Okuma Psycho Stick L 1.98m 3-10g is a 2025 novelty and one of the most technologically advanced spinning rod series from Okuma. Designed for light spinning enthusiasts, this rod combines a high-modulus 30T carbon fibre construction with a remarkably lightweight and sensitive blank, delivering both strength and responsiveness in a single package.

The 30T carbon fibre blank is the heart of the Psycho Stick. This high-modulus material allows Okuma to build a rod that is exceptionally light in the hand while retaining the backbone needed to handle spirited predatory fish. The result is a blank that transmits even the faintest taps and knocks directly to your hand, so you can react instantly to tentative takes.

Fitted throughout are Okuma U1 guides. These guides are engineered to promote smooth line flow during the cast and retrieve, helping to reduce friction and line wear. The U1 guide system also contributes to the rod's overall durability, making it a reliable choice for regular sessions on the bank or boat.

The short rear handle section is a deliberate design choice that enhances the rod's balance and feel. By keeping the rear grip compact, Okuma has created a rod that sits comfortably in the hand and allows you to feel not only the bite but also the full action of your lure as it works through the water. This direct connection between angler and lure is particularly valuable when fishing with small, subtle presentations.

Thanks to its balanced and lightweight blank, the Psycho Stick L is comfortable to fish with for extended periods. Fatigue is minimised, which means you can stay focused and keep casting accurately throughout a long session. The solid tip plays a key role here: it transmits even the slightest bites with clarity and absorbs the shock of sudden lunges, helping to protect fine lines and small hooks.

This is a fast action, light-type spinning rod ideally suited to fishing with small wobblers, soft plastics and spinners. It is a natural match for targeting trout, chub, perch and other predatory fish in rivers, streams and stillwaters where finesse and accuracy matter more than raw power.

Okuma Psycho Stick UL 1.98m 0.5-3.5g is a 2025 novelty and one of the most technologically advanced spinning rod series from Okuma. Designed for ultra-light anglers who demand sensitivity, balance and control, this rod brings together a high-modulus 30T carbon blank with Okuma U1 guides to deliver a refined fishing experience.

The high-modulus 30T carbon fibre construction keeps the blank exceptionally light while providing impressive strength and responsiveness. This translates into a rod that feels lively in the hand and transmits even the faintest bites, making it ideal for perch and other predatory fish where bite detection is crucial.

Okuma U1 guides are fitted throughout to ensure smooth line flow and long-lasting performance. These guides help reduce friction during casting and retrieving, which supports accurate lure presentation and consistent control, especially when working small lures.

The short rear handle section is a deliberate design choice that enhances feedback. It allows you to feel not only the moment a fish takes the lure but also the full action of the lure as it moves through the water. This direct connection between hand and lure is particularly valuable in ultra-light fishing, where subtle vibrations and changes in resistance often signal a take.

Thanks to its balanced and lightweight blank, the Psycho Stick UL is comfortable to fish with for extended sessions. Fatigue is minimised, so you can stay focused on working your lure and covering water efficiently, whether you are fishing from a boat or from the bank.

The rod features a solid tip that excels at transmitting even the slightest bites and effectively absorbs shocks. This solid tip design is especially useful when fishing with small soft plastics, jigs or micro lures, as it helps maintain contact with the lure and cushions sudden lunges from hooked fish.

With an extra fast action and an ultra-light rating, this spinning rod is ideally suited to boat fishing for perch and other predatory species. The extra fast taper means the rod bends mostly in the upper section, providing quick hook sets and precise lure control, while the ultra-light casting weight range of 0.5-3.5g allows you to present very small lures effectively.

Whether you are targeting perch with micro jigs, small spinners or lightweight soft baits, the Okuma Psycho Stick UL offers the sensitivity, balance and control that discerning ultra-light anglers look for in a modern spinning rod.

Jackall Timon Panicra SR-SS is a high-quality slow sinking lure from the Japanese manufacturer Jackall, designed to tempt a wide range of predatory fish including chub, trout, perch and other predators. Its compact, teardrop-shaped body and wide lip produce a stable, lively action in the water, making it a versatile choice for both still and moving water.

