Kosadaka May-Beetle 35F is a small, exceptionally lightweight floating surface lure that closely mimics a real beetle that has fallen onto the water. Measuring just 35 mm and weighing only 3.8 g, it is a specialist presentation for surface-feeding chub, yet its realistic profile and subtle action also prove highly attractive to perch and pike.

Thanks to its carefully considered construction, the May-Beetle 35F performs reliably not only on stillwaters such as lakes, ponds and reservoirs, but also in rivers where a steady current demands a lure that tracks correctly. The floating body allows it to be worked across the surface film, creating the kind of disturbance that triggers predatory fish to strike.

Inside the body sits a small rattle chamber. As the lure is retrieved, the internal weight emits a subtle acoustic signal that travels through the water and helps fish locate the bait, even in coloured water or low-light conditions. This combination of visual realism and sound makes the May-Beetle a versatile surface option throughout the warmer months.

Despite its modest weight and compact dimensions, the May-Beetle 35F is notably aerodynamic. It casts cleanly and accurately, maintaining good distance even when fishing into a headwind, which is a genuine advantage when you need to reach fish that are holding away from the bank.

The finish is equally well considered. Each lure is painted with quality coatings and sealed with a UV-reflective layer that catches and returns light, enhancing visibility and adding a lifelike flash that helps draw attention on the surface.

The May-Beetle 35F is fitted with two sharp double hooks made from high-quality wire. This construction gives the hooks the strength to resist being straightened by a powerful fish, while the double-hook configuration also reduces the risk of the lure snagging in weed, grass and other bottom obstructions.

With a swimming depth of 0 to 0.25 m, the May-Beetle 35F is a true surface and just-subsurface lure. It is available in a range of colour options, allowing anglers to match the hatch or choose a high-visibility pattern for murky conditions.

Haldorado Big Feed Pellet 6mm 2kg – Strawberry & Pineapple is a highly aromatic pellet designed for both initial baiting and precise spot feeding. The pellets release a strong strawberry and pineapple aroma that is highly attractive to all carp family species, making them a reliable choice for anglers targeting carp, bream, tench and other cyprinids.

The 6mm size is a versatile option that can be used in a variety of feeding situations. Whether you are introducing a bed of bait at the start of a session or placing a small, targeted amount around your hookbait, these pellets allow you to feed with accuracy and confidence.

One of the key advantages of the Haldorado Big Feed Pellet is its fast-acting nature. The pellets work quickly and purposefully, drawing fish into the baited area without unnecessary delay. This makes them particularly useful when you need to build a competitive feeding spot or when fish are present but not yet actively feeding.

The pellets are suitable for use with feeding rockets, PVA socks and PVA bags. This flexibility means you can adapt your presentation to the venue and the fishing situation, whether you are fishing at close range or casting to a distant feature.

Supplied in a 2kg bag, the Haldorado Big Feed Pellet offers excellent value for anglers who feed regularly. The strawberry and pineapple flavour combination provides a sweet, fruity profile that is well proven in carp fishing, and the strong aroma helps to create an attractive cloud in the water that encourages fish to investigate.

For best results, use these pellets as part of a balanced feeding strategy, combining them with a matching hookbait or method mix. Their 6mm size makes them easy to handle and suitable for a wide range of carp and coarse fishing applications.

Okuma Sniper Feeder Tip is a carbon fibre quiver tip designed as a replacement or spare tip for the 2024 Okuma 8K Feeder rod range. This tip allows anglers to fine-tune the sensitivity and casting weight of their feeder setup, ensuring the right balance for different conditions and target species.

Constructed from carbon fibre, the Sniper Feeder Tip offers a lightweight yet responsive feel. The carbon material helps transmit even subtle bites, making it easier to detect delicate takes when fishing with a feeder rig. The tip is available in a range of strengths, allowing you to match the tip to the weight of your feeder and the prevailing fishing situation.

