Designed to imitate a small baitfish or minnow, Burtek Tackle Primus Swimbaits feature a compact profile with multiple distinct actions that adapt to retrieve speed and rod movement. With subtle rod twitches, the Primus produces a tight, shimmering roll. Increase the cadence and it transitions into a unique hunting-style roll with just enough flash to draw attention. When worked aggressively, it delivers an erratic left-to-right hunting action that triggers reaction strikes.
Extremely versatile, the Primus excels as a Damiki rig or mid-strolling bait, while also performing exceptionally well as a bladed jig trailer, mini scrounger minnow, or drop shot presentation thanks to its subtle tail action. Proven under pressure, this bait earned its reputation as a tournament-winning prototype, helping secure victory at the 2025 Tennessee High School State Championship.
