Some of the products we offer are borrowed from the Jackall brand, widely reputable in Japan. You will find swimbaits with the same name. However, the color range is quite different.

A series of soft baits also developed with the same concept. Aimed at black bass fishing, the brand has also created original models to best adapt to European practices. The shape and the phenomenon of transparency at the level of the belly are points that make these baits unique.

The rods are also legendary within the brand. Whether for hunting pike or sea bass in the sea, you will find extremely high-quality blanks, notably this emblematic yellow color. You won't go wrong by choosing a model marked with Illex.

You can also rely on a series of small accessories that will be reliable partners throughout the season. A line, a hook, lead plumb heads, luggage or even rain suits, you will easily find what you need during your fishing sessions.

You've understood it, all you'll need is a good reel to start your first animation, which could well be a traction. The fish should not keep you waiting too long, ensuring you quickly enjoy new sensations. You'll see, you'll ask for more.

A RANGE OF TECHNICAL AND EFFECTIVE LURES

Thanks to its Japanese origins, the fishing brand Illex offers very large series of lures. You can count on rather rare expertise. The models and shapes offered are clearly at the level of the greatest designers and manufacturers.

We will divide the Illex lure collection into 3 large parts which are swimbaits, soft lures, and other lures. Originally designed for black bass fishing, many products can find their place in the search for other species such as sea bass.

Swimbaits are divided into several categories. Anglers will find something for every taste and technique. You can thus rely on surface lures for both sea and freshwater fishing.

There are poppers, stickbaits, and even crawlers present. They will be choice assets for fishing all predators that rise to the water surface like black bass, and also sea bass and perch.

Swimbaits are also represented with some quite exceptional models. They are generally designed to fish shallow areas with a linear animation. But they could become frantic if you ask them to.

You can also rely on lipless vibrations and crankbaits. They will bring you the very best to quickly spot active fish and to marry the bottoms. The color variety will often be very rich for perfect adaptability.

Finally, there will be fish from all horizons earmarked for trout fishing. Colorful, small in size, and meticulously finished, you will hold in your hands small wonders to trigger a reaction from the salmonids.

In the selection of soft lures, you will not be left either. You will rarely find products imitating another. The brand stands out by the originality of its creations as well as their technicality level.

For this or that season, for this or that technique, you will find a shad, a worm or even a colorful creature to mount in different ways. The rubber will generally be quite soft and especially resistant to multiple fish assaults, offering long-term efficiency.

Finally, the brand has reinvented other lures for the greatest pleasure of brand enthusiasts. We particularly think of vibrating blades whether for freshwater or sea, but also spinnerbaits. And the chase for small predators is not left out with series of small pebbles or very innovative concepts on which you can mount your favorite hook.

THE FISHING RODS MARKED ILLEX

Over the years, the brand has developed a real reputation in terms of the quality of a rod for fishing. Called Ashura for its origins, the Illex rod collection extends so that there are also 3 large families.

First of all, you can count on rods for sea fishing. A fish like the sea bass is the main targeted species. But beware, the Element Riders are reliable for many different fish types and fishing conditions, whether it's shad in traction or topwater fishing.

Another series is the collection of fishing rods for predators. This includes a large series of rods for all uses. Spinning or casting, long or short, fast-action or regular, your choice is large.

We would distinguish within this range the generalist series covering perch fishing to pike fishing. But also the Pepper series which includes an exceptional blank for specialists in small predator fishing, trouts, chevesnes… You just need to complete your gear with a high-quality reel and you will be ready to face all situations. 

Finally, the last series is designed for salmonid searching. Exceptional small rods, the whole series presents very specific characteristics, making each model a specific rod. The handle shapes will fit your hand perfectly, as if you and your combo were one.

You've understood it, Illex is a complete brand that excels in what it offers. You can also count on accessories like a fishing line or hooks, which will offer you the same seriousness and quality.
