About this piece
The Smith Baby Fat Ika is a downsized version of the popular Fat Ika creature bait, designed for finesse presentations. Its compact 80mm body and light weight make it ideal for medium baitcasting tackle, while the center-balanced design ensures a horizontal sliding fall. When paired with a finesse skirt, it delivers a highly responsive flaring action that entices bass.
