Duo Bay Ruf Seek Heavy 85s

DUO Bay RUF Seek Heavy 85 20g

The DUO Bay RUF Seek Heavy 85HW is a heavy-weight sinking pencil designed for long-distance casting and precise control in difficult saltwater conditions. Measuring 85mm and weighing 20g, it combines a compact baitfish profile with the casting power needed to reach distant feeding zones.

The Seek's signature “Seek Slide” action is created by its carefully balanced horizontal swimming posture. As the lure encounters changes in current or retrieve direction, it produces an unpredictable lateral sliding movement that mimics a baitfish changing course and can trigger aggressive strikes from predators such as sea bass.

The 85HW was specifically developed to improve casting distance compared with the standard Seek 85. Its heavier weight helps it punch through strong headwinds, reach offshore feeding areas and maintain control in strong currents and rough conditions.

Recommended Techniques

The Bay RUF Seek Heavy 85 is extremely versatile. Use it with a steady retrieve, drift, twitching or jerk-and-pause presentation. Changes in retrieve speed and current can produce the Seek Slide action, allowing you to cover different areas of the water column.

The 20g weight makes the 85HW particularly effective when you need extra casting distance or better control in rough conditions, while its compact 8.5cm profile remains ideal when predators are feeding on smaller baitfish.

Perfect for targeting sea bass, bluefish, bonito and other aggressive saltwater predators from rocky shores, beaches, breakwaters and other coastal areas.
