Swimbait Republic Glideway 176 is a two-piece glidebait designed for pressured pike and big black bass. Cranked steadily, it shows a wide S-shaped swim, but the lure really comes alive when twitched or jerked. Short taps make it glide out to the sides, longer pulls send it sliding and hanging in the strike zone – ideal when fish follow but hesitate to commit.
Out of the box it is slow floating, perfect for fishing over weedbeds or around structure. Two included lead stickers can be placed on the marked spots on the belly to turn it into a suspender or a slow sinking model, allowing you to reach depths up to around 4 metres. The ABS body and silicone tail create a durable combination with a very natural look in the water, and the tail is interchangeable so colours and contrasts can be adjusted to the day’s conditions.
