The BlackTails are rubber lures designed to be screwed into the back part of the BlackBug, but they are also well suited to many other uses. Due to their different shapes, colors and sizes, they allow to change the swimming action, the color and the volume of the BlackBug, making it a highly changeable and adaptable lure.
Each BlackTail is designed to ensure a perfect action even at very low retrieve speeds. This makes the BlackBug extremely effective in any situation.

The BlackTails are available in seven different models and in a wide range of colors. They allow us to create countless combinations for the BlackBlugs.
This Blacktail allows to maintain a slim and tapered profile of our BlackBug. The Curly tail, doesn't produce much friction during the retrieve, and is particularly suitable for fishing in the lower layers of the water column. This tail, thanks to its sinuous action, produces very low vibrations and is able to stimulate the senses of the hunting predator.

The twin curly tail makes more resistance during the retrieve, allowing to keep the BlackBug in the higher layers of the water column, ideal for fishing over weed beds. The fat body and the position of the twin tails give to the Blackbug a more voluminous and compact appearance. This particular double tail produces a large number of low frequency vibrations. All these characteristics guarantee a greater stimulation for every predator.

The large size and profile of this paddle tail are producing a very aggressive and pronounced action. This BlackTail also manages to tranfer its action to the head of the BlackBug, making it more wobbling and attractive. The shape of the body, with a triangular section wider on the sides, produces more volume effect for the predator. This is especially crucial for pikes, whereas they usually attack their prey from below. This BlackTail produces also a high number of vibrations that strongly stimulate the aggressive reaction of each predator.

This innovative BlackTail design, produced in a single size, is able to quickly transform the BlackBug into a big bait. The main tail with a large profile has an extremely sinuous and eel-like movement, able to move perfectly even with super slow retrieve. The second tail, which is smaller, produces additional vibrations at different frequencies, adding the BlackBug a larger volume effect.
