Description
The trolling feather is the quintessential lure for coastal trolling, used by anglers from generation to generation. Its slender, almost translucent profile makes it highly effective against all species that prefer to feed in the upper water column, where it convincingly imitates the swimming action of a small fry or baitfish.
Each feather comes complete with leader and hook, ready to use. Pack of 2 pieces.
Target species
The 5 cm size is ideal for smaller predators such as saddled bream, horse mackerel, pompano and occasionally small sea bass. The 10 cm size targets larger pelagic species such as bonito, dorado and other sizeable predators.
How to troll the feather
To bring out its attractive properties, the feather should be trolled at reduced speeds, between 1.5 and 3 knots, positioning the lure outside the engine wake at least 30 metres from the stern. Rigging should be done with soft, fine-diameter monofilament (0.20–0.25 mm) and long leaders free of any added weight.
