Abu Garcia Beast Paddletail 17cm 49g Soft lure – Premium Pike Softbait with Powerful Rolling Action
The Abu Garcia Beast Paddletail 17cm 49g is a high-performance soft plastic paddletail lure engineered to set a new standard for big-pike softbaits. Designed and refined in collaboration with Europe’s top pike anglers, this 17 cm, 49 g sinking swimbait delivers large rolling body movements combined with a massive, thumping paddle-tail kick that creates strong vibrations and an irresistible swimming action.
Built for cast-and-retrieve fishing over vegetation, weed beds, and structure, the Beast Paddletail moves cleanly through cover while remaining highly versatile. Rig it unweighted or on a light setup for shallow presentations, or add weight to target deeper-lying pike. The result is a consistent, steady rocking motion that travels the full length of the shad profile—ideal for triggering aggressive strikes from large, cautious predators.
