The Northbar tackle Bottledarter lure, specifically the 1102-A 22 Blue Mackerel version, is an incredibly versatile lure that can be used in various fishing techniques. When the water is calm, it can be swam on the surface like a metal lip lure. By retrieving it slowly, it produces a nice wiggle and creates a wake on the surface that is sure to attract fish. In areas with minimal current, a slow and steady retrieve is effective. Adding a few twitches of the rod tip will make the lure dart, adding to its appeal to fish. The Bottledarter lure is particularly effective in areas with current rips. Simply cast the lure, maintain contact with it by taking up the slack, and allow it to sweep along with the current. Occasionally, crank the reel while simultaneously lifting the rod tip to make the lure swim more vigorously. As you reel down slowly and maintain tension on the line, repeat this retrieve pattern and be prepared for action! The Bottledarter lure is loaded with 10cc's of liquid, which adds to its performance. Northbar's testing has shown that the loaded lure casts very well and exhibits slightly different darting action compared to the unloaded lure. This lure has already caught some impressive fish.
