The SpoolTek Fatty is a 4-inch sinking lure that is designed to mimic various baitfish such as pilchards, croakers, pinfish, finger mullet, herring, threadfin shad, gizzard shad, and bunker. Its unique feature is an internal spool that contains a stainless steel leader (braid for Bass colors only). This leader is designed to separate from the lure when a fish strikes, allowing anglers to use lighter leaders attached to the eyelet of the lure. This not only enhances the lure's action but also helps prevent breakoffs caused by the internal leader. Additionally, by separating from the lure, the hooked fish is unable to use the lure's weight for leverage to throw the hook.
