Salmo Hornet

Salmo Hornet — The Compact Predator Wobbler for Pike, Perch, Zander and Trout

The Salmo Hornet is a small, fast and highly effective crankbait that covers an impressive range of predatory species — built from polycarbonate and fitted with sharp VMC Black Nickel treble hooks straight out of the box.

Versatile Action in Flowing and Still Water

The Hornet performs equally well casting upstream or downstream, in rivers and still waters alike. Retrieved slowly against the current or quickly with it, the lure maintains a tight, vibrating action that transmits directly through the rod — giving you constant feedback and confidence in the presentation. Short pauses near suspected holding spots frequently trigger a strike.

Ideal for Spinning and Trolling

Whether you are working a river bank with light spinning gear or trolling a lake, the Hornet adapts to both approaches. When trolling, short rod-tip accelerations add an irregular surge that often provokes reaction bites. For best results, use a light setup: small snaps or swivels and thin line to allow the lure full freedom of movement.
