The glide bait
Tune it. Then get bit.
Most glide baits arrive tuned once, at the factory, and that is the action you are stuck with. The GLYDE does not. Back out the eyebolts for a tight, straight weave. Screw them in for a long glide and hang time. Count your turns and the bait is yours.

Screw each eyebolt in 180° at a time — or screw each eyebolt out.

Get bit.
Pro tip
Count your turns
Eyebolts in
Longer glides and hang time.
Eyebolts out
Tighter chops, or a tighter straight weave.
Turn the eyebolts and the two halves sit closer or further apart. Closer gives a tight, quick walk. Further gives a wide, lazy glide with hang time between turns.
They never lock solid — there is always play at the joint, which is what keeps the bait alive on the pause.
Field proof
Real water. Real fish.
Every fish below was caught on a GLYDE. No studio tanks, no stock photos.
Snook01 03Third cast. Tuned the eyebolts two turns in for a longer glide and it got crushed on the pause. The wire-thru held up to a fish that would have straightened anything else in my box.
