Description
The Big Hammer 5″ Swimbait is a West Coast go-to built for anglers who want a bigger profile with the same erratic, fish-triggering action the brand is known for. Its square tail generates a darting, unpredictable swim that draws reaction strikes from calico bass, halibut, lingcod, and more — even on tough days when finesse baits aren’t getting it done.
The soft yet durable plastic holds up through multiple fish on the less toothy species. Rig it with a Big Hammer jig head and fish it slow for suspended fish or let it sink deep before starting your retrieve.
