Description
Link to custom color order form
Length
2.0" Gilley profile with a fuller bite for days you want a touch more presence.
Best for
Bigger bluegill, crappie, perch, and trout—especially when they’re feeding up and willing to track a slightly larger snack.
Style
Ribbed, high-texture body that pushes water at slow speeds, with a small tail that keeps working even on light line.
Where it shines
Docks, pencil reeds, inside turns, brush, and weed edges—anywhere panfish live tight but still hunt out a couple feet to eat.
Easy switch-up bait: when the micro stuff gets pecked at, jump to the 2.0" Gilley. It’s still finesse, just “a little more there” so fish commit instead of just nipping.

Top 3 ways we fish it

Finesse moves with a little more presence.

Dock-Pole Swim

Pitch tight, swim it out, and let it fall at the edge.
  • Rig on a 1/32–1/16 oz jighead and keep the bait straight.
  • Swim it just fast enough to feel steady pressure, then stop it at the shade line.
  • Let it pendulum down on semi-slack line—most bites happen on that fall.
A clean way to pick apart docks and pontoon corners without having to soak bait.

Hover & Shake

Hold it in place over cover and make it “breathe.”
  • Drop over brush, crib tops, or a weed pocket and stop just above it.
  • Use tiny shakes to make the ribs pulse while the bait stays nearly still.
  • Pause longer than feels right—this one shines when you give fish time.
Great when you can see fish on electronics but they don’t want to chase.

Slow-Bottom Glide

Let it touch down, then creep it like forage rooting around.
  • Use the lightest head that still reaches bottom where you’re fishing.
  • Drag a foot, stop, then lift just enough to scoot it forward.
  • Keep contact without hopping—think “creep and pause,” not “jig and jump.”
A steady producer on inside weedlines, hard-bottom spots, and creek channel edges.
Pour & profile: Ribbed, high-texture body that keeps moving at slow speeds and gives fish something to feel before they spit it.
Made for: Ultralight to light spinning setups, 2–8 lb line, and simple “one more dock” fishing that adds up.
