23 best spinners on pike
How to choose a good spoon for pike fishing
Since pike is one of the most common predators in domestic water bodies, the question of its fishing methods and baits used remains relevant. As in any other case, the choice of bait includes a number of very specific and important nuances, the exact observance of which gives the user a guarantee for the acquisition of a suitable model. In the case of lures, it is best to proceed from the principle of seasonality, and consider the most appropriate samples with a bias to these limitations.
- Winter. Despite the fact that for winter fishing, many anglers prefer to use a toast with a live bait, ice glinting remains the classic method of replenishing trophy stocks. At this time, the pike actively takes monochrome and simple vertical spinners (for brass, gold or silver) 50-100 millimeters in length. From the point of view of the shape, a droplet about 30 millimeters wide will be the most optimal choice, but you can experiment as an extraordinary experiment. In time of hunger, pike can throw on any bait.
- Spring. This time of year is characterized by increased activity of the toothy predator and gradual preparation for spawning. As in winter, the lack of food in the reservoirs forces the pike to follow a rigid instinct and attack almost everything. However, one should not blindly resort to the use of rotating models - the intensity of their movement can easily frighten the fish. It is best to give preference to small (50-80 millimeters) oscillating lures of a neutral color that reliably convey the colors of the standard inhabitants of a particular water body.
- Summer. Not yet the peak of activity, but quite a full time for yourself, when a pike can be lured except for larger prey. According to the logic of things, the most suitable baits at this time will be vibrators and rotators with a length from 100 to 150 millimeters. In addition, a large number of pike moves to grassy places, where the most productive option will be the use of vibrations of medium size (approximately 70-80 millimeters).
- Autumn. The most active time of the year is when the pike begins to enter the state of zhora, and the reserves of vegetable food in the water gradually decrease. At this time, the predator can be seduced by absolutely any lure - whether it is a small swayer or a hyperactive rotator. The optimal lengths are from 30 to 70 millimeters with the possibility of catching trophies on the largest spinners in the collection.

The best spinners spinning pike
Mepps AGLIA LONG №3
Rating: 4.9
If there is a lure in the world that can eclipse the glory of Black Fury, then it should always be the Agila Long model from the same Mepps company. In this case, it will deal exclusively with the third license plate modification, the weight of which amounted to 11.5 grams. Slightly superior in price to Fury, this bait has a relatively simple design, but is capable of carrying large, trophy fish from the depths without harming its own integrity.Its petal does not differ in any fanciful colors, and for a long time remained completely clean. But a series of updates led Mepps to contribute one small, but brilliantly played addition - the simple sticker of the holographic tape allowed to double the bite (on internal tests).
According to consumers, Agila Long No. 3 is the unofficial flagship of its series, as it can be used to catch a large predator (such as pike, perch, chub, trout), and to catch little brave men (perch, ide). You may not be too keen on fishing for spinners, but you must have at least one representative of this series in the collection.
Virtues
-
universal dimensions, allowing to capture any (by size) predator;
-
gradual (albeit reluctant) update of appearance;
-
low cost;
-
high popularity in the circles of domestic fishermen;
-
simple, but very durable and reliable design;
disadvantages
- not found.
Mepps BLACK FURY
Rating: 4.8
Black Fury from the company Mepps is considered a real legend among domestic fishing enthusiasts, as it has repeatedly emerged victorious from the confrontation with a trophy pike. This series is divided into only 4 modifications, the weight of which varies from 3.5 to 8 grams, but even this number of options is enough to adapt to the various conditions of water bodies. The basis for the success of this line is considered to be the successful combination of black with gold, silver and bronze. Such a mix creates a real riot of colors with an intense rotation of the petal even on the weakest wiring, which does not go unnoticed even by the most motionless predator. A red bead in the axial part of the spinner, as well as several bright dots in the central part of the petal, serves as an additional element to stimulate the attack.
