"Kinetic" Flat Matt - NEW to the UK and only available by phone. Limited stock.

 

Big fish eats small fish

As we all know big fish eats smaller fish. When a huge halibut settles down in a shallow, sandy area some of the plaice, flounders, and dabs have to watch their backs. If not, they can pretty sure to get chewed up.

Flatt Matt has a swimming action that imitates a smaller plaice, flounder or dab panicking when they realize there’s a far bigger fish looking from below…

Flat Matt comes in realistic or psyched up colors, that will turn on any big halibut, cod etc. All are made with premium quality, chemically sharpened sea fishing hooks, durable painting and active eyes.

 

"Kinetic" Red Ed - NEW to the UK and only available by phone. Limited stock.  Only available in 395g.

 

Several scientific reports show that halibut spend a considerate part of their lifespan in very deep water. Down here red fish (Sebastes marinus) and rockfish (Sebastes alutus) are the main food source. Not a lot of anglers fish in a depth of 100-300 meters when they go for halibut, but you can be sure that when the big ones move into shallow water they will remember their favorite snack.

The results from our secret test fishing at the Nordic Sea Angling camps suggest that this is not just a lure – it should be considered as an important part of the food chain!

Red Ed comes in realistic or psyched up colors that will turn on any big halibut cod etc. All are made with premium quality, chemically sharpened sea fishing hooks, durable painting and active eyes.
