Illex Slick Bait Swimbait 12cm

Illex Slick Bait Surface Lure for Perch and Pike

The Illex Slick Bait is an exceptional surface lure that opens up new possibilities for fishing for perch and pike thanks to its unique design. Measuring 12 cm in length and weighing 15 g, this floating lure strikes the perfect balance between casting distance and natural presentation.

Innovative sliding action for maximum bites

Unlike classic topwater lures, the Slick Bait moves with an unusual sideways sliding motion. This slide walking action convincingly imitates an injured fish drifting disorientated on the surface. For lurking predators, this behaviour is an irresistible signal of easy prey.

The swimming direction can be controlled by the attachment point of the line. The body has two continuous swivel rings on the sides. When attached to the right side, the lure glides to the left, and vice versa. This technique enables you to move the lure away from your location, reducing the likelihood of being spotted.

Well-thought-out design for increased catch rates

Fine silicone strips on the gills create controlled water resistance and enhance the iridescent movement. ABS pectoral fins add realism and prevent the single hook from getting caught in the line when casting. Three integrated glass balls act as a rattle system, emitting acoustic stimuli even when the lure is moved slowly. The soft elastomer tail reacts to the slightest movement, enhancing the natural effect.
