The SpoolTek Fatty is a revolutionary fishing lure that has been meticulously engineered to mimic the appearance and swimming action of various baitfish, such as pilchards, croakers, pinfish, finger mullet, herring, threadfin shad, gizzard shad, and bunker. Its standout feature is an internal spool mechanism equipped with a stainless steel leader or a braid (for Bass colors), which extends once a fish strikes the lure. This groundbreaking design allows fishermen to use lighter leaders for the lure itself, which enhances the action and minimizes the risk of break-offs from heavy leaders. Furthermore, when a fish is hooked, it has a difficult time throwing the hook as it can't use the lure's weight to leverage it out, resulting in improved hookup ratios.
