Berkley PB Nessie, 1pk

The Berkley PowerBait Nessie is a soft-bodied glide bait built to give you big‑bait drawing power without the usual intimidation or learning curve of hard glide baits. The key takeaway: it’s a super‑forgiving, ultra‑realistic soft glide that you can skip, slide, or straight‑retrieve — and it’s designed to trigger big bass even when they’re pressured.

A soft‑plastic glide bait with a single joint reinforced by a mesh fabric, giving it the freedom of a hard glide but with a more fluid, natural swim. Berkley built it with Mike Iaconelli, and the whole idea is to make glide‑bait fishing accessible — while still giving advanced anglers a bait they can do sneaky things with (skipping, tight‑cover gliding, shallow creeping).

The Nessie is designed to be versatile, not just a slow‑glide bait.

It’s basically a big‑bait confidence builder. You get the drawing power of a glide bait, but it’s easier to fish, cheaper than most hard glides, and more forgiving when you make a mistake on the retrieve.
