Longshank Spinnerbaits and Buzzbaits are named for their extra-long hook that eliminates the need for a trailer hook. But there’s much more to these unique lures than just their length.

Longshank Pro Staffer Gil Johnson explains the history and innovation behind these long lures.

Curt Arakawa fills us in on the details of what promises to be the next big finesse technique and shares a bit of Jackall Lure’s impressive history in tackle design.
