Quick Overview

The Salmo Hornet Sinking 2.5cm is a compact sinking wobbler lure known for its aggressive action and exceptional effectiveness on smaller waters. It is an ideal choice for anglers targeting chub, trout, perch, and other smaller predators in streams, rivers, and canals.

Description

The Hornet is one of Salmo’s most recognizable models, and the 2.5 cm sinking version allows precise coverage of shallow and mid-water layers. Thanks to its excellent balance and stable performance, the lure works convincingly from the very first retrieve and is highly effective with techniques such as steady retrieve, twitching, and fishing downstream or across the current. It particularly stands out in ultralight and light spinning.
