I tempi delle esche "cheap" in schiuma con la vernice che saltava a guardarla sono lontani e, avendo avuto il piacere di fare un po' di shopping compulsivo ne ho potute provare diverse in pesca.
Once upon a time there were the old fashionable wooden lures.... and they still are there :D But in recet times are appearing more and more mass producted plastic lures thinked for heavy fishing.
They might not have the appeal of custom ones but their quality has improved until the production of very nice objects with great effectiveness.
Shimano, IMA, Duo, Tackle House, tra quelle che mi piacciono ma non solo loro, presentano in catalogo dei lures decisamente efficaci e che danno la possibilità di dedicarsi alle pesche pesanti senza svenarsi... al prezzo di un GT gamma possiamo prendere 4 Orca 220 ad esempio, e se proprio il mostro pinnuto ci strapperà la lenza non piangeremo così a lungo ma potremo montare a cuor leggero il prossimo artificiale...
Shimano, IMA, Duo, Tackle House all offer lures that I like a lot, but they're not the only ones. Price is often the good new, we could buy 4 orcas 220 for example at the price of a single Gt gamma, and if the line ever break we'll not cry that badly but proceed to tie next lure on the end of the line...
Shimano Head Dip, 17.5 cm per 97 grammi
IMA Banett 19 e 16 cm per 65 e 43 grammi
Tackle House Shibuki V187DP, quasi 19 cm per 76 grammi
Shimano Orca Floating, 190 e 220 mm
Ma non solo loro, tutte esche molto robuste con armatura passante che resistono ad un buon numero di attacchi se..... non incontrano un grosso barracuda o una cubera....
Il problema sono solo i buchi, una volta aperti si riempiono d'acqua e non lavorano più, contrariamente al legno che, se trattato a dovere in fase di costruzione, continua a galleggiare e lavorare..
All the above lures are very though compared to old plastic generation, with through wire, and they withstand a good number of attacks... at least if we don'ìt encounter a big barracuda or a mean cubera snapper. Problem is just about theet holes, once pounched the lure fills with water and doesn't work anymore; the opposite of wood that continues to float and work if treated as should during the construction.

Aspettiamoci per il futuro un aumento di questo tipo di artificiali, perfetti per l'esordio tropicale ma anche validi strumenti nelle mani di chiunque, "esperti" compresi... anche se il fascino di un oggetto "custom" in legno come questo Shell Shaping Lure è comunque difficile da imitare :D
We must espect more models to fill the market in next future, the trend is plastic; they're perfect for the tropical beginner but also good weapons in experienced hands.... even if the charm of a custom wood like the Shell Shaping below will be hard to reach....
