DUO Realis Wriggle Curly Soft Lure 3.8" - 9.6 cm

Product Highlights

The DUO Realis Wriggle Curly is a grub soft lure for predators engineered to offer a swimming action that is smooth, natural and irresistible. Made from a high-salt compound, it combines attraction and durability, making it a reference choice for anglers seeking an effective lure in many situations.

Its flat twisted body activates at the slightest stimulus. At the mere touch of current or during a slow retrieve, the lure writhes and generates a movement very close to that of a live prey. The tail, specially mobile, continues to undulate even during pauses, holding fish attention and often triggering strikes during slack phases.

Thanks to its robust design, this soft lure for perch, zander, bass and pike resists repeated attacks better. The plastic formulation optimizes both the flexibility needed for a great swim and tear-resistance, for a longer lifespan compared to many conventional soft lures.

Versatile, the Realis Wriggle Curly adapts to a wide variety of rigs and animations, allowing you to use it in most predator habitats: canals, rivers, lakes, gravel pits or urban waters. Available in several variants, it easily fits into any prospecting strategy, from shore or boat.

Benefits and Strengths

The main asset of the DUO Realis Wriggle Curly lies in its ability to animate with very little movement. Even during an ultra-slow retrieve or a pause on the bottom, the lure's tail keeps working and emits fine vibrations. This action is particularly effective on wary or inactive fish, which are often tempted by a prey that appears vulnerable and easy to catch.

The high-salt compound offers a double benefit. On one hand, it enhances the lure's appeal by encouraging predators to hold it longer in the mouth, which increases hook-up rates. On the other hand, it helps achieve specific density and texture, promoting a natural swim and better stability during animations.

Another strength: its versatility. This grub can be rigged on a light jig head for linear prospecting, on a Texas hook to get through cover, or on a drop shot for a more static presentation. As a trailer on a spinnerbait or chatterbait, it adds an extra vibratory and visual signature that can make the difference on fish already pressured by other lures.

Finally, the sturdy design of the Realis Wriggle Curly allows you to fish longer with the same lure, even with aggressive fish. You change rigs less often, optimize your fishing time and reduce lure consumption — a welcome advantage during intensive sessions.

Usage Tips

To get the most out of the DUO Realis Wriggle Curly soft lure, adapt weight and rig to the current conditions. In shallow areas or when fish are following without striking, favor a light head or lightly weighted setup to benefit from a slow, undulating swim that looks very natural.

During a linear retrieve, vary speeds and make regular pauses: most bites often occur when the lure falls back toward the bottom and the tail keeps quivering. In bouncing or vertical fishing, minimalist animations — simple small rod twitches — are enough to bring the twisted body to life and trigger strikes.

In cluttered or weedy areas, choose a Texas rig to limit snags while keeping excellent tail freedom. As a trailer on spinnerbait or chatterbait, the Realis Wriggle Curly greatly enhances the main lure's attraction by adding a complementary undulating swim.

Don't hesitate to vary available variants to match water clarity, light conditions and fish mood. The key is to keep a smooth animation, letting the lure work by itself without excessive movements.
