Lucky John Hama Stick – Passive Soft Lures for Zander and Perch
Price from £ 5.35 View productsSlim Soft Lures for Drop Shot Rigs and Snaggy Areas
Lucky John Hama Stick is a slim passive soft lure designed primarily for targeting zander and perch. Its elongated body has no paddle tail or other element that produces a strong action by itself. The lure’s movement is controlled by the angler, allowing it to be presented slowly and precisely.
The soft and flexible material responds to short rod-tip movements, line vibrations and subtle changes in the position of the rig. Hama Stick is particularly useful when predators ignore strongly vibrating shads and respond better to a restrained presentation. The material is scented, adding an extra olfactory element to the lure.
Passive action controlled by the angler
Lucky John Hama Stick can be worked with short pulls, gentle rod-tip shakes and extended pauses. When the rig is stopped, the soft body retains a natural freedom of movement and does not require a fast retrieve. This presentation suits cautious zander and perch holding close to the bottom, vegetation or submerged cover.
The lure can also be moved in small hops above the bottom or slowly dragged through a selected area. Adju...

Soft Baits Hama Stick
Lucky John Hama Stick is a slim passive soft lure designed primarily for targeting zander and perch. Its elongated body has no paddle tail or other element that produces a strong action by itself. The lure’s movement is controlled by the angler, allowing it to be presented slowly and precisely.
The soft and flexible material responds to short rod-tip movements, line vibrations and subtle changes in the position of the rig.

Passive action controlled by the angler
Lucky John Hama Stick can be worked with short pulls, gentle rod-tip shakes and extended pauses. When the rig is stopped, the soft body retains a natural freedom of movement and does not require a fast retrieve. This presentation suits cautious zander and perch holding close to the bottom, vegetation or submerged cover.
The lure can also be moved in small hops above the bottom or slowly dragged through a selected area. Adjusting the frequency of the movements and the length of the pauses makes it possible to match the presentation to the current activity of the fish.
For drop shot and offset hook rigs
One of the main uses of Hama Stick is on a drop shot rig. Separating the lure from the weight makes it possible to hold it at a chosen depth and present it for longer without moving the entire rig far from the target area. This approach works well along drop-offs, beside submerged structures and when accurately fishing individual holding spots.
The body includes moulded hook channels that make it easier to conceal the point of an offset hook. This creates a more weedless presentation for fishing near vegetation, branches and other underwater obstacles. Hama Stick can also be rigged on a light jig head or a free-moving weight, depending on the depth and bottom structure.
Size for zander, perch and pike
Lucky John Hama Stick measures 3.5 inches / 8.9 cm and is supplied in packs of 9 lures. This size suits medium zander rigs, while lighter rigging makes it suitable for larger perch. Pike may also take the lure when it is presented around weed beds and other cover.
The slim profile produces limited resistance and helps the lure cast accurately. Natural colours are suitable for clear water, while contrasting patterns can be used in lower visibility, greater depth or overcast conditions.
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.
