Inzendingen Illex voor Beste Nieuwe Producten EFTTEX 2017

 
Een van de hoogtepunten van de EFTTEX (European Fishing Tackle Trade Exhibition), die vandaag, donderdag 29 juni 2017, begint in Boedapest, vormt steevast de Best New Product Competition, waarvan de uitslag tijdens het galadiner op de vrijdagavond bekend gemaakt wordt.
 
Hieronder vind je de inzendingen van Illex voor deze competitie:
 
DERABALL: 
The DeraBall is a hybrid sot bait crossed between a crank and a shad that is best described as a swimbait. Designed to imitate a range of prey, this small compact ball casts brilliantly and is designed for skipping round obstacles. When worked back on straight retrieves the seductive swimming action is sure to stimulate interest from any predators holed up in weed beds, lily pads, bankside snags or sunken trees. Originally designed for shallow water fishing there is nothing to stop you adding a tungsten ball to get it down deeper. The “Line True” attachment system runs your hooklength through a plastic tube so the lure is free to slide up the line when a fish is on. The DeraBall features an ingenious rigging system. It is supplied with a top quality treble hook with two prongs whipped onto the shank for attaching the hook to the lure and a rolling swivel so the hook can turn a full 360° eliminating the chance of hook pulls when a fish is on.
 
Size: 82 mm
Weight: 26 gram
Swimming depth: 0,05 until 0,30 meter
Retail Recommended Price: € 14,90
Six colors: Blue Ayu, Chartreuse Strike Gill, Frog Tiger, HM Chartreuse Boa, Perch, Tonosoma Frog.
 
ADVANTAGES:
Easy to cast: due to its density and its ball shape, you can cast or skip it very well.
Swimming action: its compact body moves a lot of water, even in slow retrieve or during stops where it is sinking slowly. And in addition you have the small vibrations of the tail that increase in fast retrieve.
Hooking: the treble hook allows to secure your catches but its position prevents any tangle during casting as to hook obstacles even in the shallows.
360° Rotation of the treble hook due to its rolling swivel.
Line True System: allows the lure to slide up during fight and so protects it and avoids any unhooking.
Adjustable swimming depth with adding a sliding tungsten ball on the line in front of the lure.
A killer for pike and black bass.
 
 
JOHN WEIGHT: 
 
The John weight is a handy accessory that lets you quickly change the swimming depth of a lure. The exploding grenade shape and the grid square shell helps hold the steel stem in place so you don’t lose the weight either casting, working the lure or when playing a fish. Simply attach the John weight as close to the centre of gravity of the lure as you can and you can instantly fish deeper. Top tip- the John weight also makes a great lead for drop shot fishing.

PEPPER S 210 L FINESSE PUPPETEER

The ultra-light blank is responsive and fast actioned, ideal for fishing small plugs like Water Monitor, SK Pop, Squad minnow 65 SP, squirrel 61 SP, Tricoroll or Chubby. The rod is also great for most finesse styles of soft bait fishing for perch or zander (Wacky rig, light dropshot, Neko rig…) An incredibly responsive blank sure to prove a big hit with light lure anglers that are after pike, perch, zander or bass. Built on a new X5 ultra high quality carbon blank featuring a special pre-preg carbon where the fibres are oriented along three different angles. The result is an increase in power and resonance and a reduction in weight! Finished with ultra-light Fuji Torzite Titanium “K” rings that eliminate the risk of tangles whilst maximising casting distances. Supplied in a signature rod bag and a protective Cordura tube.
