Gibbs Delta Needlefish 4.5-inch - UV PURPLE SPATTER BACK

The Gibbs Delta Needlefish is a 4.5-inch soft-bait squid designed for saltwater trolling and targeting salmon, trout and other pelagic species. Manufactured in Japan by Yamashita from specialty vinyl, the Needlefish delivers a slim, lifelike profile and supple action when trolled behind a flasher or dodger. Gibbs Delta rigged variants come with dual Sharp 4/0 hooks tied on a 40 lb, 72-inch leader for immediate deployment.

Key Features

• Slim Profile: Streamlined 4.5-inch shape produces realistic swimming action ideal for trolling behind flashers and dodgers.
• Premium Material: Japanese specialty vinyl provides natural flex and durability in saltwater conditions.
• Rigged & Ready: Available rigged with dual Sharp 4/0 hooks on a 40 lb, 72-inch leader; non-rigged 5-packs let anglers customize terminal tackle.

Whether you are chasing chinook, coho, or inshore saltwater species, the Needlefish is engineered to attract strikes with reduced drag and enhanced presentation. Gibbs Delta designed the bait to maintain action at common trolling speeds while the soft, supple material resists tearing and holds paint and glow finishes. Rigged versions save time on the water, while non-rigged packs give flexibility to pair with specific hooks, leaders, or clip systems.

Specifications: 4.5-inch body length. Typical single rigged package measures approximately 6 x 4 x 0.5 inches and weighs about 0.045 kg (≈1.6 oz). Compatible with standard flashers, dodgers and downrigger setups; ideal for both saltwater and freshwater trolling applications.
