The Acme HG4/PR Hyper-Glide Bait in PurpleRain is a compact lure designed for versatile casting and precise control. At 1.5 inches in length and weighing 1/10 oz, this bait slips through the water with a balanced wake that you can feel in the rod hand. The PurpleRain finish adds high visibility without overpowering the natural silhouette, helping you track the lure from a distance and adapt your retrieve on the fly. Built around a focus on motion, sound, and timing, the HG4/PR offers a measured approach to entice strikes across a range of fishing situations.

Smart action that invites bites

• Life-like gill action from Wings that open and close, producing believable motion that imitates a target’s breathing or fleeing movement.
• Wings open and close to generate a distinct audible cue as the lure interacts with water and cover.
• Unprecedented jigging action adds vertical motion to the lure profile during pauses, increasing the chance of a strike.

How to fish the HG4/PR

• Cast beyond structures or weed lines, then vary the retrieve speed to trigger reaction bites.
• Use steady pulls with short jerks to simulate erratic prey and tempt defensive fish.
• Pause briefly mid-retrieve to let the lure settle and then resume the glide.
• Combine slow and fast segments to explore different water columns and depths without overworking the lure.

The PurpleRain hue improves visibility in murky water and low light, while the compact size keeps the lure easy to handle on light tackle. This combination supports versatile fishing styles, from long casts along weed edges to controlled jigging near cover.

Why choose this lure

• Compact 1.5 inch profile with a 1/10 oz weight supports a range of methods.
• Realistic gill and wing motion offers a convincing predator cue without heavy hardware.
• Audible wing cues provide an extra sensory signal that can aid decision making during retrieves.

Note that results vary with water conditions, target species, and technique. Use this lure as part of a balanced approach to casting and retrieval, adjusting speed and pause length to your water and cover.
