How to work it
Cast the Outcast to cover water quickly, letting its fast sink rate work through mid-water (2-10 m).
Retrieve with steady, medium-paced strips to activate its wide swimming action-the rear-weighted design generates visible, enticing movement that triggers strikes from aggressive predators.
Vary your retrieve speed and pause briefly to explore different depths; the lure's casting distance lets you reach fish other lures can't.
Effective in both ocean and estuary settings on pelagic and deeper-feeding species.
