10″ Hiro Trout
Length: 10″
Weight: 6oz
Sink Rate: Slow Rise Floater / Slow Sink
Design & Function
Designed to naturally simulate cruising trout that swim just below the surface, the Slow Rise Floater is ideal for shallow submerged areas such as weeds and wood. The slow sink rate allows for long pauses, which can trigger bites from cautious fish. It also serves well as a deadstick lure in open water where fish suspend.
Custom tuned and weighted with three #1 Decoy hooks, this lure maximizes hook-up potential for non-committal fish.
Movement & Casting
Engineered to require less line pickup, the bait stays naturally on the end of the cast, allowing it to present effectively in areas where trophy fish are often found.

FAQ
What makes the sink rate of this lure effective?
The slow rise and slow sink pattern mimics natural trout movement just below the surface, allowing for long pauses that trigger bites in shallow, vegetated areas or open water where fish suspend.
How does the hook configuration improve performance?
The three #1 Decoy hooks are custom tuned and weighted to increase hook-up ratio, especially with non-committal or cautious fish that don’t immediately take the bait.
Is this lure suitable for use in open water?
Yes, it works well as a deadstick lure in open water where fish suspend, thanks to its slow sink rate and natural movement profile.

This lure performs well in shallow weed beds. The slow sink rate lets it stay in place long enough to attract fish that are hesitant to bite. The three hooks help with hook-ups even when fish don’t strike immediately.
Gavin Lewis –
I used it in a clear creek with submerged logs. It stayed on the end of the cast and didn’t get pulled under quickly. Fish took it after a few minutes of stillness. Good for slow presentations.
Dominic Tucker –
The design feels natural and realistic. It stays in place without much line pickup, which is perfect for targeting fish near the surface. Hook-up rate is higher than expected for a slow sink lure.
