Designed to solve the challenges of casting big jointed swimbaits, the Shimano Armajoint 190SF Swimbait leverages Shimano’s proprietary ARMA BOOST technology to vastly improve casting distance and accuracy. As the angler casts the lure, an internal magnet forces the body to fold into a compact shape to reduce the chances of the lure spinning during flight and lessen air resistance. Once the Armajoint hits the water, the lure body reengages with the internal magnet to create smooth and natural swimming action with slow-floating action.

The Armajoint Swimbait will normally swim in an S-pattern, but the bait will not flare out when stopped due to the unique fold in its body. Shimano’s proprietary FLASH BOOST technology constantly emits a fish-attracting flash during the retrieve and on the pause by suspending a reflective foil on micro springs to mimic the flashing behavior of an injured baitfish. Purpose-built to improve angler performance and draw strikes from tournament-winning bass, the Shimano Armajoint 190SF Swimbait is a versatile lure that allows anglers to vary the retrieve depending on the situation or mood of the fish.
