SunsetStrike Trout Spoon Lure 3.4 cm 4.8g for NZ Trout & Perch
Product Video
Vivid Action for Clear Waters and Pressured Trout
The SunsetStrike Trout Spoon Lure is purpose-built for trout and perch fishing in New Zealand’s clear lakes and rivers. Its compact 3.4 cm size and 4.8 g weight deliver a fluttering action that appeals to cautious or pressured fish. With a bold orange-to-green gradient, dark perch stripes, and a realistic eye, it mimics young perch and baitfish—key forage species for NZ trout.
This lure performs best during sunrise, sunset, or midday when light triggers strong contrasts underwater. Cast it near weed edges, submerged structure, or lake drop-offs. Its compact size makes it ideal for ultralight setups, and the single barbed hook ensures effective hook-ups while complying with local regulations.
Designed for New Zealand Waters
Unlike generic spoons, this spoon lure has been tuned for Kiwi conditions. It shines in clear lake systems like Lake Taupō and Lake Wānaka and thrives in tailraces like the Ohau Canal. Retrieve at a steady pace with short pauses to enhance the fluttering action. This technique triggers reaction strikes from both trout and perch.
