The Jacktail
The Jacktail is a realistic Jack pike imitation Pullbait/jerkbait/straight retrieve lure that comes with an adjustable weighting system as standard. Originally designed as a slow floating pullbait alternate presentations can be achieved by changing the weight locations. Each Jacktail has 3 chambers covered with a tight fitting cap, the chambers are located under the chin, centrally and towards the rear. The lure is provided with 3 x 4.5grm balls, 9grm of weight in the lure will provide a slow float, 4.5grm fast float etc. You can customise the lure to suit the conditions on any given day, head down, horizontal or tail down. Extra weight can be added to create a sinking lure. A real ‘Marmite’ lure, to get the most out of this lure you need to have patience as it is working best when it is doing very little. The best way to describe it is that you should fish it like a Pike fly, ultra slow and subtle.
