Grumpy Baby Goby was introduced to the Great Lakes due to the explosion of the invasive species - Round Goby.  Walleye, Smallmouth Bass, Yellow Perch, Lake Trout and even Steelhead have made Round Goby a staple part of their diets.  Recognizing this, our field team designed three goby baits to address various conditions and species demands.  All three are individually hand-poured. Baby Goby has become a major bait in the Great Lakes region including Lake St. Clair and Lake Simcoe even during the ice fishing season.  This bait smashes waterbodies infested with Goby - try them and catch more fish!

  • Small goby design is ideal even when fish are in a negative feed state
  • Exaggerated head size makes the bait more durable
  • Signature Grumpy face seduces fish into an aggressive, dominant strike
  • Flat-bottom design ensures Grumpy Baby Goby remains right-side up
  • Each bait is unique and individually hand-poured
  • Loaded with our signature HAMMER JUICE
  • Loaded with hand-ground, sea salt so fish hang on longer
  • 6 pieces per bag
