Smaller and Larger Sizes Now Offered in Storm 360GT Swimmer Jigs

To help anglers match the hatch on multiple waterbodies with baitfish of different sizes swimming at multiple depths, Storm 360GT Searchbait Swimmers Jigs are available now in two new sizes – one a quarter-ounce lighter than the original model, and one a quarter-ounce heavier.

The new ⅛-ounce 360GT Swimmer Jig comes armed with a 2/0 VMC Coastal Black Hook and pre-rigged on a 3-½-inch 360GT Searchbait soft-plastic, boot-tail swimbait body. The new ⅜-ounce Swimmer Jig comes armed with a 7/0 hook and pre-rigged on a 5-½-inch body. The original 360GT Swimmer Jig model weighs a quarter ounce, features a 4/0 hook and comes pre-rigged on a 4-inch body.

“One big deal with the action of any swimbait is being able to fit the head to the body of the plastic, and not have a larger head size on a smaller body, or vice versa,” says Rapala Pro Davy Hite, a Bassmaster Classic Champion. “These fit perfectly.”

Storm 360GT Searchbait Swimmer Jigs are designed to reach the strike zone quickly and trigger more bites. “GT” stands for “Go To” bait. A lip built into the Swimmer Jig provides depth control and crankbait-style action.

“Whatever waterbody you’re on will have some baitfish that the largemouth, smallmouth or spotted bass key on,” Hite says. “Depending where you are, baitfish could be smaller or larger than the last place you fished, and they could be set up shallow or deep, or suspended somewhere in the water column. With three Swimmer sizes now, we can put our bait in the strike zone, no matter where it is.”

Additional features of 360GT Searchbait Swimmer Jigs include an accessory hanger behind the lip, a lifelike design, 3D holographic eyes, a single-ball rattle, an exclusive VMC Coastal Black Hook and an extended, 60-degree line-tie leg.

360GT Searchbait Swimmer Jigs come packaged with three 360GT Searchbait soft-plastic bodies, one of them pre-rigged on the jig. The bodies are made from phthalate-free soft plastic. A hook channel and well-marked hook exit hole make them easy to rig. They are available in 11 color patterns.
