Strike Pro Buster V 8.5cm

TheStrike Pro Buster V (also known as “Buster Five”) is the fifth evolution in the legendary Buster Jerk family — a compact, precise glidebait built for finesse predator fishing. It carries the same iconic side-to-side movement and sharp belly flash as the classic Buster Jerk, but in a smaller, suspending form that excels in clearer water and tougher conditions. On the pause, the Buster V hangs perfectly in place, holding in the strike zone long enough to trigger even the most cautious fish.

The 8.5cm suspending model shines for:

• Sea trout (perfect size and suspension for coastal and river work)
• Rainbow trout in lakes and reservoirs
• Perch on glidebait days
• Pike when they’re feeding on smaller prey
• Asp hunting fast, flashy baitfish
• Fishing pressured or cold water where suspending lures outperform sinking ones
• Pausing mid-retrieve to trigger following fish

This is your go-to glidebait when fish want a smaller, more subtle presentation.
