Northland® Fishing Tackle blankets the field with a brilliant array of new baits.
|
BEMIDJI, Minn. (July 18, 2023) – While some manufacturers have tapped, even slammed on the product development brakes, Northland is pushing the pedal to the metal. The economy is tough, so now more than ever, Northland’s commitment to stimulating angler excitement is needed.
For 2024, Northland proudly introduces an exceptional collection of intelligently designed lures for a multitude of species. Here’s a look under the hood…
|
Pitchin’ Puppet
For years anglers have been using vertical jigging lures like the Northland Puppet Minnow® for casting, and with great success. Now, Northland has designed a bait specifically for the job. The Pitchin’ Puppet features a lead frame with an over-molded resin exterior and fin, giving it a lifelike translucent baitfish appearance with exceptional durability. When jigged, snapped, or ripped, the Pitchin’ Puppet darts and rolls to trigger strikes. A wide-gap rear hook – and absence of a front hook – make this lure perfect for darting across the bottom, and the split-ring connected treble hook will keep fish pinned all the way back to the boat.
- Over-molded resin body and tail that’s extremely durable
- Baitfish profile
- Wide-gap rear hook for better hooking percentages
- Cast and retrieve or vertically jig to create a darting action like a dying minnow
- 15 Colors
- SIZES: 2-inch (5/16 oz.), 2-3/8-inch (5/8 oz.) and 2-3/4-inch (1 oz.)
MSRP $9.99

On the back end, the Tungsten Crappie King Jig features an ultra-sharp, perfectly proportioned hook crafted for the delicate mouths of panfish.

Tungsten Flat-Fry Fly
This feathered-friend hangs at a 90-degree angle to imitate fry-sized fish, a favorite forage of perch, bluegills, and crappies. Real feather hackle adds to the illusion of a swimming fry.

Its flat top and tungsten material reflect sonar signals.

ABOUT Northland® Fishing Tackle
In 1975, a young Northwoods fishing guide named John Peterson started pouring jigs and tying tackle for his clients in a small remote cabin in northern Minnesota. The lures were innovative, made with high quality components, and most importantly, were catching fish when no other baits were working! Word spread like wildfire, the phone started ringing… and the Northland Fishing Tackle® brand was in hot demand! For 40 years now, John and the Northland® team have been designing, testing and perfecting an exclusive line of products that catch fish like no other brand on the market today. Manufactured in the heart of Minnesota’s finest fishing waters, Northland® is one of the country’s leading producers of premium quality jigs, live bait rigs, spinnerbaits and spoons for crappies, bluegills, perch, walleyes, bass, trout, northern pike and muskies.

ABOUT Bagley Bait Company
The personality of any company comes from its founder. Jim Bagley was an inventive, fun-loving, passionate fisherman who became one the most respected legends in the fishing tackle industry. In late 2010, Jarmo Rapala and a group of investors bought Bagley Bait Company. As an admirer of Jim Bagley for his attention to quality and of his product ingenuity and innovation, Jarmo initiated significant changes in operations, enhanced production processes and quality control. Now in 2020, Northland® Fishing Tackle, along with Jarmo as its Chief Lure Designer, maintain the legacy of creating premium balsa crankbaits and topwater lures, as well as jigs and spoons for both freshwater and saltwater anglers.
