Jackall Blast Bone Jr.: The Technical Swimbait That Walks the Walk
Big bait drawing power meets finesse-level precision.
The Jackall Blast Bone Junior (developed in collaboration with Jackall) is a high-performance, single-jointed swimbait designed for anglers who need more than just a "straight retrieve" lure. While most swimbaits are limited to a linear path, the Blast Bone Jr. is a technical specialist, engineered to "Walk the Dog" both on the surface as a wake bait and just below it as a subsurface teaser.
Its signature feature is a large, durable polycarbonate lip that acts as a pivot point, allowing the lure to make sharp, aggressive turns with minimal forward travel. This means you can keep the bait in the "strike zone" longer—teasing pressured Bass or Pike out of dock stalls, laydowns, and shaded pockets. Finished with Shimano’s proprietary Scale Boost technology, this lure offers a lifelike holographic flash that fools even the wariest trophy fish in crystal-clear water.
Why It Belongs In Your Lineup:
-
Pinpoint Walking Action: The wide-lip design creates a high-pitch, side-to-side "walk" that displaces a massive amount of water for its size.
-
Scale Boost Technology: A unique holographic finish that mimics the realistic shimmer of individual fish scales, increasing its effectiveness in high-visibility conditions.
-
Single-Joint Fluidity: The robust single joint provides an erratic, "slithering" motion that mimics a disoriented or wounded baitfish.
-
Soft-Material Tail: The vertically flat, replaceable tail adds a subtle, secondary vibration that continues to move even when the lure is paused.
-
Slow-Floating Buoyancy: Perfectly weighted to hover and slowly rise during pauses, mimicking a dying fish and triggering "suspension strikes."
🎣 Pro Tip: The "Pivot-and-Pulse"
Because the Blast Bone Jr. has a very wide range of motion, it can perform a nearly 180-degree turn in place. When you reach a high-percentage target—like a specific stump or a dock piling—kill your retrieve completely. Give your rod tip two sharp, downward snaps on a slack line. The bait will pivot almost 180 degrees to "stare down" the cover. This aggressive, in-your-face movement often forces a "reaction strike" from fish that were previously just following.
