JACKALL GANTAREL JR
The Jackall Gantarel Jr. is the smaller, highly maneuverable version of the legendary Gantarel swimbait, designed to target predators keyed in on panfish. Measuring 130mm (approx. 5 inches) and weighing 1.5 oz, this slow-floating jointed swimbait is the perfect size for matching juvenile bluegill and sunfish. Its triple-jointed body produces a smooth, "S-shaped" swimming action on a steady retrieve. However, its most lethal feature is the ability to perform a 180-degree turn when twitched sharply, mimicking a startled baitfish turning to face its pursuer a move that often triggers a split-second reaction strike from following bass.
Key Features
- Triple-Jointed Construction: Provides a natural, fluid swimming motion that remains stable at both slow and fast retrieval speeds.
- 180-Degree Turning Ability: Specially balanced to pivot completely around when twitched, forcing trailing fish into a "fight or flight" response.
- Pectoral Fin Stabilizers: Features feathered pectoral fins that act as rudders, enhancing the realistic profile and adding subtle vibration.
- Swiveling Line Tie & Hook Eyes: Integrated swivels on the line tie and hook hangers prevent fish from using the lure as leverage to throw the hook during the fight.
- Bottom Eyelet for Weighting: Includes a chin eyelet that allows anglers to add a "dropshot" style weight to transition the lure from a slow-float to a slow-sink or suspending presentation.