The tip is available in six different strengths: 1.5oz, 2oz, 2.5oz, 3oz, 4oz and 5oz. Each strength corresponds to a slightly different length, with the lighter tips measuring approximately 51cm and the heavier tips around 51.5cm to 52cm. This variation ensures that the tip action remains balanced across the range.

Choosing the correct tip strength is important for effective feeder fishing. Lighter tips such as 1.5oz and 2oz are ideal for calm conditions, small feeders and shy-biting fish, while heavier tips like 4oz and 5oz are better suited to casting heavier feeders, fishing in windy conditions or targeting larger fish. The Okuma Sniper Feeder Tip gives you the flexibility to adapt your rod to the situation at hand.

These tips are specifically designed for the 2024 Okuma 8K Feeder rods, ensuring a precise fit and seamless integration with the rod's action. Whether you are replacing a lost or damaged tip or simply want to expand your options, this quiver tip is a practical and reliable choice.

Deepex Spicy Red Fish Boilies 18mm 800g are high-protein carp boilies that have earned a strong reputation in competitive carp fishing. This particular flavour, Spicy Red Fish, is manufactured from fishmeal and a wide range of marine ingredients, with an increased content of Robin Red. The result is a bait with a sharp, spicy taste and aroma that carp find highly attractive.

The boilies are designed to readily absorb water, becoming semi-soluble once submerged. This allows them to release nutritional feeding signals quickly into the water, drawing fish into the baited area and encouraging them to feed confidently. The combination of fishmeal and marine additives creates a highly digestible bait that carp will accept readily, even under pressured conditions.

Spicy Red Fish is particularly effective during the warmer months, from May through to August, when carp are actively feeding and water temperatures are at their highest. During this period, the bait's strong aroma and rapid release of attractants make it an excellent choice for both short sessions and longer campaigns.

This boilie has proven itself in competition fishing. It was used as the main bait during the 2019 IBCC, and was also the bait of choice for the winning team at the 2020 Latvian Championship. Such results demonstrate its ability to perform under the demanding conditions of match angling, where bait efficiency and reliability are essential.

Each boilie measures 18mm in diameter, making it suitable for a wide range of carp rigs, including hair rigs and snowman presentations. The 800g bag provides a generous quantity for pre-baiting, spodding or use in PVA bags. Whether you are fishing a commercial venue or a wild water, these boilies offer a proven, high-attractant option for targeting carp.

Savage Gear 4D Linethru Pulse Tail Trout 20cm 102g SS is a premium spinning lure designed for targeting trout and other predatory fish. Part of Savage Gear's renowned 4D series, this lure combines realistic appearance with a proven swimming action to trigger aggressive strikes.

The 4D Linethru Pulse Tail Trout features a lifelike trout profile and detailed finish that mimics natural prey. Its pulse tail design creates a seductive tail action even at slow retrieve speeds, making it effective in a variety of conditions. The line-through construction allows the lure to slide up the line when a fish strikes, reducing leverage and improving hook-up ratios.

Weighing 102g and measuring 20cm, this lure is ideal for casting long distances and covering water efficiently. It is well-suited for both freshwater and saltwater spinning, particularly for trout, but also for other predatory species such as pike, perch, and bass where they are present.

The lure is available in two proven colour patterns: Green Silver and Lemon Trout. Both are designed to match natural forage and provide visual attraction in various water clarities.

For best results, fish the Savage Gear 4D Linethru Pulse Tail Trout with a steady retrieve or occasional twitches to activate the tail. Its balanced weight and streamlined shape make it a reliable choice for anglers seeking a versatile, high-performance swimbait.

Savage Gear 4D Line Thru Pulsetail Trout 20cm 102g is a large, realistic trout-imitation swimbait designed for pike and other predatory fish. Part of Savage Gear's 4D range, it combines a detailed 4D-photoprinted body with a pulsing paddle tail that produces strong vibration and a lifelike swimming action in the water.

The lure measures 20 cm and weighs 102 g, making it a substantial big-fish bait that can be cast accurately on suitable heavy spinning tackle. The Line Thru construction allows the line to run through the body of the lure, which helps maintain a natural presentation and reduces the leverage a fish can use to throw the lure during the fight.

