Pike SP - Pike streamer
Pike SP is a classic springtime color, easily associated with a small pike – a natural snack for larger predators. A great choice for clear water and those moments when the fish get picky.
The fly is available in two size variants: 13 cm and 18 cm – so you can match the size to conditions and fish activity.

This streamer casts light and true – no problem even with a #8 rod, but it performs best with a #9.
During casting, it sheds water quickly and folds into a streamlined missile.
In the water, it swells and pulses, delivering a strong yet natural signal.
Visually, it appears large, but remains light and easy to control.
You don’t need to animate it – but if you add action, it can surprise with unpredictable movement.
Also works great with a spinning rod. Just add a cheburashka and retrieve however you like – from the drop, like a jerkbait, or in your own style.
A baitfish imitation that gets to work right away – no fuss needed.
