LARVA PROFILE Ditch Devil A 1.9" floating fishfly-larva style bait with hellgrammite attitude—built for creek bass, trout, and panfish that hunt the bottom. What it is Introducing the Ditch Devil—a 1.9" soft plastic larva bait designed to revolutionize your creek fishing. These little dynamos are packed with attitude and precision, made to look like the real bottom-dweller fish can’t stop eating. Real-life detail While folks call it a hellgrammite, this profile is actually closer to a fishfly larva— the smaller, thinner cousin to the classic hellgrammite. That slimmer shape is money in clear water when fish want a more natural bite. Why it works Bottom-forage realism Pressured creek fish Hover on the pause Rock seams & pockets 8 per pack Floating advantage Crafted from a durable floating plastic, the Ditch Devil hovers and lifts on the pause, mimicking the natural “alive” posture of larvae as they cling and drift around rock and debris. Fish it Drift it through seams, dead-stick it in pockets, or hop it lightly along the bottom. Slow is the rule—let it sit and look edible.

When fish are glued to the bottom and the water’s clear, the Ditch Devil looks like something they’ve been eating their whole life. .cl-product-wrap{ max-width: 900px; margin: 0 auto; padding: 14px 0; font-family: inherit; } .cl-hero{ padding: 18px 18px 14px; border: 1px solid rgba(255,255,255,.14); background: rgba(0,0,0,.35); backdrop-filter: blur(6px); border-radius: 16px; box-shadow: 0 10px 24px rgba(0,0,0,.25); } .cl-kicker{ display: inline-block; font-weight: 700; letter-spacing: .12em; font-size: 12px; padding: 6px 10px; border-radius: 999px; border: 1px solid rgba(255,255,255,.18); background: rgba(0,0,0,.35); text-transform: uppercase; margin-bottom: 10px; } .cl-title{ margin: 0 0 6px; font-size: clamp(24px, 3.2vw, 34px); line-height: 1.12; } .cl-sub{ margin: 0; opacity: .92; font-size: 16px; line-height: 1.45; } .cl-grid{ display: grid; grid-template-columns: 1fr; gap: 14px; margin-top: 14px; } @media(min-width: 750px){ .cl-grid{ grid-template-columns: 1fr 1fr; } } .cl-card{ padding: 16px 16px 14px; border: 1px solid rgba(255,255,255,.14); background: rgba(0,0,0,.30); backdrop-filter: blur(6px); border-radius: 16px; box-shadow: 0 10px 24px rgba(0,0,0,.22); } .cl-card-wide{ margin-top: 14px; } .cl-card-title{ font-weight: 800; font-size: 15px; letter-spacing: .02em; margin-bottom: 8px; } .cl-card p{ margin: 0; line-height: 1.5; opacity: .95; } .cl-pill-row{ display: flex; flex-wrap: wrap; gap: 10px; margin-top: 10px; } .cl-pill{ display: inline-flex; align-items: center; padding: 8px 10px; border-radius: 999px; border: 1px solid rgba(255,255,255,.16); background: rgba(0,0,0,.28); font-size: 14px; line-height: 1; white-space: nowrap; } .cl-divider{ height: 1px; margin: 14px 0; background: rgba(255,255,255,.14); } .cl-two{ display: grid; grid-template-columns: 1fr; gap: 12px; } @media(min-width: 750px){ .cl-two{ grid-template-columns: 1fr 1fr; } } .cl-mini{ padding: 12px 12px 10px; border: 1px solid rgba(255,255,255,.12); border-radius: 14px; background: rgba(0,0,0,.22); } .cl-mini-title{ font-weight: 800; font-size: 13px; letter-spacing: .08em; text-transform: uppercase; margin-bottom: 6px; opacity: .95; } .cl-mini-text{ font-size: 14px; line-height: 1.4; opacity: .95; } .cl-link{ color: inherit; text-decoration: underline; text-underline-offset: 3px; } .cl-img-wrap{ border: 1px solid rgba(255,255,255,.12); border-radius: 14px; overflow: hidden; background: rgba(0,0,0,.20); } .cl-img-wrap img{ display: block; width: 100%; height: auto; } .cl-footer{ margin-top: 14px; padding: 16px 16px 14px; border-radius: 16px; border: 1px solid rgba(255,255,255,.14); background: linear-gradient(180deg, rgba(0,0,0,.34), rgba(0,0,0,.22)); backdrop-filter: blur(6px); box-shadow: 0 10px 24px rgba(0,0,0,.20); } .cl-footer-title{ font-weight: 900; letter-spacing: .06em; text-transform: uppercase; font-size: 12px; opacity: .95; margin-bottom: 8px; } .cl-footer-text{ margin: 0; line-height: 1.5; opacity: .95; }
