Which Gunki hard lure should you choose?

Each Gunki model combines technical skill and effectiveness. A Scunner or a Grouper for hunting big pike, a Rodan for trout, a Gamera for perch, a Shocker Vib for zander or a Megalon for bass.

The lure colour

As for colour, the starting point will be the environment. The clearer it is, the more natural tones you will use; the more opaque it is, the more flashy colours or dark shades — even black — you will use. This is a base to be adjusted depending on the day.

The lure's vibration

As for vibration, the noisier the environment, the more we need our lure to be detected, and the more we will try to emit vibrations through the swimming action and the animation we impart to the lure. The presence or absence of rattles can also be a determining factor. The calmer the environment, the more we can use discreet lures and slow animations.

Size

Size will also be a determining factor. In general, the colder the water, the larger the lure used. However, you also need to take into account the size of the prey and adapt your choice based on what you see beneath the surface and the target species.

Classic sizes by species:

• - Perch: 3 to 8cm
• - Zander: 5 to 12cm
• - Pike: 10 to 20cm
• - Bass: 8 to 14cm

These few tips remain a starting point, and in the absence of bites or follows, don't hesitate to think outside the box!
