Why Lakeflare Works
Designed for Light Reflection & Attraction
The bright gradient colour pattern mimics a small distressed baitfish, while the embedded silver glitter scatters light with every movement. This spoon works well in bright daylight, drawing attention from trout and perch that hunt using sight.
Best Use Cases:
- Sunny or clear days
- Lake or canal fishing with good visibility
- When trout are feeding near the surface
Why It Works:
- Bright colour fade triggers predatory instincts.
- Glitter adds lifelike flash that stands out in the water column.
