Livingston Lures Banshee | EBS Crankbait/Jerkbait for Musky and Pike

Wide Wobble with an Adjustable Pause Presentation

Designed by musky and pike specialist Steven Paul, the Livingston Lures Banshee combines crankbait action with twitch-and-pause jerkbait versatility. Its wide wobble works for casting or trolling, while a removable weighting system lets you experiment with different rise rates and a hovering presentation on the pause.

When a fish follows without committing, change the pace instead of simply speeding through the cast. Sweep or twitch the Banshee, then pause to let its adjusted buoyancy shape the presentation. EBS Technology adds Electronic Baitfish Sound, with Shad or Perch sound profiles listed by color variant.

Key Features

• Steven Paul-designed crankbait/jerkbait for musky and pike.
• Wide-wobbling action for casting and trolling.
• Removable weighting system for adjusting rise rate and pause behavior.
• Supports straight retrieves, rod sweeps, and twitch-stop sequences.
• EBS baitfish sound technology.

How to Fish It

Start with a straight retrieve to explore the Banshee's wobble, then mix in rod sweeps or a twitch-pause sequence. Test each weight configuration beside the boat to check its rise or hover behavior before fishing it around cover or following fish.

Steven Paul pro tip: Experiment with weight configurations until you get the rise rate you want. In cold water or when fish follow without striking, try longer pauses to give them time to react to the hovering bait and its EBS sounds.
