JR Walking bait — Slim — Natural Gold

Cigar or slim body built to walk the dog — left-right, wounded baitfish on top. This one is finished in Natural Gold on a Walking bait — Slim body.

How to fish it

• Rod tip down; twitch-twitch-pause so the body crosses side to side.
• Keep a little slack so it can walk — a tight line kills the cadence.
• After a non-committing follow on a bladed bait, slow this through the same water.

When it shines

Surface activity and days they look but won't eat a faster bait. 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.
