Recessed groove in the top of the lure?s back conceals the hook's point. Strategically placed holes in nose and throat, and slots on belly and back allows the Magic swimmer soft to slide on the leader making for a more durable bait. Orienting the weight on the hook in the forward position allows for the bait to fall with an angled descent. Orienting the weight on the hook in the rear position allows for the bait to fall with level descent.
