Smith Binturn 80S is a high-response lipless jerkbait designed for active twitching and precise control of lure action. Its key feature is a wide slide dart action, allowing the lure to perform long, smooth lateral movements that effectively imitate a disoriented or fleeing baitfish.
The lure can be worked with short, sharp jerks (short turn) as well as wider, rhythmic darting to cover more water. Binturn 80S reacts instantly to rod input, giving anglers full control over presentation and making it easier to adjust the action to fish activity.
The slow sinking, front-heavy design ensures a stable head-down fall, allowing accurate coverage of the sub-surface zone and precise depth control during retrieval. The specially shaped front improves feedback during twitching, reducing the “dead feel” often associated with lipless lures.
This model performs especially well in clear water and pressured fisheries, where fish tend to ignore standard lures. Its irregular action and versatile retrieve make it an effective choice for targeting pike, perch and asp in demanding conditions.
