The brainchild of professional angler and early swimbait adopter, Fred Roumbanis, the Optimum Boom Boom ” Weedless Swimbait is modeled after a discontinued swimbait that has cashed multiple big checks on the BASS Elite Series. Thoroughly researched and developed to replicate the tight vibration of a shad, the Optimum Boom Boom ” Weedless Swimbait borrows elements of design from several of Optimum’s premium swimbaits and combines them into one trophy-catching package.
Fitted with pectoral and anal fins to help reduce rolling at high speeds, the Optimum Boom Boom ” Weedless Swimbait utilizes the wide frame of the Bubba Shad, but in a slightly smaller, 6-inch design. Built with the original Optimum face, the Optimum Boom Boom 6” Weedless Swimbait features a ribbed boot tail that produces a mean tail kick and a wide, yet controlled body roll at various retrieves.
Designed to be fished slowly around cover with a weighted screw lock swimbait hook, the Optimum Boom Boom ” Weedless Swimbait delivers a signature “panic action” which entices lurking fish into striking the bait. To put it simply, the Optimum Boom Boom 6” Weedless Swimbait is one killer chunk of plastic.
“As a touring pro angler, I know the importance of ‘one big bite.’ Why not use a bait that produces several big bites a day? our goal at Optimum Baits is to create the ultimate tournament-approved swimbait that works from coast-to-coast.” – Elite Series Angler Fred Roumbanis
