About this product

Rattlebacks are Sidewinder jig head sandeels packed with features. A double-pour latex build (DUO Construction) makes them more durable while keeping Sidewinder's well-known swimming action, and a Lumi Rattle Chamber with tungsten balls sends out vibration as you retrieve.

Real salt goes into the build (Salt Trap Technology), so they taste salty to fish, and the components are top quality throughout, with Mustad hooks. Each pack holds two 4-inch, 25g lures in Rhubarb & Custard.

Sound as well as actionTungsten balls in the rattle chamber add vibration as you wind in.
Tastes salty to fishReal salt goes into the lure as it's made.
Ready to fishEach comes on a jig head with a Mustad hook.

How to use

Fishing in three steps

1Clip it on

It comes on a jig head with a hook, so attach it to your leader or a lure clip.

2Keep it moving

A steady retrieve keeps the tail swimming and the rattle working; add the odd pause or lift to vary it.

3Rinse after salt water

Rinse and dry the hook and head, then store the lures straight.

Expected more

I wanted a lure to work better, especially around the salt-water use. It needs a bit more context from the seller before I would buy again.

Useful with a note

Happy with the lure, although the packaging could be better. The colour, and shape were the parts I checked before putting it in the lure box. 🎣
