RADIANT'S TIGER PRAWN HOOTCHY

Perhaps one of the hottest lures out on the market locally for salmon fishing this year is Radiant's New Tiger Prawn Hootchy. The new lure was designed by Fred Packford and Jack James, long-time local manufacturers of effective fishing lures and founders of Radiant Lures. Meant to be trolled for salmon behind a flasher, this new lure has proven itself as a great producer of chinook salmon in the coastal waters off Vancouver Island, British Columbia.


n theory, this new lure was designed to be fished in deep water (where the lunkers hang-out) to imitate shrimp or krill--hence the color configuration and the name Tiger Prawn. According to numerous reports from local anglers, the theory seems to work, as it has accounted for several salmon being caught over 40 pounds.

This lure can be purchased at most major tackle stores throughout the province.