The Pulsetail design features a wide, supple tail section that pulses and rolls even at slow retrieve speeds. This creates a strong pressure wave and visual attraction that can trigger reaction strikes from following predators. The 4D photoprint finish reproduces the natural markings, shading and scale detail of a trout, giving the lure a highly realistic appearance in clear water.

This swimbait is available in three colour variants: Rainbow, Chub and Albino. Each variant retains the same 20 cm length and 102 g weight, allowing anglers to match the hatch or choose a high-visibility option depending on water clarity and light conditions.

The 102 g weight makes this lure suitable for targeting large pike and other big freshwater predators. It can be fished with a steady retrieve, slow-rolled near structure, or worked with rod-tip movements to make the tail pulse and the body glide. The Line Thru system is particularly useful when fishing around weed, snags or open water where a natural, snag-resistant presentation is beneficial.

For anglers seeking a durable, realistic and highly visible big swimbait, the Savage Gear 4D Line Thru Pulsetail Trout offers a proven combination of 4D detailing, pulsing tail action and a through-line rigging system.

Kinetic Wool Socks are very warm wool socks designed for anglers who need reliable warmth and comfort during long sessions on the bank in cold conditions. The wool structure creates a layer between the sock and the skin that traps air, helping to keep the feet warm.

These socks are characterised by their resistance to moisture and odours, making them a practical choice for extended wear in wellington boots, waders or winter footwear. The moisture-resistant properties help to manage dampness inside the boot, while the odour-resistant nature supports freshness over long days by the water.

The upper section fits closely around the leg so that the sock does not slip down, keeping it securely in place while walking, wading or casting. This snug fit contributes to consistent comfort and reduces the need to adjust the sock during use.

The composition is 20% merino wool and 80% acrylic. Merino wool is valued for its natural warmth and softness, while the acrylic content adds durability and helps the sock retain its shape and structure after repeated wear and washing.

Available in three size ranges, these socks are suitable for a wide range of anglers and can be matched to different boot sizes. They are a straightforward, practical accessory for cold-weather fishing, whether you are targeting coarse fish, carp or predator species in low temperatures.

Made from tough 600D polyester with foam padding and a PVC coating, it offers a practical combination of durability and cushioning for anglers who want to look after their tackle.

The outer shell is built from 600D polyester, a fabric widely used in fishing luggage because it resists abrasion and everyday wear. The PVC coating adds an extra layer of protection against damp conditions and dirt, helping to keep the contents cleaner when the case is used on the bank or in transit.

Inside, foam padding helps to cushion the reel against knocks and light impacts. This makes the case suitable both for storing reels at home and for carrying them to and from the water, where tackle can easily be bumped or compressed in a rucksack or car boot.

A convenient carry handle makes the case easy to pick up and transport. The handle allows the case to be carried on its own or moved quickly between a tackle bag, vehicle and fishing position.

Preston Absolute Hooklength Box Short is a double-sided hooklength box designed to keep ready-tied rigs and hooklengths organised, protected and ready for use. Part of the respected Preston Absolute range, it is aimed at anglers who prepare hooklengths in advance and want a tidy, reliable storage solution that travels easily in a seatbox or carryall.

The box is manufactured from very strong plastic, giving it the rigidity needed to protect stored hooklengths during transport. The double-sided layout means both sides of the box can be used for storage, effectively doubling the usable capacity within a compact footprint. This makes it a practical choice for anglers who like to carry a range of hooklength options without adding bulk to their tackle setup.

Inside, the box features retaining pegs with lengths marked in millimetres. These markings allow hooklengths of different lengths to be wound and stored neatly, so you can identify and select the right rig quickly. Whether you fish short hooklengths for method feeder work or longer hooklengths for other presentations, the marked positions help keep everything consistent and easy to manage.

The box is highly watertight and does not let water in. This is particularly useful in wet weather or when the box is stored alongside damp items in a carryall, as it helps keep hooklengths and hooks protected from moisture. The secure closure also helps prevent contents from spilling if the box is knocked or tipped during a session.

