Duel Yo-Zuri 3DB Pencil Floating Lure – 4in Gizzard Shad

Immersive realism meets versatile performance

The Yo-Zuri 3DB Pencil floats with a compact 4-inch profile, designed to mimic a live baitfish in water. Its 100 mm form is easy to cast, handles a variety of retrieves, and presents a natural silhouette at multiple depths. The combination of size, buoyancy, and subtle movement helps you cover water efficiently from shore to boat.

What makes this lure stand out

Internally, a patented 3D prism finish catches light from every angle, complemented by a refreshed painted coating for added depth and color under sun and shade. The result is a lure that reads as lifelike under clear water and dim light alike, helping you attract more attention without sacrificing casting distance.

• Internal cadence rattle and BB’s add a subtle, attention-getting sound chord during the retrieve.
• Easy to “walk” with a smooth, responsive action that invites a walking-the-dog style retrieve without excessive effort.
• Round bend black nickel treble hooks combine strength and corrosion resistance for confident hookups.
• Floating design gives you control over depth and presentation, helping you adapt to structure and cover.

Tips for successful presentations

Try a measured retrieve along weed lines, docks, and drop-offs. Pausing briefly imitates a wounded baitfish, while steady pulls keep the lure ticking across the surface or just below it. Pair the motion with a deliberate twitch to provoke light-chasing bites.

• Use a medium-to-light rod with a cadence that allows precise pauses and subtle jerks.
• Cast beyond structure, reel to keep the lure in the strike zone, and vary cadence to test fish response.

Designed for versatility, this lure can be used in a range of freshwater environments. The interplay of reflective prism finish and vivid paint helps the lure stand out under varied lighting, while the internal rattle adds an extra cue to potential targets. While results depend on conditions and timing, the 3DB Pencil offers a compelling option for anglers seeking a compact, buoyant lure with a realistic profile.
