We are excited to introduce our newest lure called the Flea Flicker.
This suspending twitch lure has proven to be an excellent lure for getting strikes from redfish, seatrout, snook, and various other species on days when the bite it tough.
It was designed to be a finesse hard bait that covers depths ranging from 1 to 3 ft.
See below for an introduction video of the this lure along with a fun video showing my very first time testing it out.

First Trial Video
In case you’d like to see how this lure performs on the water, here’s a video from the very first time I used this lure.
As you’ll see, I had a blast testing it out because it quickly (on the first cast) proved to be excellent at generating strikes.
Equipment Used:
- Rod: Prototype
- Reel: Otis 2500
- Mainline: Prototype
- Leader: Ande Monofilament 10lb with a 20lb bite-tippet
- Lure: Flea Flicker
- Vessel: 22ft Pathfinder
Conclusion
It’s important to have a suspending twitch lure that you trust on hand for days when the bite is slow because these types of lures can trigger strikes from fish aren’t hungry.
The reason these lures do good on lethargic fish is because they have a slow retrieve that triggers a predator fish’s natural instinct to take advantage of an easy meal.
This Flea Flicker lure has risen to the top of my list for suspending twitch lures, so I hope you decide to put it to the test yourself.
If you somehow don’t find that it works as good as you hoped, just let us know and we’ll refund what you paid for the lure.

Missed two BIG snook off my seawall, both over 20”, had them on and somehow they threw the hook. Also had a good bass first thing off my dock but she broke off going under my dock.
Also waisted on of the 3 i bought as I was casting and knocked it against a dock post, broke the hard outer shell.
I have no doubt about this lure catching fish, but I think I’m going to change out the rear hook.
I would love any suggestions.
What rod are you using? If a soft Medium Light powered rod, they do not allow for consistently good hooksets with most lures that don’t have trebles.
I had a chance to throw a slam shady flea flicker this weekend.
Pros: nice action, twitching and dead sticking with current.
Cons: the weight. 1/4 oz is super light. No wind, no problem on a medium action rod. I had a very hard time casting diagonally across the wind. I think around 1/2 oz makes it a more versatile lure. Thanks.
Thanks for sharing the helpful suggestion Josh! I’m pleased to report that we have a bigger version of it in the works.
Luke, looking for those replacement hooks. I have a skinny lipper and the barb is gone and both hooks deteriorated. Thanks for the help.

Thanks for your continued support Thomas!
Can’t wait to try them.
We look forward to seeing what you catch with these new lures.
20+ Trout with it on my first trip using it!
Got home and bought the variety pack🤷
Great work on the quick success Roger!
Thanks for the video, it was informative and will have to try it out Tight Lines!!!
Thanks Harvey!
Great video!
Thanks for making time to post the nice comment David!
Pumped about this new lure!
Joe when will the salt strong wake baits be available?
That’s awesome, but in my neck of the woods, We need something that covers the 3 to 6 foot water column. That’s where we catch the majority of our winter fish.
For that depth range in the winter months, my confidence lure is the Prawn USA Jr rigged on a 1/4 oz jighead.