Like the previous nominee, Mepps Black Fury boasts an extremely low price level, which is guaranteed to suit any angler. It is simple in construction, unassuming in circulation and very catchy to the most diverse predator, which is part of its deafening success.
Virtues
-
the high popularity of lures in the near abroad and the territory of Russia;
-
very low price;
-
variability of sizes and sufficient number of working colors;
-
high structural strength, the ability to carry large predators from the water;
disadvantages
- not identified.
Blue Fox Super Vibrax
Rating: 4.7
Blue Fox's superb and extremely noticeable Super Vibrax bauble falls into the rating due to its high catchability even in the most “deaf” on the biting water bodies. Shows an equally beautiful game regardless of size, which is why it can be used for pike fishing (albeit in different sizes) in three variations. The weight of the smallest spinner in the series is only 6 grams, while the big one weighs no more than 11 grams. In this case, there is no need to talk about flight data, but when immersed in water, the rotator starts to show itself from an exceptionally good side. A pleasant light print on the front of the petal Super Vibrax creates a captivating play of light that no normal predator can resist. The pulverized weight on the axial part ensures optimal frontal resistance, without slowing down, but, on the contrary, giving the rotation greater intensity and intensity.
An official update of the external condition of this great series took place quite recently, because of which it leaped with new colors and did not add at all in the cost parameter. Super Vibrax remains to this day one of the cheapest spinners on the market, which has ensured (and continues to provide) its popularity at all times.
Virtues
-
very low price;
-
high catchability regardless of the speed of flow;
-
streamlined shape of the central part, which gives an advantage in terms of the acceleration of the petal;
-
updated design, great luring data;
disadvantages
- not found.
Daiwa Silver Creek Spinner
Rating: 4.6
One of the most successful forms of spinning spinner in the past few years simply could not escape the top rankings. Daiwa Silver Creek Spinner - the best solution to the problem of luring without the introduction of temporary irritating elements (flies, etc.), based on the "gash" the load in the form of fish fry. There are as many as 11 varieties of this spinner, but they all work as one in a similar manner. This is due to a simple balance: with a weight of 6 grams body spinners are shorter than the 18-gram (the largest in this series) model. The main emphasis in the design was placed on the customization of the fish as the main lure link when approaching the pike. The petal is secondary here, and serves as a bait only at long distances.
However, we cannot fail to note the presence of perforation on the petals of Silver Creek Spinner. 5 through holes not only increase the rotational speed, but also create an accompanying acoustic effect, alarming the predator, regardless of distance. The only "puncture" Daiwa happened at the stage of setting the price - the final price tag is too large for ordinary consumers. But, looking at the front of the work, everything seems more than fair.
Virtues
-
two elements serve as bait at various distances (petal - at long distances, small fish - at the closest one);
-
high catchability in stagnant water;
-
11 modifications within one series;
-
optimal combination of price and quality;
disadvantages
- not found.
Myran agat
Rating: 4.5
One of the cheapest spinners on the market in combination is one of the most catching, which at the present stage is becoming less and less. Apparently, in the design of Myran Agat there is something that awakens sharp hunting instincts in the predator. The narrow petal makes it possible to use this rotator on a rapid current, where trout and pike are the prevailing trophies. As many as three models of this bait are available for sale, with a weight varying within 3-30 grams. This separation has been done very well: the angler will always be able to pick up a spoon for fishing on a certain depth horizon.
The petal of Myran Agat has several color options, but most often neutral items in gold or silver are sold in retail stores. Of course, you can always aim to look for more ornate colors, however, and the fact that there is, it is enough for efficient fishing. Because of their low visibility, newcomers rarely resort to choosing this spinner, so amateur anglers become its main audience. However, we recommend to consider the possibility of buying, regardless of your skill level, because the results of fishing are guaranteed to be able to please you.
Virtues
-
possibility to choose a model in three weight variations;
-
the presence of red fly on the hook;
-
high degree of catchability (from pike to zander and salmon);
-
very low price;
disadvantages
- mediocre design.
