HIGH ACTION WIGGLING PLUG
- Multi-Specie Design
This is not a quick copy…it’s the Charlie Helin original. For over 50 years the Flat Fish has been around and catching fish with it’s one-of-a-kind swimming action. No matter where you are fishing, or what you are fishing for, there is a FlatFish just right for the situation
- Produces Irresistible Trolling Action
FlatFish is a shallow/medium diving plug designed to catch a wide variety of game
fish. This lure produces a wide, strike – producing wiggle when trolled, back trolled
or reeled at slow(slow is good with FlatFish) to medium speed.
For best result, tie line to the round-eyed connector snap provided with lure
.
LAKE
FlatFish can be trolled on a flat line (no weight added) near the surface.
As lake temperatures rise or during sunny conditions, which can drive fish down, add
weight (trolling sinker or dropper line) 40-to-60 inches ahead of lure.
Leaded line, with 6-to-8 foot monofilament or fluorocarbon leader, can also be used to take FlatFish to fish-holding level. When used in conjunction with downrigger, try
running your FlatFish 20-to-40 feet behind downrigger release.
RIVER
FlatFish can be cast cross current and allowed to swing through fish -holding water.
From a boat, FlatFish can be trolled, still fished (by anchoring and using river current
to work lure) or back - trolled (troll FlatFish behind boat while backing boat downriver slower than river current).
ADD SCENT, TIP OR ADD FILLET OF BAITFISH TO LURE
You can make your FlatFish even more effective by adding scent or tipping the trailing hook with worm.
FlatFish effectiveness can be enhanced by wrapping a thin (1/8th inch thick) fillet of sardine, herring, shad or other bait to lure belly.
Correct, rectangle fillet size should be no wider than lure and 1/3 plug length. For best results, centre fillet on the belly eyelet (skin side down) and hold in place by
wrapping with light test mono or elastic thread - finish with 3 or 4 half hitches.
