Tailspinners

Tailspinners rank among the most versatile metal lures for actively searching predators throughout the entire water column. They combine a compact, heavy body with a rear-mounted rotating blade, delivering extreme casting distance, instant start-up action, and a very readable movement. They are ideal for targeting perch, zander, pike, and asp, both on still waters and rivers.

The main advantage of tailspinners is their versatility and ease of use. They work perfectly with steady retrieves, lift & fall presentations, and even bottom hopping similar to jig fishing. The rotating blade remains active even at very slow speeds and often spins during the fall, triggering strikes when fish ignore traditional hard baits or soft plastics. Thanks to their small profile and high weight, tailspinners are extremely effective in wind, current, and heavily pressured waters.

Recommended tailspinners

• Jackall Deracoup – a legendary tailspinner with exceptional casting distance and strong vibration; a truly universal lure for perch, zander, pike, and asp when retrieved steadily, jigged, or burned just below the surface.
• Jackall Deracoup Fine – a subtler, quieter version with a resin body; ideal for clear water, cautious fish, and heavily pressured fisheries where a discreet yet technically precise presentation is key.
