Shimano Armajoint 190SS

The Shimano Armajoint 190SS is built to make big, jointed swimbaits behave in the air and in the water. Shimano’s ARMA Boost uses an internal magnet to fold the body into a compact shape on the cast, cutting air resistance and reducing mid-flight spin for longer, truer deliveries.

Once it hits, the body reengages for a smooth, natural swim with a slow-sinking posture—handy for working deeper lanes without rushing the bait. The Shimano Armajoint 190SS tracks in a steady S-pattern, and the unique fold keeps it from flaring wide on the stop, so pauses stay controlled around edges, points, and over deeper grass. FLASH BOOST keeps a consistent baitfish flash both on the retrieve and when you hang it in a pause.

When & Where It Shines

• Covers water efficiently with a natural S-swim, thanks to the multi-joint body that stays composed on straight retrieves.
• Keeps your pauses tight and believable, thanks to the fold design that resists flaring out when stopped.
• Reaches more targets with fewer wasted casts, thanks to ARMA Boost folding the Shimano Armajoint 190SS into a compact, stable flight profile.
• Maintains strike-triggering flash through the entire cadence, thanks to FLASH BOOST foil suspended on micro springs.
• Works as a true bass swimbait for deeper water-column lanes, thanks to a balanced slow-sink that suits pull-and-pause or steady wind retrieves.
