FishUP Fancy Grub is a modern version of the classic curly tail soft bait designed for anglers who want stable action and a clear vibration signal in both rivers and still waters.
The key feature of Fancy Grub is its wide ribbed tail with additional cuts and cavities. This construction generates consistent movement even at slow retrieve speeds and creates strong water displacement that attracts predatory fish.
All baits are originally infused with a crayfish scent attractant.
The wide curly tail starts working immediately after entering the water. It produces stable and repetitive vibration during slow jigging as well as during faster retrieve.
The relatively bulky body improves visibility in stained water and increases selectivity when targeting larger perch or zander.
FishUP Fancy Grub is designed mainly for perch and zander fishing. Smaller sizes are perfect for light spinning and finesse approaches, while larger versions allow better fish selection.
It performs equally well in lakes, reservoirs and rivers where stable tail action is essential in current.
Use jig heads matched to depth and current to maximize the tail performance.
Choose Fancy Grub when fish are inactive or conditions are difficult, such as stained water, wind or stronger current. The wide tail generates a clear signal that helps fish locate the bait.
It is also a strong choice when you need a reliable curly tail bait with proven stability and added crayfish scent attraction.
