Bait Breath eX-Rider Shrimp 4.8

The eX-Rider Shrimp (エクスライダーシュリンプ) is a back-slide worm produced by JB TOP50 competitor Yasunori Inoue, developed over roughly three years of on-the-water testing with Bait Breath's staff to perfect back-slide presentations.

The design pairs long antenna-like arms and legs for a stabilising effect with an egg-bearing (roe) body texture, a snagless spine that avoids cover without the hook point needing to be buried, a rear rib you can also set the hook point inside for heavy cover, a hydro blister fender for a stable slide posture, and a newly developed "rise-up" tail that catches water flow to lift the bait as it sinks, boosting the slide action. The low-centre-of-gravity, rear-weighted body is built for good castability in wind and for skipping into cover.

Recommended rig: back-slide Texas rig. Recommended hook size: offset hook 3/0–4/0. Target species: bass.

This listing stocks the 4.8in size in three colourways: #931 Green Pumpkin/Chartreuse, #939 Water Bug, and #961 Tasty Shrimp.