Lucky John Shelt Blade 03
Rating: 4.5
Baubles Shelt Blade 03 from the company Lucky John - is a successful attempt to impose a struggle forever going ahead of all the Mepps Black Fury, and if possible to push that into the background. Whether it turns out to embody this very idea or not is not a question for us. However, we are confident that this spoon deserves its portion of fame (even through placement in the ranking). A successful combination of dark and bright elemental field on the petal creates a very “sticky” play of light during rotation, which can not pass by the predatory gaze. Interested in the prey, this lure turns on the second element of luring - a bright front sight fixed on a hook not with a simple knot, but with the help of a bright metal clamp. By adding two terms, the angler gets a bite, the effectiveness of which depends in half on his further individual actions.
Actually, the main "trick" of the lure of Shelt Blade 03 is that it gives an opportunity to show a bit of her talent, confidently beating the fish at the stage of hooking and liner. This model is very inexpensive, and therefore widespread among the fishermen of our country.
Virtues
-
very low price;
-
a very intense game that moves the predator to instant response;
-
robust design with tungsten sinker beads;
-
double luring effect (color + front sight);
disadvantages
- poor flight performance.
Kuusamo Kuf
Rating: 4.4
The 7 gram Kuusamo Kus-Lippa 7 rotator is one of the most beautiful pike lures, showing excellent performance at any posting speed. It has a textured petal with a catchy color and bright points that serve as a guideline for the attack. It starts from the moment of complete immersion of the body under water, regardless of the speed at which the winding begins. For additional stimulation of the pike, the tee part is equipped with a bright red front sight, which gradually, with high intensity of movement, focuses attention on itself.
According to users, from the point of view of the expediency of buying Kuusamo Kus-Lippa 7, there is absolutely no skepticism. This spoon is successfully used by experienced anglers, but, alas, has not reached the big sports. However, this fact does not say anything: experts recommend beginners to replenish the collection with this bait in the required order.
Virtues
-
unique texture of a drop-shaped petal;
-
presence of front sight on the hook;
-
petal rotation begins at a low wiring speed;
-
universal lure, able to work on the course, and in stagnant water;
disadvantages
- not found.
The best oscillating baits for pike
Kuusamo Professor 3
Rating: 4.9
The adverb “Professor” came to this famous series of lashes not at all accidentally - this is a true commemoration of excellence, and a small fraction of the Finnish pun. This bait hints that competitors need to learn a lot in order to reach the same level of performance and skill. By limiting only two modifications to 9 and 12 grams (with the same length of 75 millimeters), Kuusamo Professor 3 covers all the needs of anglers in a good spoon for fishing in open water or in overgrown places. The fact is that a double (or single, depending on the type) hook has safety whiskers, which protect the trolling from accidental hooking on a snag or algae.
As for the visual part, here the model presents a surprise in the form of as many as 20 color options (some of which, unfortunately, are not on the market). At the base of the hook is a red rubber insert that serves as a basting for the predator to carry out the attack. From the point of view of price, Professor 3 is not the cheapest sample in the selection, but it fully justifies the price tag both constructively and superficially. He has not yet received a huge prevalence in the ranks of newbies, but lovers eagerly advise their inexperienced comrades to make a similar purchase.
Virtues
-
outstanding results fishing in clean and overgrown water;
-
acceptable price;
-
high-quality coating without fading and erasing for 4-5 seasons;
-
good balance of softness / hardness on the non-griping whiskers;
disadvantages
- not found.
Rublex orkla
Rating: 4.8
The spoon, which consistently occupies high places in ratings and reviews (including ours), is a true classic of fishing for pike on a wobble. Just as in the case of Wiliams Wabler (but to a lesser extent) or Abu Garcia Toby, Orkla has a wide range of models, consisting of 6 modifications weighing from 8 to 24 grams and length from 57 to 81 millimeters. S-shaped body spinners provides its spasmodic dynamic movement, from a distance resembling a fry swimming and prompting the predator to follow him on the machine.In the last phase (the attack phase), the advantage of an artificial bait is crowned with a sharp tee, the catchiness of which is not lost even after several seasons.