Magnetic retainers make the box easier to open and close, adding convenience when your hands are cold or wet. The magnetic closure provides a positive hold while still allowing quick access when you need to change a hooklength. This is a small but genuinely useful detail for anglers who value efficiency bankside.

With dimensions of 18 x 8 cm, the Short version is compact enough to fit into a seatbox drawer or tackle bag while still offering practical storage for a useful number of hooklengths. It is well suited to coarse and match angling where prepared hooklengths are part of an organised approach, and it also works well for pleasure anglers who like to keep rigs tidy.

Overall, the Preston Absolute Hooklength Box Short combines strong construction, clear length markings, a watertight body and magnetic closure in a compact double-sided format. It is a straightforward, well-thought-out storage accessory for anglers who want their hooklengths protected and ready to fish.

DUO Bayruf Tide VIB 60 is a compact sinking vibration lure from DUO International, designed to trigger strikes through intense vibration rather than visual attraction alone. At 60 mm and 9.6 g, it produces strong vibrations in the water that are picked up by the lateral line of predatory fish, allowing them to locate the lure even in heavily coloured or murky water where sight feeding is difficult. This makes it a genuinely useful option when clarity is poor and fish are relying on their sense of vibration to hunt.

The distinctive body shape of the Bayruf Tide VIB 60 offers a further practical advantage. When retrieved, the lure tends to strike obstacles with its front edge rather than with the hooks, which helps it ride over snags and reduces the risk of snagging. In practice this means you can work the lure through rougher, snag-strewn areas with more confidence than with many conventional hard baits.

As with many VIB and lipless crankbait style lures, the Bayruf Tide VIB 60 is a sinking model. It also features internal rattles, adding an audible element to the vibration signature and helping fish home in on the lure in low visibility. The body is fitted with a dorsal fin made from a special rubber compound, which in this application offers advantages over rigid plastic, contributing to the lure's overall action and durability.

The lower hook hanger is designed to rotate around its axis, which helps prevent hooked fish from throwing the lure during the fight. This is a small but meaningful detail when targeting hard-fighting predators that shake their heads aggressively.

Fishing the DUO Bayruf Tide VIB 60 is straightforward and closely resembles a simple jigging approach. Allow the lure to sink until it reaches the desired depth, then begin your retrieve, pause, and let it fall again to the target depth. The key is to work out the depth at which the predators are holding and to present the lure consistently at that level. Because the lure sinks, you can fish different water layers and different depths effectively, something a standard floating or suspending wobblers cannot do as easily.

On tougher days, when pike are sitting tight to the bottom and are reluctant to rise for a lure retrieved higher in the water column, the DUO Bayruf Tide VIB 60 can be the lure that turns a blank session around. Its sinking action and vibration output make it well suited to working close to the bottom where inactive predators are holding.

The DUO Bayruf Tide VIB 60 is available in a range of colour patterns, giving anglers the option to match the lure to water clarity, light conditions and the natural prey present in their venue.

The L-Minnow's action is extremely lively – a wide, vivid wobble imitates a panicking small fish, provoking both active and cautious predators. The lure performs excellently with a steady retrieve, twitching or stop-and-go technique, making it suitable for various fishing styles and conditions.

Meus Spectrum Protein Boilies 18mm 1kg – Hot Dragon Spicy are fast-acting protein boilies from a unique range built around an innovative Liquid Coating technology. This production method gives the boilies a significantly higher concentration of attractors and flavour compounds, allowing them to release an intense aromatic cloud that draws fish in effectively even from a considerable distance.

Once they enter the water, the boilies begin to soften and actively release their aromas and attractors. This rapid action helps you build a highly attractive baited area in a short space of time, which makes the range particularly well suited to short sessions, heavily pressured venues or situations where you need to catch the attention of carp as quickly as possible.

