wobbler

A wobbler is a type of fishing lure designed to mimic the swimming action of baitfish. Its distinctive movement is typically achieved through a rigid body with a lip or bib positioned at an angle. This lip causes the lure to rock or "wobble" from side to side as it is retrieved through the water. The size, shape, and angle of the lip, along with the lure's body design, determine the specific wobbling action, including its width, frequency, and depth.

Wobblers come in a wide variety of sizes, shapes, and colors to appeal to different fish species and fishing conditions. Some are designed to float, while others sink or suspend. The lip can also be angled to control the diving depth of the lure. The retrieve speed and rod action can further influence how the wobbler behaves, allowing anglers to experiment and find the most effective presentation. They are a popular choice for various freshwater and saltwater game fish.
