Product Description
Sweep. Pause. Explode.
The Malosi Chieftain 150F is a buoyant floating stickbait built to ride high, glide long and draw eats you can see. Work smooth sweeps for an S-glide and rolling flash, then stall the lure to let it hang in the bubble trail. Lift the rod to walk it on the surface or drop the tip to skim just sub-surface through wash, reef edges and bait pushes. Ships unrigged so you can tune float posture and action with your hook choice.
- Float control: sits high and stable so you can keep it in the window through wind chop and wash.
- Glide • Flash • Hang: flat sides throw light on the burn, sweep into a long S-glide, then hang seductively on the pause.
- Weight-forward cast core: compact body rockets long and tracks straight for covering water fast.
- Multi-retrieve: sweep–pause, walk-the-dog with twitches, or skim sub-surface with a steady wind.
- Tune it your way: unrigged body accepts trebles, singles or mixed for dialing hookup rate vs. float posture.
Tip: use a loop knot and a higher rod angle to keep the Chieftain riding high; drop the tip to let it bite just under the skin.
The Chieftain is different to most traditional floating sticks in that it sits horizontal on the surface at rest and has a natural swim action built in. Requiring next to no effort, this stickbait can be fished all day with ease; sweep, pop or straight retrieve, the Chieftain will dig in just under the surface and swim seductively, even in chop or at heights where most traditional floating stickbaits cannot be used effectively.
Tailor action and float level to your fishery. For maximum glide and clean tracking, many anglers run a belly treble + tail single. Lighter hooks sit higher and “walk” easier; heavier sets dig a touch deeper and hold in wind.

Best retrieve for Chieftain 150F?
Sweep–pause to glide and hang, then add twitch–twitch to walk the lure on the surface. A steady wind will skim it just sub-surface when fish won’t fully breach.
How do I control running height?
Use rod angle and hook weight. Higher rod + lighter hooks keeps it on top; lower the tip or upsize hooks to make it bite just under the skin.
Ideal tackle?
Medium to medium-heavy spin (5–10 kg line class) with a supple leader and a loop knot for free action.
