What is it?
Strike King Tour Grade Rage Blade Swim Jig
What does it do?
The vibrating, swimming jig has a very unique blade and head design that attracts attention while keeping the hook point exposed for increased hookups.
What sets it apart?
The blade and jig head are molded into one component that causes the jig body to dance vigorously. The company’s testing indicates that the design reduces snags and increases hookup percentages by giving the blade more movement thus being out of the way when a fish eats the bait. The lure comes standard with Gamakatsu hooks and a Perfect Skirt with twin tail trailers to produce a lifelike action.
How do I use it?
The Rage Blade can work well as an alternative to spinnerbaits when the fish are short striking or following and not eating the lure. This presentation forces the angler to slow down, which keeps the bait in the strike zone longer, and may attract fish that are not as willing to chase a fast-moving horizontal presentation. It’s available in either 1/2- or 3/8-ounce sizes and 8 colors.

Editor insight:
I’ve found this bait to work very well following a cold front when bass are far less likely to feed aggressively. But, it also seems to work around submerged structure where a standard spinnerbait either can’t reach or is too fast. Work this slow near docks and riprap and hang on!
