The Shimano BT Bait 99SS Gizzard S is a slow-sinking, multi-jointed swimbait designed for finesse anglers who want lifelike presentation with greater depth control. Built with three hard-body segments and a supple elastomer tail, it delivers a smooth S-style swimming motion whether retrieved slowly or at a steady pace. Shimano’s SCALE BOOST holographic technology gives the lure a hyper-realistic baitfish shimmer that excels in clear water and pressured conditions where predators such as bass scrutinize every detail. The slow-sink rate allows anglers to count the lure down and target suspended fish or deeper structure with precision. Perfect for BFS and light-tackle presentations, the BT Bait 99SS brings Japanese swimbait refinement to finesse applications.
