Braid’s new Viper swimming plug is a rugged, realistic, hard-bodied bait designed to stand up to repeated strikes from relentless salt water gamefish. Featuring a double-jointed body that delivers “tail-wagging” action, salt water hooks and a clear-plastic lip, the Viper swims just below the surface and floats when the retrieve is stopped. It’s available in five-, seven- and ten-inch sizes, in nine lifelike patterns, including Green Mackerel, Sardine, Firetiger, Blue Mackerel, Blue Back/Silver and Smoke.
