Lucky John W-Worm is a small, slim soft lure with a distinctive split tail. The range includes 3.4 cm (1.5 in) and 6.4 cm (2.5 in) sizes, intended mainly for light fishing for perch, trout and zander.
The thin tail tips move during the drop, gentle lifts and subtle rod-tip movements. This allows the lure to retain a delicate action even when retrieved very slowly or fished with light weights.
W-Worm can be rigged on a light jig head, used on a drop-shot setup or presented with a Carolina rig. It works well with short lifts, slow retrieves just above the bottom and precise presentations around rocks, vegetation and other predator-holding areas.
The smaller 3.4 cm (1.5 in) model is well suited to perch and trout feeding on small prey. The 6.4 cm (2.5 in) version creates a more visible profile and can be used for larger perch and zander.
Lucky John W-Worm is available in a wide range of colours. The 3.4 cm (1.5 in) lures are supplied in packs of 15, while the 6.4 cm (2.5 in) models come in packs of 8.
Lucky John is best known for its wide range of spinning lures designed for perch, zander, pike, trout and other predatory fish. The range includes soft lures, wobblers, inline spinners and spoons that can be matched to different venues, fishing depths and retrieval styles.
Soft lures make up the largest part of the Lucky John range. It includes classic paddle-tail lures, slim profiles for jigging, curly-tail grubs, fork-tail lures, worms and imitations of creatures living close to the bottom. Series such as Tioga, Joco Shaker, S-Shad Tail, Makora, Kubira and Hogy Hog allow anglers to select the right action and size for rivers, lakes and reservoirs.
Lucky John wobblers include small models for trout, chub and perch, as well as larger lures designed for pike and zander. Depending on their construction, they can be retrieved steadily, worked with sharp twitches or used to explore deeper parts of the water column.
The range is complemented by inline spinners and spoons suitable for fishing in current, still waters and trout fisheries. Different sizes and profiles make it possible to choose a lure for slow presentations as well as faster searching retrieves.
Lucky John also offers a limited selection of spinning rods, which form a small addition to the brand’s extensive lure range.
The Lucky John range includes lures for light perch and trout fishing, classic jigging for zander and more powerful spinning for pike. When choosing a lure, it is worth considering the fishing depth, retrieval speed, size of the natural prey and current activity of the fish.
