BlueBlue - Bashoot 105
Specifications
About this lure
The Bashooot!!! 105 is a jig-minnow that combines the best of both worlds – long-distance casting, tough offshore construction, and a lifelike swimming action that matches common baitfish. At 105mm and 37g, it’s compact enough for inshore use but strong enough to handle serious pelagics offshore.
Key Features
- Length / Weight: 105mm / 37g
- Long-range casting – slim, aerodynamic design cuts air resistance for maximum distance, ideal for reaching surface bust-ups.
- Versatile swimming action – strong wobble-and-roll on the retrieve, plus horizontal rolling on the fall.
- Through-wire build – heavy-duty strength to withstand brutal strikes from offshore predators.
-
Flexible hook options:
- #2 hooks with #5 rings for offshore species like kingfish and tuna.
- #4 hooks with #3 rings for surf and inshore targets like kahawai, snapper, and trevally.
- Multi-species design – effective in surf, rocks, or offshore boils.
Why It Works
The Bashooot!!! 105 is the perfect all-round jig-minnow – cast it long into baitfish schools, let it fall with a natural horizontal roll, or wind it straight to trigger reaction strikes. Its compact body perfectly matches common bait sizes, while its strong construction and adaptable rigging make it equally at home chasing kahawai and trevally from the surf or kingfish and tuna offshore.

How to work it
Cast the Bashooot 105 long into surface activity-its aerodynamic 105mm body and 37g weight deliver distance to reach bust-ups and baitfish schools.
Retrieve with steady wind to trigger a strong wobble-and-roll action, or pause and let it fall with a natural horizontal roll to entice strikes. Work it in the surface zone with sharp twitches between pauses, or strip it steadily through feeding fish.
The through-wire construction handles hard strikes from pelagics; pair it with overhead or baitcaster gear rated for offshore work.
