Collection: BubbleDart Shorty

The BubbleDart Shorty delivers a crazy, erratic darting action in a compact profile—perfect for finicky fish or matching smaller forage. Because this plug is incredibly versatile, it comes without a hook to allow for the custom rigging your specific conditions require:

Walleye: Rig with a double snell and a nightcrawler threaded behind a bottom bouncer.

Salmon: Use a small, clean treble with a spacer or beads to distance the hook for open-water trolling.

Lakers: Pair with a small treble and a tied fly or squid, run behind a flasher or dodger.

Steelies: Try with a small gob of spawn or sac on the hook of your choice.

Coho: Rig with a peanut fly for double the attraction.

Whether you're down-sizing your presentation or targeting specific Great Lakes species, the Shorty is designed to be the most adaptable tool in your tackle box.
