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 Sorcerer 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 Sorcerer’s 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.
For the last 10 years, I have been using the Halco sorcerer for trolling and have caught a variety of fishing including GTs and a 32-pound barramundi on it. Grouper love this lure and are usually the first to hook up. The swimming action is great when trolled slowly from a boat and it swims deep - so be careful of bottom rocks. I found the hooks rather weak and I have changed them to stronger ones. It is very effective in estuaries and river mouths. The silver colour works best for me. A timeless lure that I always carry when out trolling!