The slow sinking (SR-SS) construction allows the lure to sink gradually through the water column, which is ideal for working the middle layers and for tempting fish that are following but not committing. The wide lip generates a strong, active wobble that remains stable even when the lure is retrieved quickly or fished in a strong current.

Thanks to its aerodynamic profile, the Panicra casts long and accurately, helping you reach fish that are holding away from the bank or in hard-to-reach pockets. At just 25 mm and 1.5 g, it is a true micro lure that appeals to pressured fish and can be fished on light tackle for maximum sport.

The lure is available in a range of proven Jackall colours, including Tackey Brown, Endo Pumpkin, Endo Glow Pelle Pum, Kado Pin Glow, Shine Bor, Shobokure Red Glow, Yazy Perfect Olive, Yazy Perfect Brown, Tackey Ghost Pellet and Shobokure Glow. This selection covers natural, baitfish and glow patterns, giving you options for clear water, low light and coloured water conditions.

Jackall Timon Panicra DR-SS is a high-quality slow-sinking lure from the renowned Japanese manufacturer Jackall, designed to tempt a wide range of predatory fish including chub, trout, perch and other species. Its compact, teardrop-shaped body and wide lip produce a stable, active swimming action that performs reliably in still water, strong currents and when retrieved quickly.

The slow-sinking (SS) construction allows the lure to sink gradually through the water column, making it ideal for working different depths and triggering bites from fish that are hesitant to chase fast-moving baits. The aerodynamic profile ensures long, accurate casts, even in windy conditions.

With a length of just 25 mm and a weight of 1.6 g, the Panicra DR-SS is a true micro lure that excels on light and ultralight tackle. It is particularly effective for trout and chub in streams and small rivers, as well as perch in lakes and ponds. The wide lip creates a pronounced wobbling action that fish find irresistible.

Jackall Timon Panicra MR 32F is a high-quality floating lure from the Japanese manufacturer Jackall, designed to catch a wide range of predatory fish including chub, trout, perch and other species. Its compact, teardrop-shaped body and wide lip produce a stable, active swimming action that performs well in still water, strong currents and when retrieved quickly. The aerodynamic design also supports long, accurate casts.

The Timon Panicra MR is a floating (F) lure measuring 32 mm and weighing 3.3 g. It dives to approximately 1.5 m, allowing it to work effectively in the upper and mid-water layers. The wide lip generates a lively wobbling action that triggers aggressive strikes, while the floating buoyancy helps the lure rise on the pause, a technique that often provokes follows and takes from curious predators.

Built in Japan, this lure benefits from Jackall's renowned attention to detail and finish. The compact profile makes it an excellent choice for light spinning and finesse presentations, particularly when targeting pressured fish in clear water. It is equally at home in small streams, rivers and lakes where accurate casting and natural presentation are essential.

Jackall Timon Pepino DR 56F 2.5g is a high-quality floating lure from the Japanese brand Jackall, developed for demanding predator anglers. With a compact 56 mm body and a weight of just 2.5 g, it is a finesse hard bait aimed at perch, pike and trout, and it performs particularly well when fish are pressured or feeding selectively.

The lure features a flat-sided body profile combined with an original balancing system. This design helps the bait hold a stable attitude in strong current and supports long, accurate casts for its low weight. The flat flanks also produce a subtle, rolling flash that mimics the flank of a fleeing baitfish, which is often what triggers a following predator to commit.

Rigged as a floating (F) lure, the Pepino DR 56F works effectively on both a steady straight retrieve and a light twitching action. On a constant retrieve it swims with a tight, natural wobble; on twitches it darts and pauses, imitating a wounded or disorientated fish. This versatility makes it a useful search bait when you need to find out how the fish want the lure presented on the day.

With a stated diving depth of 1.5–2 m, the lure is suited to working the mid-water column — over weed beds, along drop-offs, around submerged structure and in flowing water where a shallow-running bait would be lifted out of the strike zone. Its floating construction also means it can be paused over snags and shallow cover, then twitched back into action.

The Pepino DR 56F is available in a range of proven Jackall colourways, including Tackey Tropical Glow, Sugar Spot, Tackey Brown/Orange, Masa No Dokuringo, Yazy Bondz, Rum Raisin, Keiko Green, Keiko Pink, Itokatsu Honey Lemon Zuv, Shobokure Glow/Pumpkin, Shimashima Glow and Tackey Glow/Brown. Several of these finishes incorporate glow or UV-reactive pigments, which can be an advantage in low light, coloured water or when fishing deep.

