Hearty Rise Valley Hunter Pelagic Curly Softbait 22cm 46g

Hearty Rise Valley Hunter Pelagic Curly — Irresistible Action for Open-Water Predators

The Valley Hunter Pelagic Curly is a 22 cm, 46 g softbait engineered for pelagic (open-water, mid-column) fishing, combining a high-volume body with a unique pintail-plus-micro-curly tail design that triggers predators even on the drop.

Dual-Action Tail That Never Stops Fishing

Where most pintail shads rely on an angler's retrieve to create movement, the Valley Hunter Pelagic Curly adds a small micro-curly twister to the classic pintail tip. This means the lure produces enticing tail flutter during the fall, on a slow drift, or whenever line pressure drops — keeping the bait in the strike zone and working without any rod input.

Voluminous Body, Maximum Pressure Wave

The oversized, full-profile body displaces a significant amount of water, generating a strong pressure wave that alerts predators from a distance. This high-displacement design is particularly effective in deeper or open water where visibility is limited, helping fish locate the bait by lateral line alone before they ever see it.

Choose the Right Variant

The Valley Hunter Pelagic Curly 22 cm / 46 g is available in several configurations. Select the one that best matches your setup and target species:

• Valley Hunter Pelagic Curly 22 cm 46 g — Pintail with micro-curly tail (current product): The full pelagic-action version with the combined pintail and small twister tail. Ideal for open-water predators such as pike, large perch, zander, and asp; excels on slow vertical jigging, gliding rigs, or free-lining in the water column.

• Valley Hunter Pelagic Curly 22 cm 46 g — Angry Roach: Same body, pintail-with-micro-curly tail, finished in the Angry Roach colour — a natural roach imitation suited to clear-water conditions and pressured fish.

• Valley Hunter Pelagic Curly 22 cm 46 g — variant without listed swimming action: Configuration without a specified tail action; check product detail for rigging notes.