The boilies are made from high-quality, easily digestible proteins, including casein, albumin and other milk proteins. Thanks to the carefully selected composition, they not only start working quickly but also hold the interest of carp for a long period.

Hot Dragon Spicy delivers a rich, pungent spice aroma designed for carp that respond to intense flavours. The carefully balanced spice blend creates a long-lasting scent that actively encourages feeding and helps your bait stand out even on heavily fished waters. It is an excellent choice for anglers looking for a bold and distinctive flavour for a wide range of fishing conditions.

For longer baiting campaigns, the manufacturer recommends combining these boilies with the Meus Durus range in a 50:50 ratio, balancing fast action with long-lasting bait durability.

This fully balanced and complete bait delivers an optimal combination of proteins, fats, carbohydrates, vitamins and minerals, making it a dependable choice for anglers who demand consistent performance from their bait.

The Orka mix is defined by its intense crustacean smell and a rich aroma of sea delicacies. This powerful shellfish profile is designed to attract carp and encourage them to investigate and feed with confidence, particularly in venues where a strong, distinctive bait signal is required.

Each boilie is manufactured to a fully balanced nutritional formula. The optimal ratio of proteins, fats, carbohydrates, vitamins and minerals supports the bait's overall attractiveness and helps maintain its effectiveness during longer sessions. This makes Orka a reliable option for both short trips and extended campaigns.

The 18mm diameter offers a versatile presentation size suitable for a wide range of carp rigs and hookbait applications. The 1kg pack provides a practical quantity for baiting up, whether you are introducing a bed of free offerings or fishing a single hookbait over a baited area.

For anglers looking to increase the bait's pulling power even further, Aiki Baits recommend dipping or glazing these boilies with the Shellfish Red dip. This additional step enhances the already strong crustacean aroma and can give the hookbait an extra edge when fish are cautious or heavily pressured.

Orka boilies are particularly well suited to sport carp fishing where a high degree of distinctiveness is needed. Their strong shellfish signature and balanced composition make them a strong choice for anglers targeting carp in venues that receive regular baiting pressure and where standing out from the crowd can make the difference.

Lucky Craft Micro Air Claw S is a compact sinking lure that has earned a strong reputation among anglers who target trout in stocked and natural waters. Measuring just 3 cm and weighing 2.2 g, it is a small, dense presentation that casts remarkably well for its size and tracks through the water with a tight, enticing action.

The Micro Air Claw S is built around a specialised body shape that promotes long, accurate casts, even when fishing light tackle. This makes it a practical choice when fish are holding further out or when you need to cover water efficiently from the bank. Once in the water, the lure sinks steadily and can be worked at a range of speeds.

Whether retrieved slowly with a gentle twitch or wound in at a faster pace, the Micro Air Claw S produces vibrations that draw the attention of nearby fish. This versatility allows anglers to experiment with cadence and depth until they find the presentation that triggers a response on the day.

The lure is fitted with a sharp single hook without a barb. This hook configuration is common in area trout and competition fishing, where quick and clean hook removal is valued. The single hook also reduces the risk of snagging compared with treble-hooked alternatives.

With a sinking action and a working depth of approximately 1 to 1.5 metres, the Micro Air Claw S is well suited to fishing the upper and middle layers of the water column. It can be counted down to reach a preferred depth or retrieved immediately for a shallower presentation.

The Micro Air Claw S is available in a selection of proven colour patterns, including Shakutori Green, Tunkara, Bana Mango, Blow Impact Kanimiso, Usumiso Pink and Orion Blue. These finishes are designed to offer anglers options for different light conditions and water clarity.

This lure is most commonly used for Area Trout fishing and in competition settings, where small, refined lures and precise presentations are essential. Its compact size and sinking action also make it a useful option for trout in rivers and streams when fished with light gear.

For anglers seeking a small sinking lure that casts well, vibrates attractively and is built with a sharp single hook, the Lucky Craft Micro Air Claw S is a strong contender in the area trout category.

