The Fred Roumbanis Weedless Papa Boom Boom Swimbait features a quivering head action, tight body roll and thumping tail kick. It is designed to be fished slowly around cover with a weighted screw lock swimbait hook, where its “panic action” entices lurking fish into committing to strike the bait.
“When it comes to catching Big Bass, size does matter! If you ever want to see what lives under that dock roll this bad boy along the side and you will see. Big bass are curious by nature and a large baitfish will definitely get their attention. For best results, rig this on a 12/0 belly weighted Swimbait hook, 25lb fluorocarbon or 50lb braided line and a 7’6” or longer extra heavy 6 power rod.” – Professional Angler Fred Roumbanis
