The fishing community is buzzing about the new release of the Geecrack Gilling Neo 160F Hard Body Swimbait, now available in the U.S. This innovative product, weighing in at 1.87 ounces, comes equipped with a removable bill that enhances its versatility. Anglers can easily switch from a deep-diving crankbait to a jointed wakebait with just a simple configuration change.
"The Gilling Neo 160F is designed for maximum versatility," said a representative from Geecrack. “Whether you are fishing in shallow waters or looking to target depths up to six feet, this swimbait adapts to your needs.” With its robust construction, the swimbait is segmented into three distinct parts, enabling a natural swimming action that mimics real prey.

The Gilling Neo 160F’s floating design is particularly appealing. When the bill is intact, it can dive effectively, sinking up to six feet with a 16-pound fluorocarbon line. However, without the bill, it operates as an attractive wakebait—a favorite tactic among anglers targeting fish in shallow cover. Equipped with cushioned joints at the connecting segments, the Gilling Neo 160F operates silently, which is essential for drawing in wary fish, even in calm waters or pressured environments.
"Realistic paint schemes and swiveling hook hangers make this bait not only effective but also visually appealing to fish," emphasized the Geecrack spokesperson. Created with attention to detail, the Gilling Neo 160F is available in three distinct color options: Real Largemouth Bass, Real Pond Gill, and Shad.

Currently priced at $49.99, the Gilling Neo 160F is a must-have for anglers looking to enhance their swimbait collection. Stock levels are limited, with only a few units remaining in the popular color variants, such as Real Largemouth Bass.
For anglers hoping to upgrade their tackle, it’s recommended to act quickly, as the Gilling Neo series captures attention. "The addition of cushioned joints eliminates the problem of squeaking that can spook fish, making it a prime choice for tournament day," added the representative from Geecrack.

While many anglers are eager to get their hands on this product, shoppers should heed the product warning regarding California regulations. The swimbait reportedly contains chemicals that may pose health risks, mirroring the caution often found on various tackle products in the market today.
Offering the ability to easily transition between different fishing styles, the Geecrack Gilling Neo 160F promises to become a staple in many tackle boxes.