Lucky Craft Deep Cra-Pea LC Max SS is a compact sinking crankbait developed for anglers who need to reach fish holding in deeper water or at distance. Measuring just 3.5 cm and weighing 5 g, it belongs to the LC MAX (Long Cast Max) series, which is built around a magnetic weight-transfer system. This internal mechanism shifts the centre of gravity towards the rear of the lure during the cast and returns it to the swimming position on retrieve, supporting long, accurate casts with a small, lightweight bait.

The 5 g weight is deliberately chosen to sit slightly below the maximum permitted weight used in various Area Trout competition formats. This makes the Deep Cra-Pea LC Max SS a practical choice for anglers fishing under such rules who still want a lure capable of covering a lot of water. It is particularly useful when fish have moved away from the bank and need to be reached from a distance.

The lure is a slow-sinking model with a diving depth of approximately 2 m. Its aggressive action on the move helps it stand out in the water column, while the slow sink rate allows it to be worked through the lower layers where trout and other predatory fish often hold. The combination of a small profile, realistic presentation and steady sinking behaviour makes it effective for tempting cautious fish.

The Deep Cra-Pea LC Max SS is fitted with sharp single hooks. Single hooks are widely used in trout fishing because they offer reliable hook holds while being easier to remove from a fish's mouth than trebles. This is a practical advantage when fish are to be released quickly and in good condition.

Available colours include Lico Pink, Hounengame, Kirin, Sencha, Kappa and Akaoni, giving anglers a range of natural and brighter options to match different water clarity and light conditions. The lure is made in Japan.

Lucky Craft Unfair Super Slim 50 SP is a highly effective suspending minnow lure developed specifically for area trout fishing. The Unfair series was the first to create a major stir with its unique and explosive fishing characteristics, designed for extremely slow retrieves. Its key features are a "slow and wide action" that creates the illusion of a lure holding position in the water, and an "irregular action" that automatically increases the chances of a bite.

The Unfair Super Slim 50 SP measures 50 mm and weighs just 2 g, making it a genuinely finesse-oriented offering. Its slim, minnow-style profile allows it to be presented on light tackle and fished with the kind of delicate, measured retrieve that pressured trout respond to. The suspending (SP) construction means the lure holds its depth when the retrieve is paused, rather than floating up or sinking away, so it stays in the strike zone for longer.

One of the most distinctive aspects of this lure is the way water flows over the grooves on the body surface. These channels are covered by the current, producing a "soft wave" effect that goes beyond the action of hard-bodied lures. In practice, this means the lure continues to generate subtle vibration and movement even when it is not being retrieved, which can be a decisive advantage when trout are following but not committing.

The Unfair Super Slim 50 SP is designed to be fished at a diving depth of approximately 0.3 to 0.5 m, making it well suited to shallow runs, margins and the upper layers of the water column. It is a natural choice for area trout venues, small stillwaters and streams where a slow, controlled presentation is required.

This is an original Japanese-made Lucky Craft lure, a brand that has earned a strong following among competition anglers targeting trout. The Unfair series in particular has been enthusiastically supported by tournament fishermen who need a lure that performs reliably under pressure and produces results on difficult days.

Available colours include Amabie, Cafeore Sherbet, Goma Sherbet II and Clear, giving anglers a useful spread of natural and translucent finishes to match different light conditions and water clarity.

Lucky Craft Unfair Super Slim Glow Body 50F is a highly effective floating lure developed specifically for area trout fishing. The Unfair series was the first to create a major stir with its unique and explosive fishing characteristics, designed for extremely slow retrieves. Its key features are a "slow and wide action" that creates the illusion of a fixed-position movement, and an "irregular action" that automatically increases the chances of a bite. In addition, water currents flow over the slits on the body surface, producing a "soft undulation" that surpasses the effect of hard lures. Enjoy an original wobler that has been enthusiastically supported by tournament anglers targeting trout.

The Unfair Super Slim Glow Body measures 50 mm and weighs just 1.8 g, making it ideal for finesse presentations in area trout ponds and small streams. Its floating buoyancy allows it to be fished at depths of 0.2 to 0.5 m, perfect for targeting fish holding in the upper layers. The slim profile and glow body finish provide excellent visibility and attraction, even in low-light conditions or murky water.

