Fiiish Candy Shrimp Colours

New for 2018, the Fiiish Candy Shrimp lure. A new saltwater lure designed to target sea-bream, although it will slay all manner of saltwater species. The lure is metal, allowing you to fish at depth should you require. The lure’s action is described as an undulating and planing action. The Candy Shrimp looks to be available in 2 colours, including UV and paint that glows. More info should become available after the major French tackle shows in the coming weeks.

Three weights and sizes exist at launch:
55mm 30g
72mm 60g
83mm 90g

IMA Soft Plastic Lures

ImaYou may not have heard of IMA before, unless you’re already reasonably interested in lure fishing. In comparison to lure manufacturers like Rapala, IMA is the new kid on the block and part of a cool, new wave of tackle manufacturers reaching our shores from Japan. The cool kids love them. Anoraks like me love them. But best of all, the fish seem to love them too. Out of Continue reading “IMA Soft Plastic Lures”

Decoy Pluggin Single Hooks

Decoy Pluggin SinglesIt’s that time of year again. You can feel the first warmth in the sunshine, there’s buds on the trees and the birds are singing. As a lure angler you’re starting to think ‘Bass’.

If like me, you haven’t already set yourself up for the coming season, now’s the time to make sure all your favourite lures are ready to go, the moment the fish are in. For hard bodied lures (plugs) that usually means checking all the hardware for signs of corrosion, bluntness or weakness. While I normally replace any iffy trebles with the excellent Daiichi Bleeding Bait treble hooks, at the end of last summer I started to play around with single hooks on some of my lures. After reading conflicting views on various fishing forums Continue reading “Decoy Pluggin Single Hooks”

Lures for Plaice Fishing

Plaice on a LureIf you follow Fishing Tackle UK, you might have noticed that we got a bit carried away with the LRF (Light Rock Fish) style of ultralight lure fishing last year. It consumed our angling activities and became a constant distraction from other exciting types of fishing. While my passion for LRF continues to grow, at the beginning of 2012 we made an active, healthy, decision to make HRF (Hard Rock Fish) an intended focus this year.

Yesterday, our Continue reading “Lures for Plaice Fishing”
