Lucky Craft Pointer 128 — The Large-Format Jerkbait That Triggers Big Predators

The Pointer 128 is the flagship of Lucky Craft's Pointer series — a suspending jerkbait built for targeting pike, large perch, and other sizeable predators with precision and finesse.

Suspending Action That Holds the Strike Zone

At 28 g and 12.8 cm, the Pointer 128 casts with authority and reaches a running depth of up to 1.3 m. Once you pause the retrieve, it holds its position almost perfectly in the water column — hovering right in front of reluctant fish. This suspending behaviour is particularly effective in cold or post-frontal conditions when predators are sluggish and need a stationary target to commit to.

Rolling Action and Lateral Slide That Stimulate the Lateral Line

The Pointer 128's swimming action combines a tight rolling motion with a pronounced lateral slide on the twitch. That side-flash and subtle vibration directly stimulate the predator's lateral line, triggering reaction strikes even from inactive fish. The lure is intentionally quiet — no rattle — which makes it the go-to choice in clear water or heavily pressured venues where noise-shy fish have learned to avoid loud baits.

Choose the Right Colour

All variants share the same 12.8 cm / 28 g suspending setup and are retrieved with the same twitching technique. Colour selection is the key differentiator depending on water clarity, light conditions, and target species.

BE Gill — natural gill/perch-flank tones; versatile in stained to clear water for pike and large perch
Chartreuse Shad — high-visibility chartreuse; strong choice in coloured or murky water
Pearl Threadfin Shad — pearlescent shad imitation; excellent all-round clear-water colour
MS American Shad — natural shad colouration; effective in clear to lightly stained conditions
Laser Rainbow Trout — trout-imitating finish; ideal in trout-inhabited lakes and reservoirs targeting pike
Aurora Black — dark, silhouette-creating pattern; low-light, dawn, and overcast conditions
French Pearl OB — subtle pearl with olive back; calm, clear conditions in natural fisheries
Silver Cheek Chartreuse Shad — silver flanks with chartreuse accent; bright conditions or stained water
Silver Cheek Ghost Minnow — translucent silver; ultra-clear water and bright daylight
