X Zone GBO 13mm Salted

Small Ball. Serious Results.

The X Zone GBO 13mm Salted is a compact, heavily salted soft plastic ball designed for ice fishing and open-water panfish presentations that demand the most natural, irresistible offering possible. Loaded with salt throughout, the GBO (Glow Ball Original) delivers a subtle, lifelike action on the drop and a taste fish simply won't let go of — making it one of the deadliest small-profile baits on the water.

Why the GBO 13mm Gets Bit

• Heavy Salt Content — Saturated with salt for a natural taste and texture that triggers feeding responses and keeps fish holding on through the hookset
• 13mm Compact Profile — The perfect size for targeting perch, crappie, bluegill, and walleye, especially when fish are keying on small forage
• Subtle, Natural Action — Soft, supple formula produces a gentle quiver and pulse on the drop that mimics live bait with every jigging stroke
• Versatile Application — Ideal tipped on a jig, ice fly, or drop-shot hook for both ice fishing and open-water finesse presentations
• Consistent Performance — Holds up through multiple fish and repeated strikes, delivering more bites per bait

How to Fish It

Tip your favourite ice jig or tungsten teardrop with the GBO 13mm and drop it into the strike zone — the salt load and soft texture do the rest. Deadstick it under a tip-up for suspended panfish, or give it subtle lifts and drops to trigger reaction strikes from perch and walleye. In open water, thread it onto a drop-shot hook or small jig head for a finesse presentation that out-fishes live bait on tough days.

When the fish are picky and the bite is slow, the X Zone GBO 13mm Salted is the secret weapon that fills the bucket.