According to users, Rublex Orkla is very good at catching a standing water body and setting the tone to a bite of a medium and large pike. The only valuable disadvantage of this spinner can be considered the high cost, unjustifiably overestimated over a long history of existence in the market.
Virtues
-
very high quality fittings;
-
six modifications in stock;
-
an alluring game, reminiscent of the movement of the fleeing fry;
-
good design of the models, long service life of the coating;
disadvantages
- unreasonably high price.
Williams Wabler
Rating: 4.8
Another representative of the rating of shaken, the internal reserve of modifications has more than 7 different models. Over the course of its existence (over 75 years), with new custom ideas, Wabler made a phenomenal leap in its own popularity even among domestic anglers. The variety of textures (more than 10), color schemes (more than 50), sizes (from 25 to 102 millimeters of length) and weight parameters (from 1.8 to 28 grams) makes it impossible to review the typical movement of the lure, since each separate combination gives a unique result.
The ratio of current consumers to Williams Wabler can be expressed unequivocally: this lure largely suits all segments of the fishing community. And the point here is not so much in price indicators, as in the longevity of a single “piece of iron” and catchability in almost any part of a large country.
Virtues
-
unimaginable number of variations of the spinner in one series;
-
multidimensional movement, depending on the texture of the body and overall dimensions;
-
low price;
-
an effective bait for catching almost the entire river predator (but mostly it’s the pike);
disadvantages
- a very difficult process of selecting the desired model (manifested by diversity).
Mepps syclops
Rating: 4.7
Another representative of the French company Mepps, caught in the rating due to the great popularity in neighboring countries. Actually, it was from there that Syclops first came to domestic waters. Simple and practical, this line (for more than 20 years of existence) managed to acquire a whole scattering of models weighing from 3.5 to 26 grams and the corresponding length from 40 to 90 millimeters. The main "highlight" in the structure of these lures was mediated S-shape, which allows their use in standing water and in water bodies with a shallow current without affecting the attractiveness of the game.
The role of an additional luring element in Mepps Syclops was given to a holographic label that carries the meaning of the texture of the body of the fish. Also, in the hope of securing the predator’s attention when attacking at one element, the lures of individual dimensions are equipped with red cambrets. All these elements were introduced into the model gradually, and in the end formed the very excellent version of the spinner, which receives the admiration of thousands of users.
Virtues
-
an abundance of choices (in size and design);
-
the possibility of fishing in standing waters and on the course;
-
low price;
-
use in some models of additional elements baiting predator;
-
wide popularity in Russia;
-
external believability of the spoon, created by 3D-eyes, relief and holography;
disadvantages
- not found.
Abu garcia toby
Rating: 4.6
Despite the original bends of the body and the presence of wings at the upper part of the Abu Garcia Toby calf is a model that is very close in meaning to Acme Kastmaster. With a fast lead, the resistance of water alternately upsets the left and right sides of the lures, and the wings serve as a kind of sway amplitude amplifier. As a result of this movement, the oscillator begins to resemble a corkscrew moving along a helix (albeit fictitious).
To enhance the luring effect, Abu Garcia decided to double the color of the body of the lures, but not in all color variations.As for the size series, in the Toby lineup there are as many as five, the weight of which varies from 7 to 30 grams. Nevertheless, all of them are somehow sharpened by catching pike, incidentally catching other predatory brethren in the form of perches, ide and rare perch.
Virtues
-
very low price (in comparison with analogues);
-
original movement at different posting speeds;
-
huge variation in sizes and color schemes;
-
high fishing efficiency (improving with a slight modernization by hooking the front sight on the hook);
disadvantages
- not found.
