Salmo Perch

Another hit from Salmo that’s been copied by many lure manufacturers worldwide – and this is the best proof of the unbelievable success of the Perch. The best imitation ever made of a perch and recognized as one of the best trolling lures for trophy pike by pike-fishing experts; also excellent when cast. The two models represent a slightly different, unique action and different diving depth. This means there is a choice of lure for every situation. Available in both Shallow and Deep Runner versions.

The size, shape and colours of this lure made it an instant hit and it just keeps on catching. A slow retrieve is the best option for this lure, it has a big, sideways action so it doesn’t need to be cranked in too fast. You’ll increase your catch rate substantially if you vary the retrieve with plenty of twitches and pauses, as well as bursts of speed, especially near rocky outcrops and weedbeds. This is also a superb lure for trolling, where it tracks true and steady, you can get it down deeper by introducing uptrace lead to your trolling set up. All in all this classic lure really is nearly impossible to fish badly!
