"The Squid Rocket"
Imitator Pocket Squid Series:
The 6.5” Pocket Squid Softbait is a limited-edition finesse squid imitation built for picky stripers keyed in on micro squid. Featuring our durable Imitator Softbait plastic blend, long-casting aerodynamic body, natural squid profile, and Soft Circle Hook rigging, this bait delivers erratic fleeing-squid action with charter-grade toughness for multiple fish per bait.
These unrigged baits are designed for complete control. No internal weight means you call the shots: how fast it sinks, how it swims, where it lands, and what it imitates. It’s the softbait that adapts to you, not the other way around.
Why It Crushes:
- Best-in-Class Hand-Poured Plastic: Moves like it’s breathing. Holds up strike after strike.
- Unlimited Rigging Freedom: Weightless, weedless, belly-weighted, jig head—whatever the conditions demand.
- Maximum Natural Movement: No molded-in lead = exaggerated tail flutter, glide, and dart.
- Weedless-Ready: Rig it clean and fish it anywhere—grass lines, oyster beds, mangroves, or mid-column over boulders.
When to Reach for It:
- When fish are keyed in on natural motion
- When you need topwater finesse with tail action
- When you want a bait that feels alive and lets you fish how you want

Paired with an appropriately sized reel, these are a pleasure to fish for daily applications.
