PavLures Big Softy – Daiichi Hooks (Sinker & Floater)
Compact profile. Deadly wobble-fall. The 3" Big Softy is a hand-poured suspension bait built to draw reaction bites with a tight wobble on the fall and a controlled sink. Choose Sinker to hit the zone fast, or Floater for a slower drop and longer hang in the strike window—both armed with Daiichi red trebles for confident pin-ups.
Why It Crushes
- ✅ Tuned fall: Sinker runs ~1 ft/sec for precise count-downs through the column.
- ✅ Wobble-fall action: Subtle shimmy on slack line flips neutral fish into hitters.
- ✅ Choice of buoyancy: Floater version sinks slower; ideal for suspending fish and current seams.
- ✅ Daiichi hardware: Factory-rigged with sharp, 2X-tough red trebles.
- ✅ Long-cast compact: Small body, dense build = reach windblown points and slicks.
How to Fish It
- ✅ Count-down twitch: Count to depth, give two crisp twitches, then slack—watch for the tick.
- ✅ Slow roll: Crawl just above grass tips; pause to let the wobble do the work.
- ✅ Tackle: 8–12 lb fluoro or thin braid + fluoro leader on a medium/fast rod.

Important Notes
- ✅ Floater vs “True Floater”: The Floater sinks slowly with wobble; the True Floater behaves like a topwater and does not have a wobble-fall.
- ✅ Care: Avoid extreme heat and keep plastics off adhesive labels to prevent deformation.
- ✅ Cosmetics: Minor paint/lighting differences may occur.
Count it down, let it wobble, and hold on.
Rig a Big Softy for pressured fish that won’t chase a burner.
