High-Impact Hard Bait with Sharp Darting Action and Irresistible Pauses for Maximum Bass Appeal.

The Live Darter's body is meticulously engineered to achieve optimal water flow dynamics, with certain sections efficiently catching water while others allow it to pass through smoothly. This results in exceptional body balance, enabling the lure to exhibit a sharp, darting action. The realistic motion mimics a small baitfish frantically trying to escape, powerfully triggering a bass's innate predatory response.

At the base of the Live Darter's tail, there's a specialized fin that prolongs the bait's hang time following each darting action. This strategic pause acts as a "feeding window" for bass that have been driven into a frenzy by the lure's erratic movement. It gives the fish a split-second opportunity to strike while still captivated by the lure, ultimately resulting in more hookups.

Excess hook movement can increase a lure's retrieval resistance, potentially compromising its intended action. The Live Darter addresses this issue brilliantly with its hook hanger feature. By semi-securing the hooks flush against the lure's body, it prevents unwanted resistance from developing. As a result, the lure can maintain its full action potential without any hindrance.

Unlike many lures that feature simple curved surfaces, the Live Darter's underside incorporates intricate concave detailing. This adds complex contours, shadows, and textures that closely resemble a living fish's appearance. The belly's sculpted look imbues the lure with a captivating sense of realism and dynamism, further enticing bass by appealing to their natural instincts.

The Live Darter excels at drawing reaction strikes from suspended bass in the middle of the water column, thanks to its swift darting action. In tough conditions such as colder water condition, when bass are less active and struggle to chase down fast-moving lures, they may have difficulty catching up. That's when the Hover-strolling technique comes in handy, allowing you to keep the lure suspended in the mid-water column to attract bites without needing fast movement.

This technique involves keeping the lure stationary at a specific depth to tempt the bass. Jackall offers the ELISE and dedicated hooks designed specifically for hover-strolling, making them valuable additions to your tackle box when targeting bass suspended in the middle depths.