Typical applications include light spinning for perch on rivers and canals, pike fishing around weed and structure, and trout fishing in streams and stillwaters where a compact, natural-looking hard bait is required. The 2.5 g weight keeps the lure fishable on light spinning tackle, making it a good match for a light rod and a small fixed-spool reel.

Jackall Timon Pepino SR 56F is a high-quality floating lure from the Japanese brand Jackall, designed for demanding freshwater predators such as perch, pike and trout. Its flat-sided body and original balancing system allow it to hold a stable position even in strong current, while also supporting long, accurate casts.

The 56 mm, 2.2 g body is compact yet heavy enough for controlled casting with light spinning tackle. The floating buoyancy means the lure stays on the surface on the pause, making it easy to work over shallow cover, along weed edges and in the upper layers where predators actively hunt.

The Pepino SR performs well with a steady retrieve as well as with light twitching. The flat profile and internal balance give it a tight, natural wobble that imitates a small baitfish, which can trigger strikes even from cautious fish. The diving depth of up to 0.8 m keeps the lure in the productive shallow zone without constantly snagging the bottom.

This is a versatile hard bait for light spinning and finesse approaches. It suits small rivers, streams, canals and shallow areas of lakes where perch, pike and trout are the main targets. The range of available colours allows you to match different water clarity, light conditions and natural forage.

Jackall Timon Pepino MR-SS is a high-quality slow-sinking minnow lure from the Japanese brand Jackall, designed for demanding predator fishing. With its flat-sided body and original balancing system, it holds a stable attitude even in strong current and delivers long, accurate casts.

The 56 mm, 2.6 g body sinks slowly through the water column, making it ideal for working the 0.8–1.5 m zone where perch, pike and trout often hunt. The flat profile creates a subtle, natural flash that mimics a fleeing baitfish without spooking pressured fish.

Retrieve the Pepino MR-SS with a steady winding action for a tight, rolling wobble, or add light twitches to make it dart and pause enticingly. The slow-sinking nature lets you count the lure down to the required depth and then work it through the strike zone with full control.

Built in Japan to Jackall's exacting standards, the lure features a durable finish and sharp, reliable trebles. It is equally at home in rivers, canals and stillwaters, and is a strong choice for light spinning and finesse predator tactics.

YAMATOYO Game is a thin braided fishing line that represents outstanding value for money from one of Japan's most respected line manufacturers. This 150 m spool is available in 0.2PE, 0.25PE and 0.3PE ratings, making it an excellent choice for anglers who want to explore ultralight fishing without spending a fortune on their first braid.

The line is built from 4 strands of PE fibre, giving it a smooth, round profile that casts cleanly through small guides and sits neatly on the spool. The fine diameters — from just 0.074 mm at 0.2PE up to 0.09 mm at 0.3PE — allow even the smallest lures to be presented naturally, which is exactly what light game and micro-fishing demand.

With breaking strains of 3.8 lb (1.7 kg) at 0.2PE, 5 lb (2.2 kg) at 0.25PE and 6 lb (2.7 kg) at 0.3PE, the Game braid offers a sensible balance between finesse and fish-playing security. The low stretch of PE construction helps transmit every tap and knock from the lure directly back to the rod tip, so bites are easier to detect and hook sets are more positive.

This line is particularly well suited to LRF (light rock fishing), XUL (extra ultralight) and Nano style spinning, where delicate presentations and long, accurate casts with tiny lures are the order of the day. It also works well for drop-shotting, micro-jigging and other finesse approaches in both fresh and salt water.

The white colour improves visibility above the water, which is helpful when you need to watch the line for subtle takes or monitor the angle of your retrieve. The 150 m spool length is generous enough for a couple of reel fills on typical ultralight reels, or one fill with plenty of backing.

If you are new to braid and want a reliable, affordable entry point from a Japanese brand, or you are an experienced angler looking for a cost-effective line for your ultralight setups, the YAMATOYO Game braid is a practical and dependable choice.

