Duo Realis Spinbait 80 is minnow type lure originally made to target suspended bass in lakes, but also can be used for other fish species.
Asp (Aspius aspius) is very attractive predatory fish from
the Cyprinid family that lives in European rivers and lakes. While in
lakes is almost elusive with artificial lures, in rivers can be caught
with several fishing techniques. Asp is sometimes compared with salmon,
because it can be caught with streamers and single/double handed fly
rods, like salmon somewhere at Alaska or at the other parts of the
world. Of course, only a few experienced fly fishermen are using fly
rods to catch this fish on our Croatian rivers like river Sava, while
the many are using spin rods and minnow type lures.
Duo Realis Spinbait 80 lure is perfect for asp because it can imitate bleak (Alburnus alburnus),
and bleak is its basic food. I would recommend to use this lure like
any other lures made for finesse techniques. Do it simple and retrieve
it slow. Do not hurry, just use the flow of the river to keep the
contact with your lure. Spinbait is working all the time while it is in
river, even you don’t feel much of its vibrations. Usage of medium heavy
rod and reel is recommended with thinnest possible fishing braid and
fluorocarbon leader of diameter 0,23 – 0,28 mm. No matter what kind of
fish is your target, you should try this lure and sooner or later you
will gain your confidence. Tight lines!
