Coda Lures MataBore Premium Tungsten Skirted Punching Weight

When the cover’s thick, go where the big ones live.

The Matabore Tungsten Skirted Punching Weight from Coda Lures is a specialized tool for reaching bass buried deep in heavy vegetation. If you fish mats, reeds, or jungle-thick grass lines, this is your rig.

Built around a dense, compact tungsten core, the Matabore delivers clean penetration and straight-line entry through hydrilla, hyacinth, and floating cover. The tungsten profile gives you fast fall rates in a smaller, more precise package — no splash, no deflection, no wasted flips.

But the real kicker? The skirt is wire-tied by hand directly to the head. No janky rubber collars. No separate skirts that shift or slip mid-fish. Just a clean, compact silhouette that flares subtly below the mat and keeps your bait stealthy and effective.

Matched with a Barracuda Baits compact trailer, you get one of the most efficient punching setups available. The trailer stays straight, stays rigged, and stays in the strike zone without overpowering the jig’s streamlined profile.

Why It Works with Barracuda Baits

The Matabore is built for integration. Our Barracuda trailers are designed to complement the jig’s tight fall, streamline the hookset, and hold up to repeated punching.

• Beaver-Style: Sleek entry, subtle glide — perfect for pressured mats

• Creature Baits: More water movement for overcast or stained conditions

• Craws: Compact flappers that stay active even in vertical falls

• Slim Swimbaits: When fish are feeding up in the mat column, offer something different

Each trailer fits cleanly behind the skirt and holds on during explosive sets — just the way your punching rig should.