Acme kastmaster
Rating: 4.6
Acme Kastmaster - one of the most extensive lines of spinners in the entire fishing market, with a huge credibility among professional anglers and athletes. To date, an extended list of this bait has as many as 10 models, the difference between them lies in both the overall parameters and design features. With a weight of 2.25 grams, the smallest spinner has a length of only 32 millimeters, enticing a predator (mostly a perch) with intensive play even at low wiring speeds. In turn, the largest model of spinners (SW1151) with a weight of 21 grams and a length of 6 centimeters, besides coloring, has a spot set on a tee, large enough to completely hide it underneath.
Opinion users Acme Kastmaster quite expectedly became one of the leaders of its category, and the only really significant stone in his direction was the debate about the appropriateness of the price. Yes, you will not see painstaking work on external data here, however, this sample is not too similar to the frank hack. Leaving disputes aside, let's say: Kastmaster definitely deserves a place in the rating, and will become one of the most conditional lures in the hands of the pros and in the beginner's collection.
Virtues
-
huge variation in the choice of models (as many as 10 different modifications in the range);
-
the presence of a dozen options for customizing spinners;
-
equipment of the older models of the series with bright front sights;
-
good luring sposbnosti, the presence of the original shades of the game;
disadvantages
- Someone overvalued.
Abu Garcia Pike 40
Rating: 4.5
A spoon from the Swedish manufacturer, sharpened exclusively for catching a trophy pike. It has a complex body shape with small bends and thinning, thanks to which it is able to achieve large amplitudes of oscillations on fast wiring and when working on a current.
All spinners Abu Garcia Pike 40 is ... oddly enough, 40 grams, with a length of 110 millimeters. Recently, the series has gone through a massive update, during which fittings were replaced and several new colors were added. Taking into account the addition, the color set has expanded to 8 variants, which, in general, is not very thick. Taking into account all current characteristics (material costs, finishing, etc.), the cost of this bait turns out to be several times more profitable than the competition. Pike 40 is preferred mainly by professional fishermen who recommend trolling to all segments of the fishing community.
Virtues
-
profitable, in terms of production costs, price;
-
the original form, allowing to show to change the game depending on the type of wiring;
-
rather large sizes, allowing to sift out small predators;
-
good flight data;
disadvantages
- scarcity of choice.
Smith pure
Rating: 4.5
One of the few truly high-quality series of lures from the Japanese company Smith, created to completely cover the needs of anglers in the lures of competitors. Its range includes both small 1.5-gram models designed to catch perches, as well as good 18-gram specimens created for pulling from the depth of a near-trophy pike. It is noteworthy that according to the original plans of the Japanese company Pure was to become an exemplary bait for catching salmon ... but, unfortunately, or fortunately, the plan could not be fully realized.As a result, each model included in the series acquired its own motion animation - somewhere a bit intense, somewhere amplitude, but in general quite interesting.
The only dark spot on the reputation of Pure reflected the rise in price of the series (over the past few years) almost doubled. And everything seems to be quite good: there is catchiness, there is prestige and honor from many experts. However, the price turns away from spinners, it would seem the most loyal audience.
Virtues
-
wide palette of various colors;
-
popularity and priority choice among experts;
-
versatility in catching fish and posting behavior;
-
an abundance of upgrades in size (from 1.5 to 18 grams of weight and 20-40 millimeters of length, respectively);
disadvantages
- high price for the whole range of products.
Blue Fox Matrixx Spoon
Rating: 4.5
Trolling bait with a body kit from VMC is the ideal "weapon" for catching large toothed predators. Well manifested itself in the more traditional wiring type step with twitching, where "pulls" the game due to its own weight. Inside its series is divided into 4 dimensional types, the weight of which varies from 10 to 36 grams.
It is noteworthy that on each vibrator a thin mesh of scaly texture is applied, which makes the body of the spoon spinner look like a real fry. The imitation of movement adds to the credibility of the picture, resembling a slow wiggle with complete loss of vigilance. For the point of attack in the Matrixx Spoon, a 3D eye was chosen, which was a very logical and correct solution (of all possible). In the end, users got a decent lure with an average price, which can be used in absolutely any weather conditions.
