Strike King Rage Swimmer
Description and Application: Designed to provoke an immediate reaction, the Strike King Rage Swimmer looks great out of the water, and even better below the surface. Its sleek nose cone and softly ribbed body closely replicate the contours found in nature, and its thin, pancake-like tail pumps out frantic vibrations at any speed. Extremely versatile, Strike King's Rage Swimmer softbait offers an enticing swim—whether pinned to a jig, nose-hooked on a drop-shot rig, or trailed behind a spinnerbait. Targeted for bass, but deadly on all other predators as well! It’s available in four sizes: 2 3/4-, 3 1/4-, 3 3/4-, 4 3/4- and 5 3/4-inch models and 17 forage mimicking colors.
Staff Perspective: Easily one of the most popular swimbait profiles out there, and for good reason, the Rage Tail works under countless scenarios, riggings and water types—north to south. This bait works for both large- and smallmouth bass, walleyes, white bass, even big crappies—just rig it up and work it where the fish swim. I like the functionality of the tail as it’ll work wonders at slow and fast retrieves and everything in between.
Cost: $6.99
