7 Glide Baits that Imitate Clear Lake Hitch

Now that we’ve outlined many of the soft swimbait alternatives that mimic the Clear Lake Hitch, it’s probably time to go back and assess your hard bait options, too. Of course, many of the small-scale “garage” builders from the Left Coast have their own take on this particular baitfish, and many of them are deadly, but if you don’t have the budget or the appetite to wait on the drop, consider one of the following seven options available at Tackle Warehouse – and don’t sleep on the fact that they work on other lakes besides Clear.
