Salmo Hornet 2.5cm 0.5–1.0m 1.5g Holo Super Bleak

Salmo Hornet — Micro Wobbler That Fools Predators Across the Water Column

The Salmo Hornet in 2.5 cm / 1.5 g is a compact, fast-working mini wobbler (miniature crankbait) built for spinning and trolling on a wide range of predator species. At just 1.5 g with a running depth of 0.5–1 m, it excels wherever a subtle, shallow presentation makes the difference.

Versatile Action in Current and Still Water

The Hornet performs equally well fished upstream or downstream. Working against the current at a slower pace or racing downstream with a quicker retrieve both trigger strikes. Short pauses near likely holding spots are especially effective. In still water, cast-and-retrieve or gentle trolling with occasional rod-tip pulses draws reactive bites — the lure's tight, vigorous wobble transmits all the way back through the rod blank.

VMC Black Nickel Hook on a Polycarbonate Lip

A single VMC Black Nickel treble hook delivers sharp, reliable hook-ups on even tentative takes. The polycarbonate diving lip is precisely tuned to produce the Hornet's signature action at the target depth of 0.5–1 m, staying stable across a wide range of retrieve speeds. Light tackle — thin line, small snap or swivel — is recommended to let the lure work at its best.
