Solvkroken Skimmer are compact suspending wobblers designed for trout, perch and other freshwater predators. The series was created for active spinning, long casting and a strong, clearly noticeable action even in more demanding fishing conditions.
The wider body shape and pronounced rolling action make Skimmer highly effective at provoking predatory fish during the retrieve. The lure performs very well both with steady retrieves and more aggressive twitching techniques.
Skimmer combines fine wobbling action with stronger body rolling, pushing plenty of water and remaining highly visible to predators even in darker or slightly stained water conditions.
The suspending design allows the lure to stay motionless in the strike zone during pauses, often triggering bites exactly at the moment the retrieve stops. The lure also reacts very well to short twitches and stop&go presentation.
The Skimmer series was developed mainly for trout and perch fishing, but it also performs very well for chub, ide and other predators that respond to wobblers with a stronger and more visible action.
The lure works especially well in colder water conditions, when predatory fish often react better to a more stable and readable lure action.
The built-in weight transfer system improves casting distance and accuracy, helping anglers cover more water without losing control over the lure action. Once in the water, Skimmer quickly stabilizes and tracks consistently during the retrieve.
Skimmer is equipped with strong BKK treble hooks and available in a wide range of colours, including both natural baitfish patterns and more aggressive trigger finishes.
Solvkroken is one of Norway’s most recognised fishing tackle brands. Since 1930, the company has been producing pilkers, spoons and fishing lures designed for demanding Scandinavian waters. Solvkroken products are trusted by anglers targeting cod, coalfish, halibut and other predatory species in both coastal and offshore environments.
The Solvkroken range includes classic sea pilkers, vertical jigging lures, salmon and trout spoons, as well as modern spinning lures. Many of these models have been used successfully for decades and remain a popular choice among anglers travelling to Norway.
Solvkroken is especially well known for its sea fishing pilkers. Series such as Svenskepilk, Stingsilda, Jensen Pilk, Solvpilk, Calamar and Storm are designed for fishing in deep water and strong tidal currents. Their proven shapes help the lure reach the desired depth quickly while maintaining a stable action during vertical jigging.
Anglers fishing the Norwegian fjords value these lures for their durability, saltwater resistance and reliable performance on the drop. Depending on the model, they can be used for traditional vertical jigging, active lift-and-drop presentations or more technical sea fishing methods.
Another important part of the Solvkroken range is its legendary spoon selection. Models such as Aura Lillauren, Morild Trout, Spesial Classic, Salamander Trout, Vikingsild and Buch Salmon have earned a strong reputation among salmon and trout anglers across Scandinavia.
Their carefully developed shapes and attractive action make them effective in rivers, lakes and coastal waters. These spoons are widely used when targeting salmon, sea trout, brown trout and other predatory fish species.
At Fishing-Mart you will find a wide selection of original Solvkroken products, including sea pilkers, spoons, jigs, soft baits and modern spinning lures. The range combines long-established classics with new designs developed for contemporary fishing techniques.
Whether you are preparing for a Norwegian sea fishing trip or looking for proven lures for salmon and trout fishing, Solvkroken remains one of the most respected Scandinavian fishing tackle brands.
