Lucky John Arrow Jerk 15S is a large sinking lipless jerkbait designed for pike fishing. It measures 15 cm (5.9 in) and weighs 90 g, making it suitable for powerful casting tackle and targeting larger predators in lakes, reservoirs and slower river sections.
Arrow Jerk 15S shows its best action when worked with short, rhythmic jerks of the rod. Each pull makes the lure change direction, while the length of the pauses helps control the pace of the presentation and the depth at which it remains for longer.
Its sinking design allows different layers of the water column to be covered. After the cast, the lure can be allowed to sink for several seconds before the retrieve begins. According to the series specifications, it can be worked down to approximately 4 m (13 ft), depending on retrieve speed, pause length and the tackle used.
The leader can noticeably affect the behaviour of the lure. A heavier leader may increase the sink rate and produce a more controlled action, while a lighter setup allows freer changes of direction. It is worth testing the jerkbait in shallow, clear water to match the strength of the jerks and the length of the pauses to the desired action.
The body is made from durable plastic and protected by a hard-wearing finish designed to withstand contact with pike teeth. Its large profile and pronounced changes of direction make Arrow Jerk 15S particularly suitable for actively searching for larger fish.
Lucky John Arrow Jerk 15S is available in several colour patterns, allowing the lure to be matched to water clarity, weather conditions and the natural prey found in the venue.
Lucky John is best known for its wide range of spinning lures designed for perch, zander, pike, trout and other predatory fish. The range includes soft lures, wobblers, inline spinners and spoons that can be matched to different venues, fishing depths and retrieval styles.
Soft lures make up the largest part of the Lucky John range. It includes classic paddle-tail lures, slim profiles for jigging, curly-tail grubs, fork-tail lures, worms and imitations of creatures living close to the bottom. Series such as Tioga, Joco Shaker, S-Shad Tail, Makora, Kubira and Hogy Hog allow anglers to select the right action and size for rivers, lakes and reservoirs.
Lucky John wobblers include small models for trout, chub and perch, as well as larger lures designed for pike and zander. Depending on their construction, they can be retrieved steadily, worked with sharp twitches or used to explore deeper parts of the water column.
The range is complemented by inline spinners and spoons suitable for fishing in current, still waters and trout fisheries. Different sizes and profiles make it possible to choose a lure for slow presentations as well as faster searching retrieves.
Lucky John also offers a limited selection of spinning rods, which form a small addition to the brand’s extensive lure range.
The Lucky John range includes lures for light perch and trout fishing, classic jigging for zander and more powerful spinning for pike. When choosing a lure, it is worth considering the fishing depth, retrieval speed, size of the natural prey and current activity of the fish.
