In 2013 Hogy Lure Company introduced the HDUV Paddle and Eel Series with Barbarian Jig Head rigging, while these baits have been a timeless
classic, the Protail Thumper offers easier rigging, a more durable Protail Softbait Plastic, and a damage-reducing Battle Pocket along the dorsal for reduced softbait damage after multiple fish. Paired with the
bluefin tuna and tarpon-tested Ultra Barbarian Jig, these Swimbaits are ready to tackle any trophy species.

Designed for DIY anglers, the Protail Thumper is designed for ultra-thumping vibration and wobble, durability, and simple, perfect rigging every
time. Each bait is infused with high-visibility UV pigment and heavy-duty blended soft plastic for solid jig head connections. We recommend pairing it with the Hogy Ultra Barbarian Jig Head for a perfectly balanced presentation.

    Protail Thumper

    I dropped the protail thumper near the bottom and got slammed by a nice striper. Highly recommend.

    Striper Candy! You can see my 4oz Trolling Weight in the background. Heavy Duty products that stand up to hard pulling aggresive fish.

    Improved swimming action = more strikes

    In my opinion the Protail Thumper Swimbaits are an improvement over the original Protail Paddles, because they have a better swimming action, due to a thinner, more flexible paddletail.

    I also was pleased to see the Thumpers offered with a chartreuese color pattern, which seems to be the currently hot color up here in the Florida Panhandle during our annual tarpon migration.
