to-side S-shaped swimming action on the retrieve — closely imitating the natural glide of a wounded baitfish moving through the water column. On a sharp rod twitch, the jointed tail pivots through a 240-degree turn with intense body flash, triggering reaction strikes from suspended bass and predators that are following but not committing on the steady retrieve. Body segments contact each other through the retrieve and on the twitch, producing a jointed scratch sound that adds an additional attraction cue alongside the visual S-action and body flash.

Key Features

• S-shaped swimming action — smooth, wide side-to-side glide on the retrieve closely imitates a wounded or disoriented baitfish, one of the most effective trigger presentations for bass and perch holding at mid-depth
• Jointed slant tail — 240° twitch turn — jointed tail swings through a 240-degree arc on a sharp rod twitch, producing intense body flash and an erratic snap action that provokes reaction strikes from following fish
• Jointed scratch sound — body segments contact each other during the retrieve and on twitches, producing an audible scratch sound that adds a sound attraction cue to complement the visual flash
• Slow floating / suspending — lure suspends naturally at rest and floats slowly upward on the pause, keeping the lure in the strike zone in front of wary and suspended fish without sinking away from them
• Tip-bill design — short tip bill maintains a consistent shallow swimming depth throughout the retrieve for targeting fish holding in the upper water column and around shallow structure
• Tear-resistant reinforced joints — reinforced connection parts at the body joint withstand the strong pulling force of aggressive strikes and fish runs without separation
• 3D simulated eyes — ultra-realistic 3D eyes add visual detail and close-range attraction
