The Luhr-Jensen Speed Trap is a medium diving crankbait made using a computer-controlled molding process
Specifically desighned to not roll out on high-speed retrieves.
Thin-wall construction for maximum vibration.
These baits float when you stop them which enables you to use them in a stop-and-go retrieve and not have them drop into grass or sticks where they'll hang up.
These baits are available in 1/4 and 1/8-ounce sizes and come in an incredible range of colors.
The Luhr-Jensen Speed Trap is a medium diving crankbait made using a computer-controlled molding process. This process creates a very thin-walled, high-action body, which produces maximum vibration while offering incredible balance. This crankbait will not roll over at any speed. Work it slow or burn it over shallow cover, presenting the bait to the maximum number of fish. Pros have referred to the Speed Trap as the "Limit Getter" for its ability to cover water quickly and effectively.
A pro's quote in Bassmaster magazine explained, "It's a great search bait. I always have one tied on when I go to a lake I've never been before. It's a confidence thing. I can cover water fast and learn which areas hold bass."
Dive depths for the 1/8 and 1/4-ounce models are 5 and 8-feet respectively.

Started using these a few years ago, this hook is my go to hook in many fishing situations. They come in a wide variety of sizes. I've used these on wacky rigs, drop-shotting, slip bobbers, live bait rigs and ice fishing under tip-ups. They've caught panfish, walleye, bass, and trout. I have not found a sharper, thin wired, quality hook. Absolutely excellent!
I rig this product with a 1/10 to 1/8 oz jig head hook. Preferably a shroom head, but standard works great as well. For me this Bait works best when fishing pockets or pot holes on the flats. The body is buoyant enough that it will appear to be rooting along the bottom. I fish this bait very slow using a subtle twitch to trigger a strike . Green Pumpkin Goby is my favorite color but it is best to match the water color you are fishing.
Tested and used this lure trolling for striped bass in California Delta. It provides great action and travels 13 ft deep depending on speed and current. It’s a proven fish catcher. Add a curly white tail worm to the trailer hook. Highly recommended.
