Returns Simplified.The Deps Highsider 172 is a premium cranking lure engineered to mimic the desperate escape movements of a fleeing baitfish. Inspired by real predator-prey encounters, this lure captures the panicked swimming action, tail swing, and pitch of a hunted fish with exceptional realism. Built with a hybrid construction combining foam resin body with an ultra thin elastomer tail on an ABS hollow core, the Highsider delivers proven monster bass attraction across multiple fishing conditions. The precision tuned joint angle, weight balance, and body shape ensure consistent, lifelike performance.
Featuring a detachable lip design, switch to lipless configuration for clear water presentations or shallow subsurface retrieves where visibility demands a more subtle approach. A versatile choice for serious bass anglers targeting trophy-class fish.
Product Description:
The four-piece segmented body design captures the lifelike swimming motion of a hunted baitfish in full escape mode. The distinctive fan-shaped ridge running along the tail section controls tail movement, preventing excessive amplitude while enhancing the natural undulation of the middle body. This engineered restraint creates the authentic panic-stricken action that triggers predatory instinct in trophy bass.
In addition, by adjusting the joint angle of the first joint, it is possible to fine tune the flexible action.
Before each fishing session, inspect the joint shaft for any looseness and tighten if needed. For added security, apply a screw-locking agent to prevent vibration induced loosening during extended use. This simple maintenance step ensures the multi piece body maintains its precise action and structural integrity throughout your day on the water.
The high-float design features enhanced buoyancy that prevents snagging when the lure contacts weeds, rocks, and other underwater obstacles. It rapidly ascends away from cover, allowing you to maintain aggressive, fast-paced retrieves through dense structure. This keeps the lure working in the strike zone longer, dramatically improving your chances of triggering bites from bass holding tight to cover.
New Highsider 172 High-Float, 172mm body, 2.5oz weight. Enhanced buoyancy design rapidly rises from obstacles like weeds and rocks, minimizing snags during fast-paced retrieves through structure. The high-float specification keeps the lure in the strike zone longer, increasing contact with bass hiding in cover. Available in multiple sizes; 220 and 145 models also feature high float performance.
The durable polycarbonate lip delivers precise water control with sharp, responsive action while resisting impact from cover. Its wide design enables aggressive cranking through dense vegetation and timber to depths around 1.5 meters, allowing you to probe structure where trophy bass hide without snagging or breaking free.
The quick release lip system lets you switch between configurations instantly. Remove the lip with a single lever motion to access the lipless mode, which creates surface disturbance and wave action that mimics a baitfish in panic escape. This topwater presentation triggers aggressive strikes from trophy bass that detect the commotion. The polycarbonate lip is durable and replaceable spare parts are readily available through Deps dealers if damaged or lost.
