Northbar Bottledarter
A classic swimming plug, the Northbar Bottledarter even swims in place with heavy current like the Cape Cod Canal. Made with premium components like hard plastic, Wolverine split rings, and 4x VMC Trebles. This lure can be worked in a variety ways such as:
1. On those flat calm nights, the lure can be swam on the surface much like a metal lip. A painfully slow retrieve makes a nice wiggle and produces a surface
wake that is sure to entice some nice fish.
2. On open beach without much current, a slow steady retrieve works very well. Mix in a few twitches of the rod tip to really make the lure dart.
3. With a strong current, cast this lure out and just take up the slack to remain in contact with the lure as it sweeps. Ever once and a while take a full crank
on the reel while lifting your rod tip (you will feel the lure really swim). Reel down slowly while keeping tension on the line. Keep repeating those steps.
4. These lures can also be loaded with 10cc's of liquid (preferably mineral oil). This improves casting distance. The action is slightly different than unloaded, which is more of a darting action.
