Short overview

The Illex Swing Mikey 11,5 cm is a multi-jointed swimbait lure designed for targeted fishing for pike and other predators in shallow water. Thanks to its floating design, natural S-action, and pronounced tail action, it is an excellent choice for slow retrieves along weed beds, close to the bank, and over shallow areas.

Description

This hard lure is designed for a realistic baitfish presentation, especially when predators are patrolling shallow zones. The three-section jointed body and small front lip provide stable action at a shallow running depth, while the floating characteristic helps when working the lure above cover and vegetation. The Swing Mikey performs particularly well with a slow steady retrieve, stop&go presentation, and gentle twitches, making it highly effective for varied situations in predator spinning.
