Solvkroken Calamar is a series of sea fishing pilkers developed for effective fishing in deep Norwegian fjords and offshore waters of the North Atlantic. The distinctive body shape allows the lure to reach great depths quickly while maintaining stable action even in strong currents.
The Calamar design generates attractive flashes and additional vibration during retrieval, helping to draw the attention of cod, coalfish, ling and other predatory fish feeding close to the bottom.
During the drop, the lure produces noticeable movement and vibration, while on pauses it glides and swings to the sides. This behaviour imitates a weakened or escaping baitfish and often triggers aggressive strikes, even in challenging fishing conditions.
Its high weight and streamlined profile allow the Solvkroken Calamar to sink rapidly and maintain excellent contact with the lure at depth. This is particularly important when fishing deep water locations where strong currents can make lure control more difficult.
Solvkroken Calamar is a proven sea fishing lure for anglers targeting large cod, coalfish, ling and halibut. Fast sinking performance, attractive action on the drop and durability in harsh saltwater environments have made this series a trusted choice for Norwegian sea fishing adventures.
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.
