A Dead-Slow Specialized Swim Bait that Excels Particularly During Cold Water Periods and Around Obstacles
Swimming Action
1. Designed for Deliberately Slow Retrieval to Intensely Enthrall Bass, Especially Effective Around Obstacles and Banks
Deadslowler is a swimbait designed specifically for extremely slow retrieval, making it perfect for targeting bass around shores and obstacles. Traditional swimbaits often move away from the target area too quickly, preventing bass from catching up. Developed in collaboration with B.A.S.S Elite angler Kyoya Fujita and Jackall pro staff Mamoru Kagiya, the Deadslowler achieves a unique performance. Even when reeled in at a dead-slow pace, the Deadslowler's body ribs effectively grasp the water, creating a pronounced wobble, and the tail swings repeatedly even over short distances. This results in a swimbait that can meticulously entice bass, especially effective in areas around obstacles where bass tend to lurk.
3. Exceptionally Potent During Cold Water Periods When Bass Can't Chase Prey Quickly
The Deadslowler is particularly effective during cold water periods, a time when bass cannot pursue prey quickly. The Deadslowler, with its meticulously slow action, is able to present itself as an easy target, enticing bites. This is especially true in early spring, post-spawn, when large female bass are in shallow waters trying to regain strength. The voluminous presence of the Deadslowler proves to be exceptionally effective in these conditions.
4. Using Weighted Hooks for Enhanced Action During the Fall:
While primarily designed for surface or near-surface fishing with visible depths, the Deadslowler does not move its tail during free fall. However, using a 3.5g weighted hook, as demonstrated in the video, can enable a weak swimming motion even during the fall. It's crucial to choose a weighted hook with the weight positioned towards the rear, like the Zapp Piledriver Counter, to ensure a slightly head-down swimming posture, mimicking a baitfish.
5. Boost Your Success by Switching Between the Original Model for 6ft and the Full Contact for 12ft Deep Zones
December 2024 saw the introduction of the DeadSlowler Full Contact, capable of reaching one level deeper than the original model. Through the use of high-density material, the weight has increased by approximately 13% from the original model - the 4.8-inch size went from about 9/16 oz to 5/8 oz, while the 5.5-inch increased from about 3/4 oz to 7/8 oz.
While the original model excelled at targeting big bass moving into the shallows during early winter and early spring, the Full Contact version now allows you to target winter lunkers that typically hold deep around structure as water temperatures drop. As its name suggests, this bait is designed to make contact with cover, so don't hesitate to aggressively work it through underwater structure to score those trophy bass.
6. Boost Fishing Results by Alternating Between Rhythm Wave for Searching and Deadslowler for Luring Around Obstacles
In Jackall's swimbait lineup, there are several options including Rhythm Wave, Ammonite Shad, and Dunkle. When the situation is unclear, Rhythm Wave is recommended for its versatility in reel speed, suitable for fast to medium-paced retrieval. Use Rhythm Wave as the primary choice for fast to medium speed searching. Then, when you want to entice bass around densely populated with obstacles or near the surface at an ultra-dead-slow pace, switch to the Deadslowler. By employing this strategy, you can efficiently cover the fishing field and increase your chances of success.
7. Choose Huddle Tail Swimbaits for Even Subtler Movements When Needed
The Deadslowler is specifically designed to alert bass in moderately deep waters to its presence, prompting them to not only chase but also catch up to the bait. It features a paddle tail and is crafted to generate a substantial wobble in the body. However, such pronounced movements may not always attract bass, especially when they are extremely lethargic. In such scenarios, it's recommended to use other swimbaits designed for dead-slow, like Imakatsu's Huddle Swimmer series or the Lazy Swimmer. These feature a huddle tail that minimizes body movement and gently sways the tail, less likely to spook bass.
8. Select Dog-Walking Swimbaits for Attracting Bass from Deeper or More Distant Locations
For attracting bass from deeper or more distant locations around obstacles or cover, opt for swimbaits like Jackall's Blast Bone or Bounty Fish. Similar to the Deadslowler, these lures are effective in making short-distance appeals. They perform a dog-walk motion on or just below the surface, stirring the water more than the Deadslowler. This action is capable of alerting bass at a greater distance while still providing an enticing presentation over a short range.
9. Using Color Strategy for Obstacle Strikes, Visibility, and Natural Presentation
As of 2024, the Deadslowler is available in 10 different colors. Here are some recommendations for selecting the appropriate color based on various fishing scenarios:
For Intentionally Striking Obstacles
Opt for two-tone colors, which are effective for creating a sudden color change when the lure deliberately strikes an obstacle, triggering reaction bites.
LIVELY WAKASAGI
STRAWBERRY MILK
SPAWN GILL
MAMO GOLD & BLACK
INAKKO CLEAR
For Enhanced Visibility
The Deadslowler is intended to be used for surface or near-surface fishing within visible depths, where observing bass strikes is part of the enjoyment. Choose colors that are highly visible not only for effectiveness in murky conditions but also to ensure accurate hooking without missing the bite
