Coda Lures Premium TALISMAN "Swim" Jig

No Bands. No Roll. No Weak Hooks. Just Swim and Strike.

The Talisman Swim Jig from Coda Lures is the answer when you want to cover water, fish fast, and still present a clean, natural-looking baitfish profile. Designed to swim straight through grass lines, hard cover, and open lanes, it’s a search bait with precision in its DNA.

Its bullet-style head slices through vegetation and glides under docks with ease. Whether you’re burning it across a weed flat or skipping it into shady ambush zones, the Talisman is built to keep your line tight and your bait on track.

The magic is in the details: the skirt is hand-tied with wire, not bands. That means no more slipping skirts, misaligned flare, or rubber failure. It keeps its shape cast after cast, and when fish follow, that subtle pulse can make the difference.

Anchoring the rig is a 4/0 Owner Jungle Hook, one of the strongest and most reliable hooks available. It’s perfectly suited to pair with Barracuda Baits trailers, whether you’re fishing for subtle finesse or thumping reaction.

From early spring baitfish chasers to late fall grass cruisers, this jig is meant to stay tied on — and paired with the right trailer, it stays deadly.

Pairing with Barracuda Baits

The right trailer can turn a good swim jig into a killer, and our plastics are built to sync with the Talisman’s profile and performance.

• Paddletails: Natural thump with body roll — ideal for straight retrieves




• Twin-Tail Grubs: Great for stop-and-go motion or stained water flash




• Streamlined Creatures: More kick without overwhelming the jig’s balance




• Compact Craws/Chunks: For skipping and tighter casting situations

All trailers are designed to fit cleanly on the 4/0 hook, with tight body hold and clean hook gap to keep your hookup ratio high.

Tactical Use Cases

• Early Spring Pre-Spawn: Swim over warming flats with a Barracuda paddletail and watch for cruisers




• Midday Dock Targets: Skip tight with a flat-back trailer that won’t cause helicoptering




• Windy Grass Edges: Use 1/2 oz with a bulkier trailer to keep it down and visible




• Post-Front Calm Water: Downsize to 1/4 oz with a subtle swimmer and finesse your retrieve
