NetBaitBF Ion 5in Black Blue Tip 8ct

The NetBait ION 5-inch soft plastic stick bait is engineered for bass, pike, and other predatory freshwater fish that hunt by sight and scent. These black body baits with blue tips deliver a lifelike profile on drop-shot rigs, shakey heads, and Texas rigs. What sets the ION apart is its internal BaitFuel infusion—a scent and attractant formula distributed throughout the bait body that creates a powerful scent dispersal as it falls and works through the water column. The result is a lure that combines visual appeal with chemical attraction, triggering strikes from both aggressive and reluctant fish.

The ION's design emphasizes a controlled, natural descent with a subtle side-to-side wiggle that mimics an injured or dying baitfish without excessive flash or commotion. This restrained action works especially well in clear water, around visible structure, and during periods when fish are feeding selectively. Whether you're fishing a shallow grass line, a deep rock pile, or anywhere in between, the ION's balanced presentation covers a lot of water while keeping your bait in the strike zone longer.

You get eight baits per pack—enough for a solid session without constantly retying or re-rigging. The black and blue color combination is a proven producer across seasons and water conditions, from stained to clear. If you're looking for a soft plastic stick that combines scent-infused attraction with a refined, natural action, the NetBait ION deserves a spot in your tackle box.
