Description
The Salmo Fatso 12cm 71g Sinking is a powerful predator jerkbait designed for anglers targeting pike and other large predatory fish. Its distinctive wide-bodied profile and carefully balanced construction create an attractive action that gives the Fatso its unmistakable character in the water.
The larger 12cm sinking model weighs 71g, providing a substantial prey profile and allowing anglers to work the lure through different depths. Its sinking design gives excellent control over the water column, making it suitable for searching deeper areas, drop-offs, weed edges and other likely predator holding spots.
The Fatso can be worked using jerks, pulls, pauses and steady retrieves, giving anglers plenty of options for adapting the presentation to fish activity and conditions.
