Trace Coastal Series

The Trace 5" Saltwater is a compact, multi-jointed swimbait built to match smaller inshore forage like mullet, shad, and baitfish. Its 3-joint segmented body produces a tight, natural swimming motion that gives redfish, snook, striped bass, and other coastal predators the look of a cruising or injured baitfish without requiring an aggressive retrieve.

Fish it with a steady retrieve along grass lines, flats, docks, and current seams to let the segmented body swim naturally, or add subtle rod twitches to make the bait change direction around structure. Its responsive jointed action gives anglers control over the presentation without overpowering fish keyed on smaller forage.

The slow-sink configuration falls at 0.67 ft./sec., allowing anglers to count the bait down and keep its 5-inch profile working below the surface when fish are holding deeper in the water column. That controlled fall also makes it easy to adjust depth as conditions and fish positioning change.

Detailed 3D scales, lifelike eyes, and natural coastal finishes reinforce the baitfish profile at close range. The combination of a compact body, controlled slow sink, and responsive jointed action makes the Trace 5" Saltwater well suited for pressured inshore fish that are keyed on smaller forage.
