Scroll Less. Stroll More. Meet the Berkley Doom Stroller
New Doom Stroller combines hard bait durability, improved casting control and natural minnow action for forward-facing sonar anglers.
COLUMBIA, S.C. – Minnow-style baits have become one of the most effective tools for targeting suspended bass with forward-facing sonar, but they don't come without compromises. Designed to evolve the technique, the new Berkley Doom Stroller combines hard bait durability with precision weighting, natural rolling action and improved hookup ratios. Purpose-built for today's forward-facing sonar angler, the Doom Stroller delivers a more consistent presentation while giving anglers another option for targeting pressured bass.
Unlike traditional soft plastic minnow rigs that often require constant bait changes and precise rigging, the Doom Stroller delivers a repeatable presentation cast after cast. A precision-tuned internal weighting system produces natural rolling action across a wide range of retrieve speeds, while the upward tail position imitates an isolated baitfish. Finished with a strategically positioned top treble hook to maximize hookups, the Doom Stroller gives anglers an easier-to-fish, more durable option without sacrificing the action that makes the technique so effective.
"The Doom Stroller was built to solve the biggest frustrations anglers face with traditional strolling techniques," said Nathan Ragsdale, Senior Product Manager – Freshwater Bait at Berkley. "By combining the durability of a hard bait with the natural action anglers expect from a minnow presentation, we've created a bait that's easier to fish, easier to cast with smaller presentations, performs consistently at any retrieve speed, and gives anglers the confidence to spend more time fishing and less time replacing torn plastics."
The Doom Stroller is offered in three sizes with application-specific sink rates to cover a wide range of fishing scenarios, along with 15 hand-selected color patterns to match forage across the country.
