The Berkley Powerbait Water Bug, designed by professional bass fishing legend Mike Iaconelli, is a soft bait that is perfect for finesse-style fishing. Its main purpose is to entice even the most selective bass into biting.
One of the standout features of the Water Bug is its scooped split tail. This design allows it to catch water and create a subtle waving motion throughout its body. Additionally, the small appendages on the sides naturally quiver, even when there is minimal water flow.
Berkley's Powerbait material is buoyant by nature, giving the Water Bug the ability to level out when used on a drop shot rig. Its flat bottom also allows for a natural gliding motion in the water. Furthermore, the Water Bug works exceptionally well on a Ned jig head or as a trailer on a skirted micro jig.
What sets the Water Bug apart is its lifelike quivering action and the addition of Berkley's renowned Powerbait scented formula. This combination makes it an irresistible treat that very few fish could resist.
