John Petroski a.k.a. Captain Castaic created C3 Baits 15 years ago when he saw a need for something different and something local for the hard pressured waters of the Clearwater reservoirs like Southern California's legendary Castaic Lake.
John hand pours the 5" C3 SlimPro, a 5-inch soft plastic stick bait with a slimmer profile designed to sink slower than other plastic baits for a gradual fall that gives fish more time to see and follow the bait.
The C3 SlimPro can be rigged multiple ways, with wacky rigging it being the most common and best performing method.