YGK Upgrade X-Braid x8 is a high-performance 8-strand braided fishing line manufactured in Japan, designed for anglers who demand superior sensitivity, durability and casting performance. The line features a bright green colour for excellent visibility and a firmer braid construction that maintains a round profile.

The 8-carrier braiding creates a smooth, round line with a tight weave that resists abrasion and delivers exceptional knot strength. This construction also minimises water absorption, helping the line retain its properties during long sessions. The line has virtually no memory, so it stays supple and manageable, reducing coils and wind knots even in challenging conditions.

Thanks to its low stretch and high sensitivity, the YGK Upgrade X-Braid x8 transmits even the slightest bites and changes in bottom composition directly to the rod tip. This makes it an excellent choice for finesse techniques and working lightweight lures, where feeling the lure's action is critical. The line is also very quiet through the guides, reducing noise that can spook wary fish.

The water-repellent finish helps the line shed water quickly, maintaining a consistent diameter and performance. The firm braid and round profile contribute to smooth, long casts with minimal friction, while the high abrasion resistance ensures reliability around rocks, mussel beds and other abrasive structures.

Available in multiple diameters, the YGK Upgrade X-Braid x8 allows anglers to fine-tune their setup for different target species and fishing styles. The line is suitable for a wide range of applications, including spinning, light jigging, drop shotting and other finesse techniques in both freshwater and saltwater environments.

Toxic Irony 20g is a handmade Latvian spinning lure developed specifically for targeting salmon and sea trout. Built by hand in small batches, it combines a compact 65 mm profile with a 20 g weight, giving it the density and balance needed to work effectively in flowing water.

The lure is designed to perform with a unique, flawless action in the current. Rather than tumbling or losing its movement in fast water, it holds a stable, controlled presentation that anglers can read and work with confidence. This makes it a practical choice for rivers and streams where current speed changes constantly across the swim.

At 20 g and 65 mm, the Toxic Irony sits in a versatile middle range. It is heavy enough to cast accurately and to reach fish holding in deeper or faster sections, yet compact enough to imitate the small baitfish and fry that salmon and sea trout feed on. The slim body profile helps it cut through current without excessive drag.

The colour range is a standout feature. Toxic Irony is offered in a wide selection of finishes, allowing anglers to match the lure to water clarity, light conditions and the mood of the fish. From bright, high-visibility patterns for coloured or turbulent water to more natural tones for clear, low-water conditions, the range covers a broad spread of fishing situations.

Because each lure is handmade, attention to detail in the finish and assembly is central to the product. This is a lure aimed at anglers who value craftsmanship and want a dependable, well-balanced spinner for serious salmon and sea trout work.

Available variants: supplied in a range of colour options (colour numbers 1–12 as listed).

Toxic Irony 16g is a handcrafted Latvian spinning lure built specifically for salmon and sea trout fishing. Each lure is made by hand, giving it a distinctive finish and a level of detail that mass-produced spoons rarely match. At 16 g and 65 mm, it sits in a versatile middleweight class that suits both river and coastal spinning.

The handmade construction is central to the Toxic Irony's character. Because each lure is assembled individually, the finish and colour work are applied with care, producing the broad and attractive colour range that this series is known for. The result is a lure that not only looks the part but also tracks reliably when worked through moving water.

Its standout quality is its performance in current. The Toxic Irony holds a clean, stable action in flowing water, allowing it to be fished across a range of speeds without losing its presentation. This makes it well suited to the strong currents found in salmon and sea trout rivers, where a lure must stay balanced and readable to the fish.

Weighing 16 g, the lure casts comfortably on typical salmon and sea trout spinning outfits and can be worked at distance or close in. The 65 mm body length gives a compact profile that appeals to migratory fish while remaining easy to cast accurately into likely holding spots.

The Toxic Irony is available in a wide selection of colours, covering a range of conditions from clear water to coloured or low-light situations. This variety lets anglers match the lure to the day's conditions and to the preferences of the fish they are targeting.

In practice, the Toxic Irony is a natural choice for salmon and sea trout spinning on rivers and along the coast. Its combination of handcrafted quality, stable action in current and broad colour choice makes it a dependable addition to a migratory fish lure box.

The long shoulder strap allows the bag to be carried comfortably over the shoulder, leaving both hands free for casting, landing fish or moving along the bank. This makes the bag a sensible choice for anglers who cover a lot of ground and prefer to travel light without leaving important tackle behind.

