The Hybrid Hunter features a fat-bodied, flat-sided shape with a unique “L-Shaped” 90-degree bill. Combined, these features create a hard thumping, exaggerated hunting action with an extremely loud rattle that causes fish to strike with a vengeance. Thanks to the shape of the body, the unique lip design and the buoyancy of the bait, Strike King pro staffer Todd Castledine said that it is more than a crankbait. “There’s no other bait like it on the market,” said Castledine. “It can work effectively in situations many anglers throw a lipless crankbait, a jerkbait, a crankbait or a swimbait.” The Hybrid Hunter baits are designed to be fished on heavy line and perform best in the 1 to 5-foot of water range.

Literally caught a bass on the 2nd cast
Great bait for running over shallow weeds, stumps, and lay-downs. I admit I’m new to shallow running square-bill style crank baits. Right after I received this HH jr. I fished a new lake that had a ton of shallow weeds. I started out throwing a weightless fluke but didn’t see any action. I switched to the HH jr. and the 2nd cast I got bit.I’ve found the HH jr. to be a “situational” bait meaning it needs to be bouncing off of something. The HH jr. needs to be hitting wood, stumps, or ripping through weeds in order for it to draw a strike. If the weeds are too deep and it doesn’t “brush” the weeds I would not get bit.So if your fishing cover in the 2-3ft depth range then this just might be the ticket. Imo it’s certainly worth having in your arsenal.

Another solid from Strike King
Caught several decent bass shallow running this guy. Definitely fishes grass and timber better than most cranks. Same great options as the KVD 1.5s but a little more weedless.

They Catch Fish
This Pike seemed to like it; I caught it with the âSmoothâ color. I get the JRS model (dives 1-3ft), and they stay out of the grass/weeds pretty well.

I threw my bait but worked well before that.
Good lure. Big but good.
