Spro Heavy Duty Stinger 18kg 8cm 2 7x7

Spro Heavy Duty Stinger 7x7 — Fewer Missed Strikes on Soft Plastics

The Spro Heavy Duty Stinger is a purpose-built stinger (trailing hook) rig designed to slash miss-bite rates when working soft plastic lures aggressively. This variant carries a size 2 treble hook on an 8 cm wire and is supplied as a pack of 2.

Supple 7x7 Stainless Steel Wire Eliminates Memory

The 49-strand (7x7) stainless steel wire is exceptionally smooth and pliable, with virtually no memory effect. That means the stinger hangs naturally behind your lure rather than springing out of position after storage — keeping it in the strike zone exactly where you need it.

Gamakatsu 13B Treble Hook — Sharp and Secure

The hook is a Gamakatsu 13B treble, known for needle-sharp points and excellent holding strength. The stinger eye simply loops over the main hook eye, and the built-in snap locks it in place to prevent it from sliding down the lure during the retrieve or a hard strike.

Choose the Right Variant

The Heavy Duty Stinger range covers different wire lengths and hook sizes to match the lure dimensions and predator species you're targeting. Select a shorter stinger for compact shads on perch and zander; go longer for big paddle tails aimed at pike and large zander.

• Size 2 · 8 cm — current product — compact trailing-hook length suits medium shads (8–12 cm); good all-round choice for zander and perch with an 18 kg / 4 lb wire rating

• Size 2 · 10 cm — same hook size, slightly longer drop for medium-to-large shads

• Size 2 · 12 cm — extended length for larger medium shads or when a longer stinger arm is preferred

• Size 1 · 8 cm — one step up in hook gap; suited to larger shads targeting zander and pike

• Size 1 · 10 cm — size 1 hook with mid-length wire for bigger lures

• Size 1 · 12 cm — size 1 hook on a long arm for large soft plastics

• Size 4 · 6 cm — smallest hook size, short arm; ideal for slim or small shads on perch

• Size 4 · 7 cm — size 4 hook with a touch more length for finesse rigs

• Size 4 · 8 cm — size 4 hook at medium length; versatile small-lure option
