3.8″ Connecticut Broadside

$6.00

The 3.8″ Connecticut Broadside (8 pack) is a compact creature-style soft plastic designed for anglers who want a dense profile with layered action in tight spaces. Built to move water without excessive size, this bait excels when bass are feeding close to cover or reacting to subtle movement near the bottom.

Its body provides enough mass to displace water, while multiple appendages create independent motion during the fall and on slow retrieves. That combination allows the Broadside to look alive even when fished deliberately, making it effective in pressured conditions or when bass are reluctant to chase faster presentations.

The 3.8″ size is ideal for pitching, flipping, and bottom-contact techniques where control and precision matter. Whether worked through grass, dragged across rock, or slipped into wood, the Connecticut Broadside delivers a balanced blend of bulk and finesse that keeps bass engaged without overpowering the presentation.

3.8″ Connecticut Broadside – Compact Creature Bait for Precision Fishing

The 3.8″ Connecticut Broadside is built for anglers who want a creature-style presentation that stays compact while still creating water displacement and visual presence. With a dense central body and multiple moving appendages, this bait excels when bass are holding tight to structure or feeding near the bottom.

3.8 inch creature bait

A well-designed 3.8 inch creature bait must balance bulk and control. The Broadside’s appendages move independently, creating subtle vibration and motion as the bait falls or rests on the bottom. This allows the bait to remain active without constant rod movement, making it effective when bass are watching rather than chasing.

This profile works especially well in shallow cover, along edges, and in areas where bass ambush prey from tight positions. The compact size helps the bait slip into high-percentage spots while still presenting enough mass to be noticed.

Rigging Options and Cover-Focused Applications

The Connecticut Broadside performs well on Texas-style rigs, flipping and pitching setups, and as a compact trailer when probing heavy cover. It can be dragged slowly, hopped lightly, or worked in place to keep the bait in the strike zone longer. Both largemouth bass and smallmouth bass respond to its controlled movement and bottom-oriented profile.

When bass shift toward faster or mid-water forage, pairing this bait with a streamlined option like the
Redcoat Snapper
allows anglers to adjust presentation speed and profile without leaving productive water.
