description

Now available in a snack-sized 2.4″ package, DARK SLEEPER is ready to target highly pressured waters, river systems and tough sight-fishing situations. DARK SLEEPER’s soft fin shields the top hook on both sides, camouflaging the top hook design, gently deflecting potential snags, and tricking finicky targets to hold on longer for an improved hook-up ratio. Soft fin material compresses instantly for sure hooksets, collapsing out of the way to drive metal home. DARK SLEEPER is designed for stealthy, life-like deployment as a bottom-bouncing swimbait.

Low center of gravity weight setting and bottom fins keep DARK SLEEPER upright as it moves through structure for a naturally appealing approach.

  • Supple paddle-tail design kicks into gear even at slow, crawling retrieve speeds
  • Tall top fins hide the hook point to camouflage and limit snags, yet is soft enough to absorb strikes and allow for decisive hooksets
  • Weighting and bottom fin design offer a low center of gravity for ideal action to target bottom structure
