The Sorcerer 125 is widely recognised as Australia’s best Barramundi lure, this amazing lure has incredible versatility. The four depths range from less than a metre to over 8 metres. The tight trademark Scorpion shimmy action is the ideal strike trigger and the butterknife tail give exceptional hook exposure and the flat reflective surface which creates a huge flash on the chrome finishes. Trolling speeds ranging from 1 knot to 5 knots are ideal and twitching of the rod at low trolling speeds will achieve greater action with a more erratic movement.

These Scorpions are bib towed. Halco designed the special towing links that insert into the bib they are now industry standard. Are the bibs strong? yes very strong! The bib has been tested by Australian Monofil Company (the makers of the Australian made Platypus Fishing lines) They actually pull out at 145 pounds. These are Bullet proof bibs, designed by Halco and utilise a key and keyway to align the bib perfectly and hold it in tight. Remember, let the unique design do the holding do not use any glue, it will weaken the plastic. We leave gluing to our competitors.

The Sorcerer 150, although mainly trolled, is a great casting lure for big salt and fresh water species. The “butterknife” tail aid in easy casting and the lure quickly descends to the depth engraved on the lure bib. When trolling areas of structure, the buoyancy of the lure and the “butterknife” tail allow the lure to back off any snags after the line has been allowed to slacken off. It may not work every time but is essential when trolling down close to structure that may snag your lure.

To achieve an even faster trolling speed, remove the centre hook. If you wish to use heavier hooks, then use Mustad 2/0’s on the front and rear hook hanger. Do not put one on the centre hook hanger. It will upset the balance of the lure as well as causing hook meshing.