With external dimensions of 33 x 24 x 22 cm, the bag offers a useful balance between capacity and portability. It is large enough to hold a serious selection of lures and accessories, yet compact enough to carry on a shoulder without becoming a burden during a full day on the water.

The Pro FL Spinning Bag is aimed at lure anglers who want a tidy, reliable and easy-to-carry storage solution. Its combination of a main compartment with four boxes, multiple external pockets and a shoulder strap makes it a practical companion for spinning sessions on rivers, canals, lakes and reservoirs.

Jackall Chubby 41F Silent LT is one of the best-known and most respected lures for chub fishing, and this Silent LT version has been finished in colours developed specifically for the Lithuanian market. Made by the Japanese manufacturer Jackall, it belongs to a range of spinning lures recognised for their impeccable build quality and consistent performance.

The Chubby 41F is a compact floating crankbait with a rounded, streamlined body. At just 41 mm long and 5.3 g in weight, it casts remarkably well for its size, which makes it a practical choice when you need to cover water and reach fish holding away from the bank. The compact profile also suits light spinning tackle and allows accurate presentation around structure.

This is the Silent version: there is no rattle inside the body, so the lure is completely quiet in the water. That can be a genuine advantage when fish are pressured or wary, allowing a more subtle presentation without the additional noise of an internal rattle chamber.

The 41F is very stable in current. Even when retrieved through fast, turbulent water, it holds its line without rolling over or losing its action, so you can fish it confidently in flowing rivers as well as still waters. Its running depth of approximately 0.6–1 m keeps it in the productive upper layer where chub and other predators actively feed.

The colour range is natural and imitates the small insects and bugs that form a favourite part of the chub's diet. This makes the Chubby 41F a convincing imitation in clear water and in daylight, while the various finishes cover different light conditions and water colours.

Although it is strongly associated with chub, the Jackall Chubby 41F Silent LT is a versatile lure that also tempts pike, perch and other predatory fish. It is a useful addition to a light spinning or ultralight lure box for rivers, streams and smaller still waters.

Available colours: Red Wasp, RT May Bug Green, CT Pellet 1GOU, SK Low-Light Special, RT May Bug Brown, RT Moon of Jupiter, Gill Lemonade, Old Oil, Yazy Zone, Yazy Armor.

Jackall Chubby 41F SSR Silent LT is one of the best and most renowned lures for chub fishing. The colour range for this model was developed specifically for the Lithuanian market, reflecting the local forage and water conditions that chub encounter. Japanese manufacturer Jackall is known for its impeccably made spinning lures, and the Chubby family has earned a strong following among anglers who target wary fish in rivers and streams.

The Chubby 41F SSR Silent LT weighs 5.5 g and features a compact, rounded body that casts remarkably well for its size. The SSR designation indicates a shallow-running floating crankbait, and the Silent version has no internal rattle, making it completely quiet in the water. This can be a real advantage when fish are pressured or cautious, as the absence of noise allows a more subtle presentation.

The 41F SSR is very stable in current. Even when retrieved through the fastest riffles, it tracks reliably without rolling over or losing its action. This stability makes it a practical choice for fishing moving water, where a lure that holds its line and depth gives the angler more control and confidence.

The colours are natural, imitating various insects and small aquatic creatures that form a favourite part of the chub's diet. The floating design and shallow diving depth of approximately 0.1 m mean the lure works close to the surface, ideal for shallow runs, glides and areas where chub are actively feeding.

Although the Chubby 41F SSR is strongly associated with chub, its compact profile and natural action also attract perch, pike and other predators. It is a versatile small crankbait that suits light spinning tackle and can be used in a range of river and stillwater situations.

Mifine Showtime 1.98m 0.3-2g is an XUL (Extra Ultra Light) spinning rod built for anglers who demand the utmost finesse from their tackle. Designed specifically for fishing with micro lures, this rod excels when targeting perch and other predatory fish in situations where a delicate presentation makes all the difference. Whether you are working tiny soft plastics, micro jigs or small spinners, the Showtime delivers the control and sensitivity required for this specialised branch of lure fishing.

