The Googan Baits Saucy Swimmer is a versatile paddle-tail swimbait designed to produce an irresistible, lifelike action that big bass can't ignore. Its inline ribs and boot-style tail work together to create a powerful, wobbling kick that displaces maximum water and perfectly mimics a fleeing baitfish. It's one of the most versatile paddle tail swimbaits you can throw for bass.

This highly adaptable bait can be rigged in countless ways, making it a staple in any angler's tackle box. Whether you're fishing it on a jig head in deep water, using it as a trailer on a vibrating jig, or rigging it weightless for a shallow-water presentation, the Saucy Swimmer's action and scent are guaranteed to get bites. Infused with our signature Slaunch Sauce, it's the perfect bait to convert those subtle bumps into aggressive hooksets.

Questions & Answers

Straight answers from the Squad on the Saucy Swimmer.

What is the Googan Baits Saucy Swimmer?

The Saucy Swimmer is a paddle tail swimbait built to look like a fleeing baitfish. Its inline ribs and boot-style tail create a strong wobbling kick at any retrieve speed, from a slow roll to a fast burn. It's infused with Slaunch Sauce scent and comes in 2.8", 3.3", 3.8" and 4.8" sizes, so you can fish it on its own or as a trailer.

How do you rig the Saucy Swimmer?

The most popular way is on a swimbait jig head for a steady retrieve or slow roll near the bottom. Rig it on a weighted swimbait hook to stay weedless around cover, or weightless for shallow water. It's also a top trailer for bladed jigs, swim jigs, spinnerbaits, underspins and A-rigs.

Which Saucy Swimmer size should I choose?

Use the 2.8" (9 per pack) and 3.3" (8 per pack) as trailers and on underspins or A-rigs, or when bass are feeding on small baitfish. The 3.8" (7 per pack) is a great all-around jig head swimbait. The 4.8" (6 per pack) has the biggest profile for targeting bigger bass.

What's the difference between the Saucy Slimmer and the Saucy Swimmer?

Both are paddle tail swimbaits with a boot-style tail and Slaunch Sauce scent. The Saucy Swimmer has a fuller body and comes in 2.8" to 4.8" sizes for a bigger thump. The Saucy Slimmer has a thinner, deeper body for a subtler, more natural look in clear water and for pressured fish, in 3.5" and 4" sizes.

Is the Saucy Swimmer a good swim jig and bladed jig trailer?

Yes. The boot-style tail kicks hard even at slow speeds, which adds thump and a baitfish profile to a swim jig, bladed jig or spinnerbait. Match the trailer size to your bait: smaller sizes for lighter jigs and bigger sizes for 1/2 oz and heavier.

What are the best Saucy Swimmer colors?

Match the baitfish in your lake. Shad colors like White Pearl Shad, Green Gizzard Shad, Electric Shad and Magic Shad are top choices in clear to lightly stained water. Goby is a great pick where bass feed on gobies. In muddy water or low light, Black gives the strongest silhouette.

When and where should I fish a paddle tail swimbait?

Paddle tail swimbaits like the Saucy Swimmer shine in the spring and fall, during the spawn, in warm water and on windy days when bass are chasing baitfish. Fish it in open water around schooling fish, along rocks and ledges, and past stumps with a steady retrieve, slow roll or burn.

How fast will my order ship?

Orders typically ship within 1–3 business days (excluding weekends and holidays), mainly via USPS, and you'll get a tracking email as soon as yours is on the way. U.S. orders over $99 ship free, and returns are free within 45 days.
