Yum Dinger 5" 8ct Sugar Plum

The Yum Dinger 5" soft plastic stick bait is a workhorse in any bass angler's tackle box. Available in an 8-count pack in Sugar Plum, this lure delivers the kind of reliable, versatile performance that's made it a go-to choice for both tournament pros and weekend hunters. Whether you're targeting shallow cover, working offshore structure, or probing transition zones, the Dinger's subtle, natural action and compact profile trigger strikes from bass in a wide range of conditions—especially when pressure is high and fish are finicky.

What sets the Dinger apart is its honest design: a tapered, stick-style body that mimics a natural forage profile without unnecessary flash or gimmicks. The lure's action comes from its shape and material composition, giving it that lifelike movement in the water that pressured fish find hard to refuse. The lure's unique hook slot is engineered to improve hook-ups, reducing missed strikes and lost fish. And because Yum Baits builds these baits tougher than many competitors, you'll get more productive casts per bait—a real advantage when you're burning through presentations or fishing heavy cover.

Rig the Dinger Texas-style for punching grass and thick vegetation, go weightless on a wacky rig for a finesse approach, or use it as your Carolina rig trailer for dragging soft bottom. It's this rigging flexibility that makes the Dinger such a reliable standby. Sugar Plum is a proven color choice that works across a variety of water conditions and times of year.
