SAMPLE PACK. 3 blade spinners for a bargain price. Package includes 1 of each of our most popular lures giving you the flexibility to approach most water types and fishing scenarios. Single hook or treble hook option though we recommend singles.
1 x Brown Slow Cruiser for times and conditions where a subtle approach is required. These work brilliantly in clear, slow and shallow conditions.
1 x Rainbow Connector. A larger heavier size 3 lure that catches both rainbows and browns in bigger water with swifter flows.
1 x size 1 Green Meanie. I find these work particularly well cast downstream and retrieved up swift runs for rainbows and alongside banks or under willows for browns. Sometimes you just need to go small to get your hook up.
More details regards each lure below.
All 3 lures for NZ$22.

BROWN SLOW CRUISER lures are our trademark lure.
Based around a genuine gold plated colorado style blade that never tarnishes and which will spin at very slow speeds these lures combine the stealthy trickery of fly fishing with the easy casting of spin fishing.
In deep water let the fly do the work by casting into a deep pool, letting it sink before retrieving in sharp pulses.
Where the Slow Cruiser blade spinner really comes into its own is on slow shallow runs.
Simply cast and retrieve as slowly as you dare.
I personally have found that these spinners will catch trout in conditions when they would typically ignore other spinners.

Approx 5g.
Size 3 blade. Single or treble hook.

The MICRO DOT SLOW CRUISERS are the first of a new range of very small lures designed for use in waters where subtley is key to avoiding spooking wary fish. Be it a small still backwater or a tiny creek there are times when chucking your regular lures around are going to do more harm than good and the Micro Dot range are an attempt to imrove your odd.
The innovation here is small and simple. We're using tiny Size 1 Colorado blades, minimal bead work but have focussed on blinging up the flies to make them even more attractive to a hungry fish.
These lures are very light, not much more than 2 grams. They will still cast a fair distance on light gear but certainly not as far as some other lure. But thats not the water or presentation style they are designed for.
Available in a range of colours.
NZ$8.00.

The KIHIKIHI SLOW CRUISER is our attempt at a cicada mimicking blade spinner but really it will imitate a range of green insects.
Quite small and very light- 4g approx- it can be retrieved at super slow speeds and in shallow water. It will also ride high in deeper water mimicking the behaviour of a water logged bug.
Size 2 black and green colorado blade and single hook only.
NZ$8.50.

The CANNIBAL PERCH SLOW CRUISER is our perch specific blade spinner. After much experimentation we were a little disconcerted to discover that the most effective colour pattern for perch was an exaggerated perch pattern with lots of reds with dark green stripes.
We have found the best hook set up on these is a small size treble as it ensures hook ups whilst also avoiding the weed that a larger treble would catch, and perch love weedy water. Also available in a single hook version for catch and release if you're not keen on eating whats got to be one of the best table fish around.
This is a relatively small light lure that can be retrieved very slowly enabling you to swim just above the bottom where the perch hang out.
Size 2 bright red and green colorado blade, available in treble or single hook.
NZ$8.00.

Style/hook options:

Cannibal Perch Regular treble hook Cannibal Perch Single hook

The GREEN MEANIE lures have proved very effective on rainbow trout.
A simple green and black French bladed spinner that is weighted with tungsten, glass and brass to cast a mile and run moderately deep.

The addition of a green feather fly to the hook encourages nibbles from even paranoid trout.

The RAINBOW CONNECTOR are a big thumper of a lure designed specifically with angry rainbow trout in mind. They are bright and flashy and the size #3 blade sets up some serious vibrations in the water.
Ironically however in the rivers I fish I find its been big brown trout that have been taking them but then these rivers aren't in fact populated by rainbows so its not that strange a thing I guess. Roll on this years trip to Taupo!
Features bright colours in both the blade and the fly and tungsten beads on top of the big brass main body mean it casts like a bullet and runs super deep in big water.
Size #3 only (at this stage). Single or treble hook.

NZ$8.50

The SIMPLE DRESSED HEX are also intended to mimic whitebait during the run.
Nothing fancy about these ones at all, a 7g solid hex body that will cast a mile with a size 8 hook dressed with white and red feathers and a tail of holographic bling. .
NZ$6.50

The RED EYE features a black wooly bugger fly with a long red tail teamed with a red and black french blade spinner.
We opted to double the tungsten beads on this one so that it will cast fast and accurate as a bullet and sink quickly to run at a good depth.
Designed in response to requests for a black and red spinner and having tested it a few times I can see why.
Currently available in size#2 blade. Single or treble hook.
NZ$8.50

The 'DEEP YELLOW' is our most basic lure. It was the first pattern I made when I first started making lures and before they got all 'fancy' with flies and stuff.
Yellow and black had always been my favourite spinner colour, I've caught 100s of trout using similar lures.
Particularly awesome lures in slightly flooded discoloured rivers, let them swing round with the current and retrieve them as slowly as you can under the bank. -Never fails that trick in dirty rivers. Or just cast and retrieve with the current in a clean river too. The style of spinner I fell in love with and that started this whole crazy thing.
Size #1, #2 and #3 available. Single or treble hook.
NZ$7.00

Deep Yellow #1 treble hook Deep Yellow #1 single hook Deep Yellow #2 treble hook Deep Yellow #2 treble hook Deep Yellow #3 treble hook Deep Yellow #3 single hook

Have a colour combination of blade spinner that you just can't find? The 'ROGUE ELEMENT' is that lure. Basically what I'll do is paint and coat a french blade for you in your chosen colours/pattern and tie a fly to match. Just contact me when sending your order to tell me what you are after.
Personally I find blacks with greens, yellows and browns work well where I am but if you prefer lavendar and rose thats entirely up to you.
As these are made especially for you it would be great if you ordered more than one..
Better photo of eg's coming when I get my camera fixed...