Virtues
-
realistic small texture of the body (with micro-relief, imitating scales);
-
average cost.
-
four dimensional categories within one series (10, 15, 23 and 36 grams);
-
presence of a 3D eye;
-
effective movement even at low wiring speeds;
disadvantages
- not found.
Daiwa Silver Creek Masau
Rating: 4.4
Silver Creek Masau universal shakers from one of the leaders of the fishing industry - Daiwa - got into the rating due to the excellent combination of external data and fishing characteristics. Possessing a more flexible body than other representatives of the S.C. line, this spoon has excellent flight data and game stability. The design of the side surface is as close as possible (as far as possible) to the real texture of the body of the fry due to the deep and embossed impression of scales, 3D eyes and body-to-body dividing lines.
The size range of baubles Masau has as many as 4 categories, and differs more in weight indicators. Thus, the smallest member of this series has a weight of 12 grams, while the largest weighs under 30. Diversity of this spinner also gives an abundance of assorted colors with two or more colors involved. Because of the clearly presented amounts of work (colossal), I do not even want to blame Masau for a high price. Yes, with a possible breakage of the fishing line you will be very sorry for the spent (on average) 500 rubles, but with a good outcome, the production will obviously pay for the total costs.
Virtues
-
great design (texture + relief + color);
-
good flight data;
-
abundance of various sizes in the series;
-
presence of a 3D eye;
-
high amplitude luring motion;
disadvantages
- not found.
The best spinner-nezatselyayki on pike
Kuusamo Rasanen
Rating: 4.9
Finnish bauble, which fell to the leading position of the rating due to the excellent manifestation of its Lovce qualities for many years of use in water bodies. One of the features of the Rasanen series is that it contains the lure of a standard and non-clinging structure, which gives it greater versatility. Moreover, within its “piece” of the series, the non-catenary are also divided into two classes. The first one is 5 centimeters long with a weight of 11 grams, it has a hanging double on a rivet and a perfectly balanced (in softness / hardness) flexible mustache.The second, in addition to point changes in dimensions (6 centimeters in length and 15 grams of weight), has a bright red bead embedded in the body, which, together with the overall design, makes a strong impression on the predator being caught.
Kuusam Rasanen has a whole scattering of small advantages, which form that unique style of very catchy baits. Professionals, amateurs and inexperienced fishermen vie with each other about the superiority of this non-sticking in its class, even despite the rather high nominal price. However, the volume of catch and impressions from fishing is guaranteed to be worth it.
Virtues
-
The optimum ratio of price and quality;
-
good catchability even in heavily overgrown areas;
-
excellent balance of softness / hardness of the safety whiskers;
-
spectacular, complex design, complemented by a red bead (on the largest model);
-
extensive series that includes as many as two kinds of non-gumming;
disadvantages
- not found.
Blue Fox Lucius Weedless
Rating: 4.8
High-performance, non-chained, delivered to the market in three fundamentally different designs. Lucius Weedless's lightest sample from Black Fox has 20 grams of weight and a riveted single crochet hook with a very flexible safety tendril. The average 26-gram model of the series is equipped with a twin with the same method of fastening, the hooking of which actually turned out to be significantly higher than that of the twin. The third, the largest model of the spinner has a double hook suspension design and 36 grams of weight, which leads to almost perfect flight data without the use of an additional weight.
Coloring Blue Fox Lucius Weedless practically sweeps aside the standard use of scanty monochromatic colors, limiting itself, perhaps, to the only model decorated with silver. All other options somehow represent a mixture of several colors at once with a smooth flow of one to another or clearly defined boundaries. However, on the reservoir, they all express themselves exceptionally well - fishing on a grassy place always presents a lot of trophy pike.
