Extensive testing of the internal weight placement combined with a body shape that can only be made from HD ABS plastic makes the swimming action on the Riptide lures simply unbeatable. And what's more the super thick stainless-steel metal plate combined with the foam filled body mean no matter what you do to the Riptide, it will come back asking for more, and is up to the toughest challenge. All Riptide lures are finished with a super tough triple layer clear coat finish, applied by hand during production.

A long sweep of the rod tip makes the head duck under with a splash, then as the water flows over the lure's body a seductive body roll and S-wave action is imparted sub-surface.
