High-Action Performance: The 3.5" Bomber Grub

The Barracuda Baits 3.5" Bomber Grub is a versatile soft plastic grub designed to create consistent tail action and vibration at a wide range of retrieve speeds. Its substantial body provides a strong profile while the curl tail produces movement whether the bait is swimming, falling, or crawling along the bottom.

Fish it as a standalone bait or use it as a trailer when you want to add extra action and profile to your presentation.

Why Fish the 3.5" Bomber Grub?

  • High-Action Curl Tail: Produces steady swimming action and vibration at both slow and faster retrieve speeds.

  • Versatile Trailer: Works well behind swim jigs, spinnerbaits, buzzbaits, and other moving presentations.

  • Multiple Depths: Effective around shallow grass, docks, points, ledges, timber, and other bass-holding structure.

  • Durable Soft Plastic: Hand-poured using a soft plastic blend designed to provide strong action while holding up through repeated use.

  • Bass Fishing Versatility: Effective for both largemouth and smallmouth bass across a variety of water conditions.

Recommended Rigging & Techniques

  1. Swim Jig Trailer: Add the Bomber Grub to a swim jig for extra profile, vibration, and tail movement.

  2. Spinnerbait or Buzzbait Trailer: Use it behind moving baits to increase bulk and secondary action.

  3. Texas Rig: Rig it weedless for fishing around brush, vegetation, timber, and other cover.

  4. Jig Head: Fish it on a ball head or similar jig for a simple swimming or bottom-contact presentation.

  5. Slow-Rolling: Retrieve it steadily along deeper structure, ledges, and drop-offs while allowing the curl tail to work naturally.

Custom Performance Options

Salt Levels

  • No Salt: Lighter bait with increased buoyancy and a slower fall.

  • Light Salt: Added density while maintaining good tail action.

  • Heavy Salt: Increased weight and a faster sink rate for deeper water or current.

Scent Infusions

Available scent options allow you to customize your Bomber Grub based on fishing conditions and personal preference.

Color Selection Guide

  • Clear Water / Sunny Conditions: Natural baitfish and translucent colors can provide a subtle presentation.

  • Stained Water / Mixed Light: Bluegill, green pumpkin, and contrasting patterns can help the bait stand out.

  • Dirty Water / Low Light: Darker colors and stronger contrast can create a more visible silhouette.

    I throw this as a buzzbait trailer. Perfect for it. Work well on a bladed jig too.
