Since day one, Northland’s mission has always been the same—to build a better bait for everyday anglers and pros alike. That’s why they’ve partnered with best-in-class hook manufacturer Gamakatsu on the Elite Series MVP Jig. The jig features a Gamakatsu Jig 90 Big River hook with a large gap and acute bend that offers great holding power, locking fish in place. Whether fishing soft plastics or upsized live bait—you’re going to want to give the new Elite Series MVP Series Jig a shot. From vertical fishing to pitching or “strolling,” it’s got a hook that’s simply unforgiving and keeps fish buttoned. Available in four sizes and 14 fishy colors. MSRP is $6.49 (3 pack). |

Reed-Runner Walking and Popping Frogs If it walks like a duck, it’s a duck…or maybe a frog, loon, lab rat, blackbird, or baby turtle. At least that’s what the bass say. These dedicated surface smashers don’t discriminate against much of anything struggling or stroking on the surface that represents a square meal. With topwater mayhem on the mind, Northland brings forth the Reed-Runner Walking and Popping Frogs. The premium baits are heralded for their high hookup ratios, super weedless design, stout and sharp hooks, and expertly crafted patterns. Both models are available in 10 patterns. MSRP is $9.99. |

Weedless Fire-Ball and Weedless Stand-Up Fire-Ball Jigs You’d better be hot if you’re going to be called “Fire-Ball,” and that’s exactly how a new jig from Northland is coming across. Meet the Weedless Fire-Ball and Weedless Stand-Up Fire-Ball Jigs, specialized versions of the perennial favorite Fire-Ball Jig that solve the problem of delivering bait in the weeds without fouling. A double wire titanium weed guard arising from behind the line tie allows these new upstarts to squirt through emerging spring and thickening summer weeds with ease. Unlike steel and plastic weed guards, Northland’s titanium version keeps its shape and better bounces off timber, too. Both versions come in two sizes and eight jarring colors. MSRP is $4.99 (2 pack). |

If you’ve paid any attention to the progression of ice baits for lake trout, pike, and outsized walleyes, you’ve noticed that there’s a trend toward fishing big tubes for more and bigger fish. The dense Level-Head Predator Tube stays around the hole and marks well on electronics. Predator Tubes also hang horizontally and dart like the dickens when jigged. Its primary hook is stout and sharp, supplemented by a blood red treble to finish the job. Available in three sizes and four effective colors. MSRP is $7.99 (1 rigged and an extra body). |