The blank is constructed from 30T carbon fibre, a material chosen for its excellent balance of low weight and structural strength. This carbon construction keeps the rod light in the hand while providing the rigidity needed for accurate lure control. Carbon fibre is also known for its durability and its ability to transmit even the faintest vibrations along the blank, so every touch from a fish is relayed clearly to the angler. With this rod, subtle takes that might go unnoticed on heavier tackle are far easier to detect.

The hollow tip construction further enhances the rod's sensitivity. By keeping the tip section hollow rather than solid, the blank remains responsive without adding unnecessary weight, allowing the angler to feel the action of the lure and the moment a fish makes contact. This is particularly valuable in XUL fishing, where bites can be gentle and the difference between a hook-up and a missed opportunity is often measured in fractions of a second.

Weighing only 70 g, the Mifine Showtime is exceptionally light for its class. This low weight reduces fatigue during long sessions and makes it easy to manipulate small lures precisely, as well as to control a hooked fish right up to the net. The light overall build does not come at the expense of strength, thanks to the 30T carbon blank, giving the rod a responsive yet dependable character.

Fitted throughout the blank are high-quality Fuji guides. These guides allow the line to flow smoothly with minimal resistance, which supports accurate casting and helps preserve line condition over time. The low-friction performance of Fuji guides is a recognised benefit in light lure fishing, where smooth line travel contributes to both casting distance and control.

The rod features a solid tip and a split handle, part of which is covered with EVA material. The split handle design reduces overall weight and gives the rod a modern, balanced feel, while the EVA covering provides a comfortable, secure grip that remains reliable in wet conditions. The solid tip contributes to the rod's sensitivity and helps maintain a smooth, progressive action when playing fish.

In practical terms, the Mifine Showtime 1.98m 0.3-2g is aimed at anglers who enjoy ultra-light lure fishing for perch and similar predators. Its combination of a 30T carbon blank, hollow tip, Fuji guides and a lightweight 70 g build makes it a capable tool for presenting micro lures with precision. The 1.98 m length offers a good compromise between reach and manoeuvrability, suiting both bank fishing and fishing from a boat where space may be limited.

Mifine Showtime 1.93m 0.3-2g is an XUL (Extra Ultra Light) spinning rod built for anglers who demand maximum finesse from their tackle. Designed specifically for fishing with micro lures, this rod excels when targeting perch and other predatory fish in situations where a delicate presentation makes all the difference. Whether you are working tiny soft plastics, micro jigs or small spinners, the Showtime delivers the control and sensitivity needed to fish effectively with the lightest presentations.

The blank is constructed from 30T carbon fibre, a material chosen for its excellent balance of low weight and structural strength. Carbon fibre of this grade is known for its durability and its ability to transmit even the faintest vibrations along the length of the rod. In practice, this means that every touch, tap or tentative take from a fish is transmitted clearly to your hand, allowing you to react quickly and set the hook at the right moment. The result is a rod that feels responsive and connected, even when fishing the smallest lures at distance.

One of the standout design features of the Mifine Showtime is its hollow tip construction. This design further enhances the rod's sensitivity by reducing the mass at the tip section, which in turn allows the blank to transmit vibration more efficiently. A hollow tip also contributes to a lighter overall feel and helps the rod load smoothly when casting very light lures. For the XUL angler, this translates into better feedback and more confident bite detection.

At just 65 g, the Showtime is exceptionally light in the hand. This low weight makes a real difference during long sessions, reducing fatigue and allowing you to fish comfortably for hours. It also makes the rod very easy to control, whether you are casting micro lures with precision or playing a hooked fish. The light weight combined with the sensitive blank gives the angler a feeling of direct control over the lure and the fish.

The rod is fitted with high-quality Fuji guides. These guides are designed to allow the line to pass through with minimal resistance, which helps preserve casting distance and reduces friction during retrieves. Smooth line flow is particularly important when using fine diameters and light lures, as any unnecessary friction can affect both casting performance and lure action. The Fuji guides contribute to the overall refined feel of the rod and support its finesse-oriented design.

The Mifine Showtime features a solid tip and a split handle, part of which is covered with EVA material. The solid tip adds to the rod's sensitivity and helps maintain a smooth, progressive action when working light lures. The split handle design reduces weight and gives the rod a modern, balanced feel, while the EVA covering provides a comfortable, secure grip that remains reliable in wet conditions.

