Jackall Flat Bone Clicker

A Big Bait Classic Returns

The Jackall Flat Bone Clicker is not a brand-new lure - but it is one that has more than earned its comeback. This swimbait, which Jackall calls a jointed big bait, measures 22 cm and weighs 48 g. It has been tempting pike and large largemouth bass for years, and it will do so again. The lure combines a two-piece jointed body with a lip and a slender, elongated elastomer tail - a combination that enables one of the most effective presentations in big bait fishing: walk-the-dog action on virtually the same spot.

A Brutal Hot-Spot Trigger

What sets the Jackall Flat Bone Clicker apart is its ability to stay on the spot during a walk-the-dog retrieve. It rocks left, right, left, right with a superb action, yet you can work it so slowly that it barely moves forward. That means you can keep it dancing over a hot spot far longer than comparable lures. This makes it a brutally effective trigger at features such as overhanging bushes, weed beds, lily pads, submerged trees and jetties - exactly the kind of spots where big fish retreat from pressure, until the Flat Bone Clicker starts waggling above them and eventually provokes a savage attack. The clicker sound plays its part here too, often providing that final prompt to strike.

Equally Effective on a Straight Retrieve

The Jackall Flat Bone Clicker is also highly effective on a straight retrieve, where it produces a superb rolling action. In both the rolling retrieve and the walk-the-dog presentation, the flat body sides come into their own - they flash beautifully and make the lure even more visible to predators. The Flat Bone Clicker is floating and runs naturally at a shallow depth. You can fish it from the surface down to around 0.3 m. If you want to get deeper, simply add a clip-on weight such as the Illex John Weight and you can present it to fish holding further down. A highly effective lure that still earns its place in any big bait collection.
