Price from £ 8.81 View productsFloating lure for trout, chub, perch and asp in shallow water
Lucky John Haira Tiny Shallow Pilot is a compact floating crankbait designed to run just below the surface. Its short, rounded body measures 3.3 cm, while the 4 g weight makes the lure practical to cast with light spinning tackle when targeting trout, chub, perch and asp.
Haira Tiny Shallow Pilot 33F reaches a maximum running depth of approximately 20 cm. It is well suited to shallow river sections, rocky runs, marginal shelves, calm bays and areas covered with submerged vegetation.
The compact body and small diving lip create a pronounced, high-frequency action. The lure produces noticeable vibration during the retrieve and leaves a visible disturbance behind it, remaining easy to control even when worked slowly.
A steady retrieve is the simplest way to fish the Haira Tiny Shallow Pilot. The speed can be adjusted to the current and the activity of the fish. Slow winding keeps the lure in the strike zone for longer, while a faster retrieve allows more water to be searched efficiently.
When the retrieve is paused, the floating crankbait quickly rises towards the surface. This help...

Hard Lures Haira Tiny Shallow Pilot
Lucky John Haira Tiny Shallow Pilot is a compact floating crankbait designed to run just below the surface. Its short, rounded body measures 3.3 cm, while the 4 g weight makes the lure practical to cast with light spinning tackle when targeting trout, chub, perch and asp.
Haira Tiny Shallow Pilot 33F reaches a maximum running depth of approximately 20 cm. It is well suited to shallow river sections, rocky runs, marginal shelves, calm bays and areas covered with submerged vegetation.
The compact body and small diving lip create a pronounced, high-frequency action. The lure produces noticeable vibration during the retrieve and leaves a visible disturbance behind it, remaining easy to control even when worked slowly.
A steady retrieve is the simplest way to fish the Haira Tiny Shallow Pilot. The speed can be adjusted to the current and the activity of the fish. Slow winding keeps the lure in the strike zone for longer, while a faster retrieve allows more water to be searched efficiently.
When the retrieve is paused, the floating crankbait quickly rises towards the surface. This helps it pass above weed, rocks and other shallow obstacles, while also making the lure suitable for a stop-and-go presentation.
Short sections of steady winding can be alternated with pauses during which the lure changes direction and begins to rise. This variation often helps trigger fish that follow the crankbait without reacting to a continuous retrieve.
The model uses the OSS – Outside Stabilizer System, which supports the lure’s vibration during the retrieve and improves the casting performance of its compact body. This is useful when accurate casts are required towards the opposite bank, overhanging branches, current seams and other defined holding areas.
In rivers, the lure can be worked across the current, upstream or allowed to swing naturally towards the fish. It performs well around rocky banks, shallow runs, current breaks and calmer water behind obstacles. In lakes and reservoirs, it can be retrieved above vegetation and through areas where small baitfish remain close to the surface.
Lucky John Haira Tiny Shallow Pilot 33F measures 3.3 cm (1.3 in), weighs 4 g, is floating and runs to approximately 20 cm. It is a shallow-running crankbait for light spinning aimed at trout, chub, perch and asp.
Lucky John
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.