Virtues
-
the striking difference between the models in the series, not only in size but also in design;
-
the possibility of long-distance casting;
-
good luring functions;
-
the choice of experts over several seasons of fishing;
-
reasonable price of the entire range (in relation to the quality of work);
disadvantages
- not found.
RB Atom-N
Rating: 4.7
RB Atom-N brass jigger is a new word in catching pike on a non-clinging hook. The whole essence of this model is the original approach to execution. In general, the classical form is complemented by a game of thicknesses all over the body of the bait, which creates a deliberate undulating movement, effectively encouraging predators to make a sharp attack. The bait is produced in three dimensions for 7, 10 and 18 grams, the most popular of which were the first two models.
The RB Atom-N is also fine in terms of color. In addition to the standard monophonic or combined colors (brass, bronze, silver or gold), the bait has a dark and gradient color, made with a smooth transition from red (through yellow) to green. By the standards of the average market price, the cost of N-ki is the most optimal, especially in relation to quality. Hooks and mustache on them breaks extremely rarely, because of what the service life may be five years.
Virtues
-
high durability (in extreme cases, single hooks are soldered);
-
good luring ability, tied to the movement and appearance;
-
the presence of three size series in the series;
-
low cost;
disadvantages
- not found.
Rapala Minnow Spoon
Rating: 4.7
The most famous Finnish lure Rapala Minnow Spoon simply could not escape the rating of the best non-gutters for pike fishing. Possessing a realistic customization of the surface for a real fish, this bait has everything that a few competitive models always lack. It is noteworthy that the method of applying paint to the surface allows you to maintain the condition of appearance for many years, albeit in a slightly faded version.
Too perfect to catch in the open, Minnow Spoon does an excellent job with bypassing grass snags and thickets, showing a decent amount of effective hooks. With different size options (from 50 to 100 millimeters) the lure has equally good flight characteristics due to the prevalence of weight. Given the low cost, bait often becomes a priority choice for new anglers, which is very rational in terms of ease of handling and replenishing the collection of catchable gear.
Virtues
-
excellent fishing performance in clean water and in overgrown places;
-
realistic customization under the body of the fish;
-
resistant coating outer surface spinners;
-
low price;
-
wide range of products (5 size ranges);
disadvantages
- not found.
Balzer Colonel Z Weed
Rating: 4.6
Blazer's catchy nezatleplyayka got into the rating due to the strong luring system tied to a combination of realistic texture of the body, a clockwork movement and bright plumage of a double hook. Unlike a number of competitors, the Colonel Z Weed design is pragmatic and extremely rational. The fact is that the sharp double with a mustache is attached to the body of the bait not rigidly, but by means of a small bolt, as a result of which the bait automatically becomes maintainable and long-lived. Due to this mounting anglers have a chance to widely vary the size of the hook, thereby greatly affecting the total weight of the product in the assembly.
According to consumers, the effectiveness of Colonel Z Weed depends largely on the presence of a bright luring element. The already meager plumage comes off spinners in the very first days of fishing, baring the hook and somewhat reducing the excitement of the local fauna. This model is very inexpensive and can be widely used by both professional catchers and beginners from fishing.

The best winter lure on pike
Nils Master Dueler
Rating: 4.9
Vertical baits Dueler from the company Nils Master - the right and effective tool for a stable bite of pike in the winter fishing season. It is made by hand in three different size variations - 45, 55 and 75 millimeters with a weight of 4, 5 and 9 grams, respectively. Due to the presence of petals in the upper part of the calf, it shows a smooth planning game with a sheer luster, very tempting not to grab the attention of a predator.
A bright tricolor drop in the central part of the hook, which acts as a “red rag” for the toothed predator (as well as perch and rare perch of perch), became a peculiar “highlight” of this lure. The current level of cost Dueler, even in the smallest variation, is the reason for the discontent of many fans of winter fishing, not to mention beginners and inexperienced anglers. Therefore, it turned out that the main audience of this model were professionals and winter athletes participating in the underwater fishing championships.
