Description

Pioneer is a trolling lure with a wide, attractive side-to-side action. While being trolled, it moves with broad swings, effectively provoking predators to strike. It runs up to about 1.5 meters deep, making it perfect for targeting shallower areas and fish feeding closer to the surface. A great choice for pike trolling.

Field Notes

This is a shallow-running trolling lure built for pike. It has a wide side-to-side action and is meant to be pulled steadily to trigger reaction strikes, especially over shallow flats and other areas where fish are feeding near the surface. Best used when you want to cover water and keep the bait running around 1.5 meters deep.

Pros

  • Wide, attractive side-to-side trolling action
  • Runs shallow for covering pike water near the surface
  • Good choice for reaction strikes

Cons

  • Primarily a trolling bait, so it is less versatile for other presentations
  • Shallow running depth limits use in deeper water
