Hard lures can be used for almost all fish and situations. Still most often used when the water is not deep. Hard baits have the advantage of being available in all sizes and decors. In addition, there are different versions: sinking (S), floating (F) and suspending (SP). This allows us to cover an extremely wide range of situations.
Do you want to search a large area for fish? Don’t worry, Crankbaits can handle it! Crankbaits are bulbous, short hard lures. Due to this shape they have extreme water resistance and displace a lot of water. In addition, they usually have a very strong action. The crankbait does not slide through the water, but rather vibrates.
Want to tackle top water in the summer? Minnows and top water baits are the right choice! Moody trout? Minnows are well suited for twitching and jerking depending on their size. Due to their slim shape they have relatively little water resistance and thus dart out to the sides. For fishing with top water baits we have several forms to choose from. The classic is probably the stick bait. These cigar-shaped hard lures zig-zag (walk-the-dog) on the surface and tease the predators to bite.
These are just a couple examples of application.
PALMS Alexandra AX 43FS
The fast sinking model was first redone as the Palms Alexandra AX 43FS. The initial model was released in 2004 but was later withdrawn. Fish in streams often focus their attention on the water’s surface as the water temperature rises. Thus the splash upon entry is amazing to attract trout.
