FAQ
Pond baits, depth lines, drops and shipping.
What makes VOJTECH different?
Most baits are built for clear lakes. VOJTECH soft plastics are built for green, murky city ponds and bank anglers, with colors designed for how they should look at depth in stained water. More on the science →
SHALLOW or MID-DEPTH: which do I pick?
Pick by where the bait will spend its time. SHALLOW (0–4 ft) is for the bank, grass edges and the top few feet. MID-DEPTH (4–10 ft) is for the middle, the dam, drop-offs and the bottom. If you lose sight of your bait within a foot or two, try a MID-DEPTH color even shallow.
Why no deep line?
Most ponds are 10 feet or less, so two lines cover the water we design for.
What does “GREEN WATER” or “STAINED WATER” on a label mean?
It’s the water that colorway is designed for. Green is algae-tinted, and stained is tea-colored from tannins. Each colorway gets one depth and one water label, like MID-DEPTH · GREEN WATER.
Do you make baits for clear lakes?
Not yet. The Pond Series comes first. A lake series may come later.
Will these colors catch more fish?
We don’t claim that. Our colors are designed around published research on bass vision and pond-water light, which is design intent, not a catch guarantee. Studies show color is one factor among several, alongside depth, profile, vibration and fall. See the sources →
Are the colors UV or glow?
We don’t make UV or glow claims. The research we’ve read hasn’t shown that they matter for bass, so we focus on hue, contrast and depth instead.
What is a “drop”?
A limited release of VOJTECH soft plastics that goes live at a set date and time. Each colorway has a small run. When it sells through, it’s done.
When do drops happen?
Whenever a new run is ready. There’s no fixed schedule. The exact date and time (CT) goes to drop-alert subscribers first, then Instagram @vojtechfishlab.
How do I get notified?
Sign up for Drop Alerts.
What does SOLD OUT mean? Will it restock?
SOLD OUT means that colorway’s run is gone. Some colors return in a future drop and some are one-time runs. Drop alerts will tell you which.
Is something in my cart held for me?
No. Items aren’t reserved until checkout is complete, so check out quickly during a live drop.
Can I pre-order? Is there a limit?
No pre-orders right now. To keep it fair, there’s a limit of 3 packs per colorway per order.
When will my order ship? Where do you ship?
Orders ship from Dallas, TX within 2 business days. You’ll get a tracking email when it ships. We ship to U.S. addresses only. See Shipping & Returns.
What are the baits made of?
Hand-poured soft plastic, scented with our V-Garum scent.
