JACKALL Pompadour Jr. Custom Glass Frog Bone — Floating Catfish Lure

Overview

The JACKALL Pompadour Jr. Custom Glass Frog Bone is a purpose-built lure designed with catfish anglers in mind. This model refines a proven pattern, featuring a larger rear prop that stirs water more noticeably and creates a deeper ripple. The interior steel balls add audible and visual cues with every motion, helping the lure stand out in varying light and water conditions. A double hook setup provides reliable bite opportunities while maneuvering around obstacles, and the high-visibility color scheme enhances visibility from a distance. When fished at slow speeds, the lure remains swimmable and responsive. The action isn’t limited to a straight retrieve; it also supports a pin spot attack, allowing precise targeting of seams, pockets, and structure where catfish may linger.

What to Expect in Water

In real-world use, the Pompadour Jr. delivers a balanced, lifelike motion that can be tuned to your environment. The combination of a floating body and deliberate weight distribution helps it sit at a favorable depth while you experiment with speed and retrieves. The larger rear prop creates a more pronounced disturbance, which can help the lure draw attention in turbid water or dim light. Steel balls inside the body contribute a rattle and flash that complements the lure’s color profile, adding a sensory cue that catfish can notice from a distance.
