LUCKY CRAFT Lightning Pointer 98XR – 4-inch Freshwater Bass & Walleye Jerkbait, 6-7ft Depth, 052 Aurora Black

Product overview

The Lightning Pointer 98XR is a compact 4-inch freshwater jerkbait designed to tempt fish in the mid-depth range. With a 1/2-ounce profile and a slow-sinking action, this lure targets the 6–7 ft zone where largemouth and walleye often show up near structure and drop-offs.

Its weighted transfer system helps you cast farther in breezy conditions, letting you reach key spots along points, ledges, and rocky areas. The lure delivers a deliberate jerk and an erratic slash that imitates a fleeing baitfish, offering a convincing presence for bass and walleye in varied water colors and clarity.
