Nils Master Spearhead 8 cm Plug

Nils Master Spearhead 8 cm is an iconic plug with a strong reputation, particularly in the salmon-rich waters of Teno River—and for good reason. This plug helped its creator, Kalevi Kangas, achieve several record catches, sometimes hauling in as many as four 15.5 kg salmon in a single day! Ideal for targeting large trout, perch, and pike, the Spearhead is highly effective for both casting and trolling.The Spearhead’s searching, tight swimming motion mimics small fish and entices predator fish to strike. With its unique design and weighting, it’s especially effective for casting. Its diving depth of 2.5 meters and floating design mean it quickly reaches the right depth and rises back to the surface when reeling stops. Made from certified balsa wood and reinforced with a strong stainless steel through-wire, this handmade plug is built to withstand even the toughest fishing challenges.Every Nils Master plug is test-fished and pre-tuned for optimal swimming action, though you can fine-tune the movement via the nose loop to suit your needs. Avoid excessive bending of the plastic lip, and allow the plug to air dry after a long fishing day to keep it in top condition.Key Features:• Body: Certified balsa wood, lightweight with sensitive swimming action• Hook: VMC 9632 BZ-4, reliable hook for any situation• Length: 8 cm / 3"• Weight: Approx. 14 g• Frame Wire: Stainless steel, highly durable• Swimming Depth: Around 2.5 meters• Floating Model: Rises to the surface when reeling stops• Craftsmanship: Authentic Finnish quality and precisionFinlandia-Uistin Oy produces traditional, authentic Finnish handcrafted lures using techniques proven effective worldwide for over 60 years.
