GILLROID Jr. Dive Featuring FD Guard and the New LIVE Tail
A Lip-Equipped GILLROID Jr. Built to Conquer Heavy Cover
The GILLROID Jr. Dive is a lip-equipped version of the renowned GILLROID Jr., designed to tackle heavy cover areas that have traditionally been difficult to fish with conventional big baits.
By incorporating Fish Device's patented FD Guard System (PAT), the lure achieves exceptional snag-resistance and cover-avoidance performance.
This innovative system allows anglers to work the lure aggressively through timber, vegetation, and other heavy-cover environments while maintaining full control of its action.
The lip features an Easy One-Touch mechanism, allowing the FD Guard to be quickly removed on the water without tools, providing instant adaptability to changing fishing conditions.
Newly Developed LIVE Tail
The newly developed LIVE Tail delivers an unprecedented level of realism.
As its name suggests, multiple independently moving tail segments create subtle, lifelike motion that closely resembles the natural movement of a real fish.
One of its most distinctive characteristics occurs during the rise phase, where the body may remain stationary while the tail continues trembling and moving naturally.
This realistic secondary action adds both visual appeal and behavioral realism, encouraging bass to commit to strikes.
Each tail segment also grips water independently, creating additional drag that helps reduce forward movement during side-to-side walking actions, allowing the lure to stay in the strike zone longer.
Redesigned Body for Superior Walking Action
The body has been completely redesigned to maximize joint articulation.
The increased range of motion allows anglers of all skill levels to create effortless side-to-side walking actions.
On a steady retrieve, the lure produces a powerful flat-sided swimming action.
When worked with rod action, its tall-bodied profile generates intense water displacement while maintaining minimal forward travel.
Remove the lip, and the combination of FD Guard and LIVE Tail makes it highly effective for sight-fishing applications as well.
The trusted and proven GILLROID Jr. continues to evolve, offering anglers entirely new ways to trigger bass strikes.
FD Guard Compatibility Even in Lipless Mode
A dedicated attachment is included, allowing anglers to use the FD Guard system even when the lip is removed.
This enables the lure's signature "Stay & Escape" presentation within heavy cover, where subtle pauses, escapes, and directional changes can provoke aggressive reaction bites from bass.
Equipped with a Quick Changer Hanger
A Quick Changer Hanger is mounted beneath the chin of the lure.
This feature allows for fast accessory changes and setup adjustments, improving versatility and efficiency on the water.
A Big Bait Tuned More Toward Feeding Response
The GILLROID Jr. Dive is designed not only as a search bait but also as a highly effective feeding-trigger bait.
While its walking action allows anglers to efficiently cover water, it can also be worked slowly and deliberately around key targets such as cover edges, openings in vegetation, submerged timber, and ambush points.
By allowing fish to see, track, and study the lure before striking, it creates highly convincing feeding opportunities.
Its combination of powerful water displacement and extremely short travel distance is a hallmark characteristic that only a flat-sided big bait can deliver.
