About this piece
The Deps new HIGHSIDER 220 is a jointed crankbait designed to mimic the panicked escape of a willow gudgeon (ugui) pursued by monster bass. Its hollow ABS body, four-piece joint system, and thin elastomer tail reproduce the fleeing baitfish's motion with extreme realism. This high-float model rides up quickly over obstacles, reducing snags and allowing aggressive, fast retrieves.
