DUO Press Bait Jigger Spoon 85 - 8.5 cm

Product Highlights

The DUO Press Bait fishing lure was developed for anglers seeking the casting distance of a jig combined with the subtle action of a minnow. Its specific design allows it to travel very far on the cast while remaining stable enough to display a natural swim as soon as it hits the water.

Thanks to its compact, aerodynamic profile, this hybrid jig-minnow lure cuts through the air with minimal resistance and easily reaches normally hard-to-access areas: distant marks, offshore busts, or wind-swept shorelines. Once in the water, it delivers a tight, vibrating action perfectly suited to triggering strikes from wary or experienced predators.

The DUO Press Bait also stands out for its versatility. It performs well with fast retrieves as well as slower presentations, pauses, jerks, or pulls. This versatility makes it a true long-distance sinking lure capable of covering a large water surface quickly while remaining highly attractive.

Technical Specifications

• Hybrid design between jig and minnow to combine casting distance and refined action.


• Compact, streamlined profile enhancing aerodynamics and in-flight stability.


• Sinking lure allowing access to different water layers depending on retrieve speed.


• Internally balanced weight distribution engineered to optimize long-distance casts.


• Tight, vibrating swim action responsive to the slightest rod input.


• Robust construction suited to the repeated stresses of intensive cast-and-retrieve fishing.


• Suitable for predator fishing in saltwater and, in many situations, in freshwater.


• Compatible with various hook setups (trebles or single hooks, according to local regulations).

The DUO Press Bait's structure is designed to withstand mechanical stresses from heavy casting and fights with powerful fish. Attachment points are sized for reliable security, while the lure body features a refined finish suited to repeated long-term use.

Advantages and Key Features

The primary advantage of the DUO Press Bait is its ability to quickly reach fish-holding areas, even when they are far from the angler. Where conventional lures struggle to project, this long-distance predator lure allows optimal line control, even in strong winds.

Its behavior in the water strikes an excellent balance between attractiveness and control. On the retrieve, the lure emits tight vibrations and a subtle roll that perfectly imitate a fleeing or injured baitfish. This visual and vibratory signature makes it deadly on active fish as well as on more cautious specimens.

Another major asset is its versatility. The DUO Press Bait can be worked with steady retrieves, sawtooth retrieves, sharp pulls, or short rod twitches. This adaptability lets you adjust to current conditions: speed, target depth, fish activity level, or predator species present.

Finally, its size and density make it an excellent choice for quickly prospecting shorelines, plateaus, current seams, or surface busting activity. Whether fishing from shore, boat, or small craft, this DUO predator lure simplifies locating active fish and helps optimize time on the water.

Usage Tips

To make the most of the DUO Press Bait's capabilities, use a rod with enough action to support powerful casts and accurately transmit lure movements. A fine braided mainline paired with a leader suited to the fishing environment preserves good contact with the lure and helps detect subtle bites.

When casting, don't hesitate to use full power: the lure's profile is specifically designed to handle long, forceful casts. Once it hits the water, let it sink for a shorter or longer time depending on the layer you want to fish, then start your retrieve.

During steady retrieves, vary speed to find the cadence that triggers the most strikes. You can also alternate fast phases and marked pauses: the lure will flutter on the fall, imitating a distressed fish. Sharp pulls followed by rod relaxations accentuate this effect and turn this versatile sinking lure into a real bite trigger.

Always adapt your presentation to conditions: in clear water and with wary fish, favor softer, more regular actions; in overcast, windy conditions or when fish are highly active, increase speed and rhythm changes to provoke reflex strikes.

FAQ

Question 1: Is this lure better suited for saltwater or freshwater?

Answer: The DUO Press Bait is primarily designed for open-water fishing and long casts. It can be used in both saltwater and freshwater whenever targeting active predators and conditions allow using a sinking lure.

Question 2: Which presentation should I start with when using this lure?

Answer: For a first approach, a steady retrieve at medium speed with short pauses works in most situations. You can then vary presentations (pulls, jerks, accelerations) to fine-tune your approach based on fish activity.
