Give Bass a Different Soft-Plastic Profile to React To
When bass have seen the same worms, craws, and conventional creature baits all day, changing the profile can give them a different presentation to investigate. The Whack Em Urchin Soft Plastic Bass Bait surrounds the body with fine, tapered appendages, creating 360° movement that can be fished subtly or worked more aggressively across several proven bass-rigging styles.

Real-World Performance
Use the Urchin when you want to show bass something outside the usual worm or craw profile. Dead-stick or lightly work it on a drop shot when a subtle presentation makes sense, fish it weightless or wacky rigged, or move to flipping and pitching around cover. The radial appendages keep the bait's distinctive profile working across those different presentations.
Put a Different Look in Your Bass Soft-Plastic Rotation
Keep the Urchin available for the times you want to change profile and presentation without being committed to one rigging style.
