Gloog Parys is a series of floating crankbait lures featuring a distinctive, high-frequency swimming action, designed for predator fishing in rivers and still waters. These compact fishing lures are particularly suitable for targeting chub, ide, trout and perch. Their construction allows them to maintain a pronounced swimming action in both moderate and stronger currents, as well as during steady retrieves in lakes and ponds. The Parys range includes two sizes, 4 cm (1.57 in) and 5 cm (1.97 in), allowing anglers to select the appropriate lure for different fishing conditions and target species.
The defining feature of Gloog Parys crankbait lures is their tight, aggressive swimming action. Their distinctive body shape and narrow, elongated diving lip, with the line attachment point positioned directly on the lip, produce rapid vibrations, pronounced side flashing and a relatively narrow tail movement. This combination creates noticeable water displacement and vibration that can attract the attention of predatory fish, including those feeding less actively. The design helps the lure maintain its characteristic action in flowing water while also performing well with a steady retrieve in still waters.
Gloog Parys 40NF is a floating crankbait measuring 4 cm (1.57 in) and weighing 2.5 g, developed primarily for chub, ide, brown trout and perch fishing. It is particularly well suited to exploring shallow river riffles, rocky banks, current seams and areas with changing water flow. Despite its compact size and low weight, the lure maintains its distinctive swimming action even in stronger currents. In lakes and ponds, it can be retrieved at a moderate speed when targeting perch and other predatory fish. Its running depth is approximately 1.2 m when casting and retrieving, increasing to around 1.5 m when trolling.
Gloog Parys 50NF is the larger version, measuring 5 cm (1.97 in) and weighing 5 g. Designed for fishing in both rivers and still waters, its additional weight makes longer casts easier and allows anglers to reach more distant fishing spots. Its energetic swimming action makes it a versatile choice when targeting larger perch, trout, chub and other predatory species. The lure reaches a running depth of approximately 1.5 m when casting and retrieving and up to around 2 m when trolling, offering greater depth coverage than the smaller model.
Gloog Parys 40NF and 50NF combine floating construction with a pronounced, high-frequency swimming action and versatility across different fishing environments. The smaller 40NF is particularly useful for precisely targeting river features and compact feeding areas, while the heavier 50NF offers improved casting distance and a deeper running range. Developed by the Polish brand Gloog, these crankbait lures are an interesting option for anglers targeting chub, ide, trout and perch in rivers, streams, lakes and ponds.
