It is built on an EX heavy wire gauge, so the shank resists opening when you clamp down and drag the fish out of a hole rather than playing it. The finish is a high corrosion-resistant tin plating over a solid silver base, chosen for life expectancy in salt. Decoy positions it for all saltwater soft-plastic targets, from shore casting over breakwater rubble to offshore reef and wreck.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEX heavy wire gauge built to resist bending under heavy drag and hard lifting\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOffset shank with a worm keeper for weedless Texas and free rig presentations\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHigh corrosion-resistant tin plating for extended life in salt water\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSolid silver base construction under the plating\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWide gap that keeps the point clear on thick-bodied creature and craw baits\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRated by Decoy for shore and offshore rockfish and flatfish work\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow To Rig It\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTexas rig (weedless)\u003c\/strong\u003e — Push the point 5 mm into the worm's nose, out through the belly, slide the bait up over the eye, rotate the hook 180 degrees, then re-enter through the back and bury the tip just under the plastic.
