This premium manufacturer is not only known in the trout fishing scene. 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 Japan's best-known and longest-active anglers, 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 characteristics, 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 emphasis on lifelike color patterns and lure shapes for all its hardbaits. Pearl-effect coatings or so-called \"Mylar Blades\" built inside, i.e., reflective hologram foils, are often used in the production of the wobblers. The full effect becomes apparent when you move the lures back and forth in the light and, of course, primarily through their catching success 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 fall prey to 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 the lure sinks quickly (FS - Fast Sinking). The use of tungsten for the weight on the diving lip ensures extremely good detection of the bottom. Tungsten is also significantly \u003cem\u003esmaller than lead\u003c\/em\u003e at the same weight and is \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 rate, this reduces the risk of snags, as the hooks are lifted off the bottom.\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 perfectly matches 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 proven to be the most effective retrieval technique for the \u003cem\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eZagger 38 B1\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e. Here, you let the lure sink to the bottom (keeping the line slightly taut!). Then, the lure is lightly lifted with the rod tip or 1-2 cranks of the reel are made, and then the lure is allowed to sink back to the bottom, where it stands upright. 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, it imitates fleeing prey, such as small crabs or fish. Again, you should include 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. The \u003cem\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eZagger 38 B1\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e does not like hectic movements or too fast retrieval. \u0026nbsp;\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e\u0026nbsp;\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eNo matter where the fish is – the HMKL ZAGGER will get there!\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u0026nbsp;\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIf you want to learn more about different wobbler types and retrieval techniques, simply click \u003cstrong\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.ddg-dohnadealergermany.de\/wobbler-und-crankbaits-fuehrungstechniken-und-einsatzgebiete\/\"\u003eHERE\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Dohna Dealer Germany","offers":[{"title":"FS - Fast Sinking","offer_id":53317577146707,"sku":"000-HMKL - Zagger 38 B1 #Dopink-FS (Fast Sinking)","price":20.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1007\/9954\/5683\/files\/4._HMKL_-_Zagger_38_B1_Dopink.jpg?v=1774287008","url":"https:\/\/www.ddg-dohnadealergermany.de\/en\/products\/hmkl-zagger-38-b1-dopink","provider":"Dohna Dealer Germany","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
