Which Pointer B'Freeze size should I choose, 65 mm or 100 mm?

The 65 mm (5 g) is made for freshwater, mainly perch and trout. The 100 mm (16.5 g) works as well in saltwater as in freshwater, on sea bass, pike or zander. There is also an SW version of the 100 mm, fitted with different hooks. If you're unsure, look at the size of the baitfish at your spot.

How do you work a suspending jerkbait like the Pointer B'Freeze?

Suspending means the lure neither sinks nor floats up when you stop retrieving. You work it with short rod-tip twitches, then leave pauses. Thanks to its very low centre of gravity, it keeps vibrating and oscillating at rest, and that's often when the fish makes up its mind.

Our take on the Pointer B'Freeze

A true classic, and it's easy to see why. The Pointer B'Freeze swings from side to side at the slightest twitch and keeps vibrating when you leave it hanging. On wary fish, that changes everything!

A jerkbait that works even at rest

The swim of a wounded fish, even on the pause

You work it with short rod-tip twitches, and it darts from side to side like a wounded or dying fish. And when you stop everything? Its very low centre of gravity keeps it vibrating and oscillating on the spot. The lure hangs in the water column, ready to trigger a bite.

A typical session stays simple:

Two or three sharp twitches of the rod tip to start the swim
A pause of a few seconds, the lure stays put
Start again, varying the length of the pauses to match fish activity

65 mm or 100 mm, which Pointer to pick?

The 65 mm (5 g) is made for freshwater, mainly perch and trout. Chub and black bass will also take it. It casts easily and swims at 1 m.

The 100 mm (16.5 g) swims at 1.30 m. It is as effective in saltwater as in freshwater, on sea bass, pike, zander or black bass. There is also an SW version of this size, fitted with different hooks.

As for colours, you'll easily find the one that matches your local baitfish, from Ghost Minnow or BE Gill in 100 mm to Brown Trout in 65 mm. A real classic!
