Prohunter Béito SW Bibless Sinking Minnow
This amazing Bibless Sinking Minnow by Prohunter is the culmination of years of testing and proofing of what works in a lure. Nothing compares to it's castability, action and fish producing qualities. These bibless lures are in every way similar to the bibbed versions in construction and fish catchability, with the exception of not having a bib. These lures have a tighter wobble and less of a side to side sweep on the retrieve. Allowing for an easier and much faster retrieve due to the reduced resistance in the water. Perfect for the more aggressive and faster moving pelagics like tuna, mahi-mahi and mackerel where a faster retrieve is preferred. Previously unavailable in the western hemisphere, we are proud to be the North and South American distributor for these lures from Prohunter.
Extensively tested all over the world with all manner of fish species, this lure's superior castability has no equal. The weight distribution and size profile allows it be cast extremely well even in the stiffest wind with bait fish like swimming action and unparalleled stability. Béito's weight distribution design minimizes tumbling during casts making for long and effortless distances. Cast, countdown to where the fish are and reel. Fast or slow, with jerks or without. Tight wobble action attracts aggressive strikes. A typical retrieve scenario would be a cast, followed by a countdown to the appropriate depth, a rod down steady retrieve, mid retrieve pause with a optional countdown, resume retrieve. Vary your retrieve rate and countdown pause duration depending on species and depth of water. Most strikes will occur after the pause when retrieve resumes. We have found that most pelagics will be able to chase down a lure no matter how fast you are retrieving. Many aggressive strikes are from retrieving this lure as fast as you can. Watch the video in the video segment for a good example how it's done.
This lure works particularly well when the fish are shy later in the day when top water lures are not working as well. Starting and ending the day with this lure could be considered 'cheating' by conventional popping purists. They are very easy to work as they are very streamlined so do not create a lot of resistance in the water so are not as tiring to fish with for extended periods. We all know how exhausting working with poppers can be. Great for beginners as it builds your confidence very quickly. This lure is so versatile that you can work it like a surface iron, as a conventional stick bait or simply as a swimming minnow. It's density and high rate of sink allows you to work the deeper offshore schools of fish that you would otherwise not be able to with conventional minnow type baits. If you're still not convinced, watch the videos (link to the left of the page). We stand by this product and we are so confident in this lure that we'll give you your money back if you are not satisfied.
Béito Original 'Full Connect' through wire construction comes with superior quality saltwater extra strong VMC trebles and split rings will handle GT's, Cuberas and other tough species. They are built saltwater strong. If the fish are there, this lure will get punished severely so we do recommend getting some spare hooks and rings as the lure will often out last the hooks. While you're at it get yourself an extra lure as you'll regret it if you lose it and don't have a spare. All lures are rigged and ready to go with VMC Extra Strong Trebles and highest quality split rings.
** Note: 03-Silver Face Off has 'Lumo' paint that will be luminous when exposed to light. It also has a 'zebra' finish on one side.
