HK Varma Taimen 13 cm Plug

A classic among trolling lures in Finland, the HK Varma Taimen 13 cm has built a strong reputation over the years as one of the most reliable choices for trout and landlocked salmon. Its success in both clear and challenging waters makes it a must-have in every troller’s tackle box. The model has also proven to be highly effective for zander during the warm summer months.

The plug is crafted from lightweight balsa wood, giving it a lively and sensitive swimming action. With its strongly searching and irregular movement, it attracts predatory fish even when they’re hard to tempt. A stable swimming depth of around 1.5 meters is achieved thanks to the scooped nose design, making it ideal for trolling in a variety of conditions.

The finishes are selected with both functionality and aesthetics in mind. Chrome, hologram, glitter, tin foil, and painted surfaces provide reflections and color play that draw attention under various lighting and water conditions.

The production of HK Varma plugs always starts with design and meticulous water testing. This particular model was born in Lehmo, Joensuu in North Karelia – and the results speak for themselves.
