Heddon Magnum Hellbender
The legendary Hellbender has been probing the depths for anglers since late 1950s. Its distinctive big-lip design allows it to dive quickly and get very deep and allows it to roll off cover and structure, minimizing snags and triggering strikes when it rolls. It can be cast tight to steep banks and cranked down to the fish or trolled beside the same steep banks, parallel to drop-offs or through suspended baitfish. Trolled on a long flatline, a Hellbender can reach 35 feet. Over the years, Hellbenders have produced many state and world records for multiple species.
