Berkley Adds PowerBait Saltwater Glide Baits: HypnoGlide and Salt Block 2

The Berkley PowerBait Saltwater HypnoGlide and Salt Block give saltwater anglers two soft glide baits purpose-built for saltwater, with distinct profiles and swimming actions designed to match common forage and target trophy fish. The 8-inch HypnoGlide features a slimmer profile that mimics baitfish like ladyfish and creates a slow, smooth, hypnotic side-to-side glide, while the 6-inch Salt Block features a taller profile that imitates mullet and pilchards with a faster, tighter, more aggressive glide action. Both baits combine lifelike movement with the strength needed to handle powerful saltwater fish.

Built for durability, both designs feature line-through construction, saltwater-rated Fusion19 hooks, molded tails and a saltwater-specific PowerBait formula that fish bite and hold onto. Each bait features a convenient tie-and-go setup, pre-tuned for saltwater fishing and equipped with super-stout saltwater hooks rated for 50-pound pull strength. The molded tails also help preserve the bait’s body during battles with big fish, giving anglers added confidence when targeting hard-fighting saltwater species. The line-through design allows the body to move freely during the fight, helping protect the bait and making de-hooking easier.

“When targeting big saltwater species, anglers need baits that deliver the right action and hold up to the abuse,” said Will Pate, Product Manager – Saltwater Bait for Berkley. “The PowerBait Saltwater HypnoGlide offers a smooth, steady glide, while the PowerBait Saltwater Salt Block brings a faster, more aggressive swimming action. Both are built with Saltwater specific Powerbait formula to retain any bites while also carrying the strength and durability to give anglers the confidence to handle Saltwater fish.”
