Manns Bait Co. Ltd Swimmin Grub Soft Lure P 110mm - 5pcs - Disc tail

Its worm-shaped, cylindrical body ends in a huge paddle tail, which, once it starts moving, even the largest zander cannot resist.
When guided at the right speed, it creates waves in the water that provoke nearby predators to bite.

And what is the right speed?
Still water and flowing water must be distinguished.

- In flowing water, our job is perhaps even simpler, as the current already generates an enticing tail movement even with a stationary lure. The greatest difficulty here is choosing the size of the jig head. At what speed does it settle back to the bottom? How easy is it to start against the current?
It is especially effective in flowing water.

- In still water, opinions vary. Some believe, though it also depends on the specific water body, that a steady retrieve is effective, while others swear by a sawtooth lifting motion, which they achieve either with the fishing rod or by rapidly reeling in and then stopping the reel.
In both cases, retrieve it faster than a traditional Shad or twisters.


Much also depends on the placement of the jig head; choose a hook large enough that its bend reaches almost to the end of the body, thus achieving perfect hook-up while maintaining the perfect movement of the lure.
