The Sucker Punch 190 MR is a soft lure designed by Illex. This shad is intended for pike fishing and showcases the expertise and innovation of Illex. Inspired by the famous Nitro Shad series, this lure embodies all the quality and experience of the brand. The major challenge was to design a soft lure in the shape of a forage fish, offering realism and a large volume. This challenge was brilliantly met!
The tonic material of the Sucker Punch 190 MR is similar to that used in the Nitro Shad, and it is combined with a wide tail that gives the lure a wobbling swim, even at very low speed. This feature is crucial to attract the most wary pikes even with a linear and slow recovery.
The rigging of the Sucker Punch 190 MR is of high quality, including an ultra-sharp single hook on the back and a triple ventral hook mounted on a rolling swivel. This configuration offers better fish hooking and less risk of unhooking during fights while preserving the integrity of the lure. Easy to animate, a simple linear recovery is enough to trigger frank attacks. Its density allows it to reach long distances during casting, making it an ideal choice for fishing in large lakes or rivers.
The Sucker Punch 190 comes in three distinct versions to adapt to various fishing situations:
- The SR (Shallow Runner) version is perfect for exploring shallow areas between 0.20 and 0.80 meters, just above the weeds.
- The MR (Medium Runner) version is recommended for fishing between two waters or in weed gaps, between 1m and 2m50 deep.
- The DR (Deep Runner) version is ideal for hunting large pikes in deep waters.
This lure adapts to all environments and fishing destinations, whether in the Netherlands, Ireland, Sweden, France, Spain or even Quebec. Its versatility and effectiveness make it a must-have reference for the pursuit of large pikes. The realism of its swim, combined with its robustness, ensures impressive results, regardless of the fishing environment. Whether you are an amateur or professional fisherman, the Sucker Punch 190 MR from Illex will meet all your expectations.
