Salmo Hornet 4cm 1.5–3.1m 3g River Craw

Salmo Hornet — The Small, Fast Predator Lure for Rivers and Still Waters

The Salmo Hornet (4 cm, 3 g) in River Craw is a compact, hard-working crankbait that dives to 1.5–3.1 m and tempts pike, perch, zander, and trout with relentless action you can feel straight through the rod.

Built for Current — Upstream and Down

The polycarbonate bill and tight-wobbling body make the Hornet equally at home fished slowly against the current or retrieved quickly with it. Short pauses near likely lies regularly trigger decisive strikes, making it a go-to for river spinning sessions across a wide range of flow speeds.

Versatile Enough for Still Water Too

Cast it, troll it, twitch it — the Hornet performs in lakes and reservoirs as well as rivers. Brief rod-tip accelerations during a trolling run add an erratic kick that predators find hard to ignore. Two sharp VMC Black Nickel treble hooks convert those follows into landed fish.
