GPC HARDNOSE 180 Floating Stickbait

Guerilla Pluggers Collective – Hard Nose Stickbait
Handcrafted in Kanagawa, Japan

The Hard Nose Stickbait is one of the original and signature designs from Guerilla Pluggers Collective (GPC Lures) — a boutique Japanese maker known for handcrafting high-performance topwater plugs with meticulous detail.

Designed to float nose-up when at rest, the Hard Nose stickbait dives just beneath the surface with an enticing action that combines a wide, rolling body with a subtle tail kick. It delivers a lively, natural presentation that draws aggressive strikes, even with minimal rod work. This makes it exceptionally user-friendly and effective, regardless of the angler’s skill level.

Perfectly suited for a wide range of topwater predators including yellowtail kingfish, tuna, GT (giant trevally) and other reef-dwelling species, the Hard Nose is a must-have for any serious lure kit. Its unique swimming motion, premium craftsmanship, and proven fish-catching power make it a standout among topwater options.

• Handcrafted wooden body with high attention to finish

• Nose-up floating posture

• Easy to swim with minimal effort

• Wide roll and subtle tail kick action
