The Pirate Lures Teaser 12cm is based on Pirate Lures proven Seaducher but with the addition of a paddle tail. The Teaser shares the Seaducers unique characteristics, their action, asymmetrical shape, but also their robustness.
The narrow tail and paddle action of the Pirate Lures Teaser 12cm similar to a sandeel or small baitfish, but yet still gives strong enough vibrations to be detected by a predator. Body roll to show both the sides and the belly plus small body flex to the sides and some gliding when twitched, to closely imitate a panicked baitfish. Still, good stability to fish in the tidal currents. Tail action to start from slow retrieve to a stronger vibration with faster pace.
Much experimenting with the different tail lengths, shapes and sizes of the paddle were tried before the final finished product was created. The changes added bit stiffer and slimmer tail for faster, low amplitude and high frequency vibration and a hook slot in the belly to improve hook ups.
Rigged with weighted offset hook for shallow water and slow retrieve, with jig head or cheburashka rig for fishing in the deeper waters. Reefs, tidal channels, deep drop offs are easy with an added extra weight.
The smaller Pirate Lures Teaser 12cm is a great early season lure or for when you need a more subtle presentation. it is also good when the fish are looking for smaller prey items.
