The Hondo 4.5 is a soft plastic baitfish design that merges classic minnow and shad realism with next-generation innovation. Built with a hybrid body shape featuring unique side appendages and a split kicking tail, the Hondo creates a lifelike, flowing action that triggers bites in a wide range of situations. At 4.5 inches, it’s perfectly sized to imitate common forage and fit a variety of techniques.
Each appendage and tail tip is finished with precision flanges that add stability and subtle movement, producing a smooth, natural kick as the bait swims. The hybrid profile displaces water just enough to draw attention without overpowering your presentation—making the Hondo 4.5 equally effective in finesse or power-fishing applications.
For enhanced rigging and performance, the Hondo includes a hook slot in the belly for easy, weedless rigging and solid hookups, along with a hook alignment line on the back to ensure perfect balance and tracking every time.
