This premium manufacturer is not only found in the trout sector. Perch, zander and other fish also love the manufacturer's lures.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBehind every \u003cem\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHMKL wobbler\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e lies a long and intensive development phase. Designer \u003cem\u003eKazuma-Izumi\u003c\/em\u003e, one of the most famous and longest-active anglers in Japan, puts all his experience and energy into perfecting his artificial lures. As a result, all \u003cem\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHMKL wobblers\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e have extremely good running properties, which make these lures true catch guarantors.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHMKL\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e also places great importance on lifelike color decors and lure shapes for all its hardbaits. Thus, in the production of the wobblers, pearl effect coatings or so-called \"Mylar Blades\" built inside, i.e. reflective hologram foils, are often used. The full effect is shown when you move the lures back and forth in the light and, of course, primarily by the catch results in the water, which is why I have included these lures in the online shop.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u0026nbsp;\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe \u003cem\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHMKL - Zagger 38 B1\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e was specially developed for use on the bottom of the water, and here the motto is, sometimes less is more. Especially cautious or passive fish are among the prey of the \u003cem\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eZagger 38 B1\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA tungsten weight on the diving lip ensures quick sinking (FS - Fast Sinking) of the lure. The use of tungsten for the weight on the diving lip ensures enormously good detection of the bottom. Tungsten is also significantly \u003cem\u003esmaller than lead\u003c\/em\u003e at the same weight and \u003cem\u003enon-toxic\u003c\/em\u003e. This weight also ensures a permanent \u003cem\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e45° angle position of the lure\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e. In addition to a very good bite yield, this reduces the risk of snags, as the hooks are lifted from the bottom of the water.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWith its \u003cem\u003elength of 38mm\u003c\/em\u003e and a \u003cem\u003eweight of 2.8g\u003c\/em\u003e, it fits perfectly into the prey pattern of many predatory fish.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe so-called \u003cem\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\"Bottom Bumping\"\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e has become established as a retrieve technique for the \u003cem\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eZagger 38 B1\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e. Here, you let the lure sink to the bottom (keep the line slightly taut!). Then the lure is lightly lifted with the rod tip or 1-2 crank turns are made, and then the lure is allowed to sink back to the bottom, where it stands up. Most bites occur during this phase. Therefore, do not make the pauses too short.\u0026nbsp;\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\"Slow movement with pauses is the key to success here,\" because trout often react to the sinking phase (sinking pellets) more than to the actual movement of the lure.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAlternatively, you can also drag the \u003cem\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eZagger 38 B1\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e very slowly over the bottom. This stirs up a lot of \"dust,\" which also creates an attraction for trout. Here, fleeing prey, such as small crabs or fish, are imitated. Here, too, you should incorporate smaller pauses now and then.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn short: The \u003cem\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eZagger 38 B1\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e should be fished slowly, close to the bottom, and with a lot of feel. Because the bite often comes exactly when you are doing nothing.