This rod is ideally suited to light spinning and finesse applications. It is particularly effective for perch fishing with micro lures, but it can also be used for other small predatory species where an ultra-light approach is required. Its sensitive carbon blank, hollow tip and lightweight build make it a strong choice for anglers who enjoy the challenge and reward of ultra-light lure fishing.

Hunter Idol 9S 15g is a specialised sinking surface lure developed for chub fishing. This aggressive surface-working bait is designed to attract the attention of chub actively searching for food, making it a highly effective choice for targeting this species in rivers and streams.

The lure features shiny holographic patterns on its sides, which reflect sunlight exceptionally well. This reflective quality makes the lure visible from a considerable distance, giving anglers a distinct advantage when fishing in clear or slightly coloured water where chub can be wary.

One of the standout characteristics of the Hunter Idol 9S is its exceptional casting distance and accuracy. The 15g weight combined with a compact 90mm body allows the lure to cut through the air efficiently, enabling precise placement even in challenging conditions or when targeting fish holding in specific lies.

When retrieving this lure, a fast retrieve with the rod tip held high is recommended. This technique keeps the lure working close to the surface, imitating a distressed or fleeing baitfish. Adding light twitches to the retrieve imparts additional animation, making the lure dart and flash in a way that triggers aggressive strikes from chub.

The Hunter Idol 9S is available in a range of colours to suit different water conditions and light levels. Whether fishing a clear summer stream or a coloured river after rain, selecting the appropriate colour can significantly improve results.

Hunter Idol 7S 11g is a sinking hard lure designed specifically for bass fishing. With its aggressive surface action, it is an excellent choice for bass actively searching for food near the top of the water column. The lure's compact 7.2 cm body and 11 g weight make it easy to cast accurately over long distances, allowing you to cover more water and target fish that are holding in hard-to-reach spots.

The holographic foil on the sides of the Hunter Idol reflects sunlight exceptionally well, making the lure highly visible even from a considerable distance. This flash effect is particularly effective in clear water or bright conditions, where bass rely heavily on their keen eyesight to locate prey. The combination of a realistic profile and strong reflective properties gives the lure a distinct presence that triggers aggressive strikes.

When fishing the Hunter Idol 7S, a fast retrieve with the rod tip held high is recommended. This technique keeps the lure working close to the surface, where it can imitate a fleeing baitfish. Short, sharp twitches of the rod tip can be added to impart extra action, making the lure dart and flash erratically. This stop-and-go presentation is often irresistible to predatory bass, especially when they are in an active feeding mood.

The Hunter Idol 7S is available in a range of proven colour patterns, allowing you to match the hatch or choose a high-visibility option depending on the conditions.

Hunter Faworyt 5S 11g is a specialist sinking lure designed for chub fishing. This compact 5 cm wobler is built to work aggressively at the surface, making it an excellent choice for chub actively searching for food. Its lively action and precise swimming behaviour allow anglers to target fish in a wide range of river and stream conditions.

The lure features bright holographic flanks that reflect sunlight exceptionally well. This reflective finish makes the Faworyt highly visible from a considerable distance, which is a major advantage when fishing clear or lightly coloured water where chub can be spooky. The holographic effect also adds flash and attraction during retrieve, helping to trigger reaction strikes.

One of the standout characteristics of the Hunter Faworyt is its excellent casting performance. The lure flies far and accurately, allowing you to cover more water and reach fish holding in difficult spots. Whether you are casting upstream, across the current or into tight pockets, the Faworyt delivers reliable distance and precision.

For best results, retrieve this lure with a fast, steady action while holding the rod tip high. This keeps the lure working close to the surface where chub are most likely to attack. You can also add light twitches to impart extra animation, making the lure dart and flash erratically. This varied action often provokes aggressive takes from following fish.

The Hunter Faworyt 5S is available in a selection of proven colours, allowing you to match the lure to different water clarity, light conditions and the preferences of local chub. With a length of 5 cm and a weight of 11 g, it is a compact yet heavy enough lure for accurate casting on light to medium tackle.

This sinking wobler is ideal for anglers targeting chub in rivers, streams and smaller waters.
