JR Prop bait — Standard — Watermelon Green

Propellers spin and splash — noise and surface disturbance that calling fish can home in on. This one is finished in Watermelon Green on a Prop bait — Standard body.

How to fish it

• Steady retrieve to keep the props working, or stop-and-go if they short-strike.
• Target banks, docks, and open pockets where bait is near the surface.

When it shines

Warm water and active surface periods. Match color to water: clear leans light, muddy leans dark.

Tackle notes

• Direct tie — no snap swivel (kills action). Fluorocarbon is a solid default; braid in heavy cover.

Each one starts as a blank and is hand-painted by Jeff & Ray — finished to fish, not just to sit in a box.