Designed for slow retrieves, this lure excels when worked with a steady, gentle winding action. The wide, slow movement and irregular action trigger aggressive strikes from trout that are hesitant to chase faster lures. The soft undulation created by water passing over the body slits adds a lifelike vibration that fish find irresistible.

Whether you are a tournament angler or a recreational fisherman, the Lucky Craft Unfair Super Slim Glow Body 50F offers a unique advantage in area trout fishing. Its proven performance and innovative design make it a must-have addition to any trout angler's tackle box.

Lucky Craft Micro Cra-Pea DR 2Hook SS is a micro-sized crankbait from the renowned Cra-Pea family, a series that has earned a strong reputation among trout anglers for its fish-catching ability. This 25 mm, 2.1 g version brings the proven Cra-Pea concept down to a true micro profile, making it an excellent choice when fish are pressured, finicky or feeding on very small prey.

Despite its compact body, the Micro Cra-Pea DR 2Hook SS is built with a strong swimming action that helps it track reliably through the water. The DR designation indicates a deeper-running version within the Micro Cra-Pea range, allowing it to be fished slightly below the surface where trout and other predators often hold.

The 2Hook SS configuration is a key feature of this lure. It is designed to be fished with two single hooks, which on a small body can improve hook-up potential. Using two single hooks also increases the vibration coefficient of the lure, giving it a more pronounced action and presence in the water. This makes the Micro Cra-Pea DR 2Hook SS particularly effective for trout, chub and other predatory fish.

With a slow-sinking action and a running depth of approximately 0.3 m, this lure is well suited to shallow rivers, streams and small stillwaters. It can be worked with a steady retrieve, twitched, or allowed to sink briefly before being retrieved, making it a versatile option for light spinning and ultralight lure fishing.

The Micro Cra-Pea DR 2Hook SS is available in a range of proven colour patterns, including Lico Pink, Amabie, Kaniore Free, Sakuramiso, Cafeore Sherbet, Goma Sherbet II and Clear. Each colour is designed to offer a different visual trigger depending on water clarity, light conditions and the natural forage present.

Whether you are targeting trout in a small stream or chub in a river, the Lucky Craft Micro Cra-Pea DR 2Hook SS offers a refined, high-quality micro crankbait that combines Japanese craftsmanship with a fish-focused design.

Lucky Craft Surface Air Blow F 33mm 1.8g is a floating surface lure developed from the proven Air Blow wake bait and engineered specifically to draw strikes right off the top. When retrieved, it pushes a wide, rolling wake across the surface, making it an excellent choice for trout, chub and other fish that patrol the upper layers and watch for food falling onto the water.

The most effective presentation is the pin spot action on the surface. By working the lure with a fine, delicate rod action, you can create small circular ripples around the Surface Air Blow, imitating an insect that has just dropped onto the surface film. This subtle disturbance is often enough to trigger a reaction from fish that are actively feeding up top.

At just 33 mm and 1.8 g, the Surface Air Blow is a genuinely lightweight surface lure that can be cast accurately on light tackle. Its compact profile and floating construction make it easy to keep the lure working in the strike zone, even in calm conditions where a heavier bait would simply sink out of the feeding window.

The floating design means the lure stays on the surface throughout the retrieve, so you can pause it, twitch it or work it slowly without losing contact with the top layer. This makes it particularly useful during the surface season, when fish are looking up and feeding confidently on insects and other small prey.

Available in a range of proven Lucky Craft colourways, including Kaniore Back Southern, Shakutori Green, Pancake, Pirikara, Tunkara and Sakura Miso, the Surface Air Blow gives you options to match the hatch and the light conditions on the day.

We confidently recommend the Lucky Craft Surface Air Blow to anglers who enjoy chasing takes from the surface, whether on small streams, rivers or stillwaters where trout and chub are willing to come up for a well-presented floating lure.
