Some days, pike just won’t commit. You can cover water, change spots, switch colours — and still get follows with no bites. That’s where small tweaks make a big difference.
The 3D LT Glide Roach is built for those tough sessions. Its realistic body shape, detailed 3D finish, and wide gliding action give predators something that looks and moves right. In clear water or on pressured venues, that extra realism can be the difference between a lazy follow and a proper strike.
Why the 3D LT Glide Roach Works
Pike are visual hunters. When they’re cautious or half-committed, unnatural movement or poor detail can put them off at the last second.
What makes this lure stand out:
-
Realistic 3D profile – looks like actual prey, not just “another lure”
-
Wide gliding action – hangs in the strike zone longer
-
Natural finish – especially deadly in clear or pressured water
-
Slow-speed effectiveness – perfect when fish are inactive
This lure doesn’t just swim well — it looks right in the water.
How to Fish It (Simple & Effective)
Keep it slow and controlled. This bait shines when you give pike time to think… then react.
-
Cast out and let it settle for a second
-
Retrieve slowly with a steady rhythm to get the wide glide
-
Add short pauses every few handle turns
-
If you see follows, slow down even more and pause longer
This is especially effective when pike are sitting mid-water or cruising edges and you want to keep the bait in front of them as long as possible.
When to Use the 3D LT Glide Roach
Glide baits really shine when fish aren’t fully committing:
-
✅ Cooler months
-
✅ “In-between” days when fish follow but won’t strike
-
✅ Clear water
-
✅ Pressured venues
-
✅ Spring & autumn when pike feed on roach and other natural prey
If you’ve been grinding away with no takes, tying on the 3D LT Glide Roach and slowing everything down can completely change your session.
