Best ways to fish it (demo)

Swim Jig Trailer Shallow grass, slow roll
Texas Rig Pitching to cover
Ball Jig Head Dragging sand or rock
Split Shot Natural subtle glides
Link to custom color order form
Length
4.0" compact lizard profile with a straight body, curled tail loop, and four subtle kicking legs.
Best for
Smallmouth, largemouth, and walleye that are keyed on bottom forage or cruising spawning flats.
Style
Controlled movement: legs tick and the tail rolls without overpowering the presentation.
Where it shines
Shallow flats, sand-to-gravel transitions, secondary points, and slow-current river edges.
Lizard note: this profile excels when fish are nosing around bottom but ignore craws—slow it down and let it soak.

Top 3 ways we fish it

Low-speed control wins with this bait.

Texas Rig, Light Weight

A classic approach for shallow cover and flats.
  • Use a small bullet weight and keep it unpegged whenever possible.
  • Drag it slowly and pause often—legs keep working while it sits.
  • When the line tightens, reel first before setting the hook.

Carolina Rig Finesse

Cover water while keeping the bait natural.
  • Run a longer leader to let the lizard trail and glide.
  • Keep the rod low and sweep it forward instead of hopping.
  • Pause at every bottom change—bites often come after the stop.

Dragging on a Jighead

A subtle alternative when fish won’t chase.
  • Use a light ball head to keep it upright and moving naturally.
  • Drag and shake just enough to activate the legs.
  • When you feel steady pressure, lean into the hookset.
