Sinking Lure DUO Realis Apex Vibe F 85 - 8.5 cm

Product highlights

The DUO APEX VIBE REALIS is a vibration lure designed for predator anglers seeking a fast and efficient prospecting tool. Descended from a model already highly regarded by pike specialists, it has been adapted into a more compact version to meet the expectations of perch and bass anglers looking for a more versatile lure that is easy to use in a variety of situations.

This powerfishing lure stands out for its ability to quickly cover large areas of water while maintaining excellent feedback through the rod. Its swimming action produces intense, consistent vibrations that are immediately felt, allowing the angler to keep constant contact with the lure and detect even the subtlest strikes.

Thanks to its compact profile and calculated density, the APEX VIBE REALIS easily reaches predator holding zones, whether along edges, ledges, drop-offs or submerged structure. Its specific shape ensures excellent stability at different retrieval speeds, making it a top choice for both fast fishing and slower animations close to the bottom.

Advantages and key strengths

One of the main strengths of the DUO APEX VIBE REALIS lies in its versatility. It can be used for sustained cast-and-retrieve to provoke reflex strikes as well as for stepped, near-bottom animations to entice more cautious fish. This adaptability makes it an essential lure for predator fishing throughout the season.

Another advantage is its ability to interest fish of varied sizes. Initially praised for pike fishing in its larger version, this more compact model opens new possibilities for perch and bass fishing while remaining selective enough for quality specimens. It becomes a real "all-rounder" for the angler who wants to travel light without sacrificing effectiveness.

Usage tips

The vibration lure APEX VIBE REALIS performs best in powerfishing approaches, where the goal is to cover as much ground as possible to locate active fish. A steady retrieve at moderate to high speed makes the most of its tight, regular vibrations. Don’t hesitate to vary the pace, add short pauses or accelerate suddenly to trigger reflex attacks.

When fish are less active, it can be worked near the bottom with pulls or a "yo-yo" style. Let it fall, then retrieve with short or long jerks before letting it fall again freely. This alternation of vibrating swim phases and drops perfectly imitates an injured baitfish, which provokes predators holding on ledges or around structure.

This lure is suited to many environments: lakes, reservoirs, slow rivers or canals. It is particularly effective for sweeping classic predator holding areas: sparse weedbeds, shorelines, heads of holes, moderate current zones or posts marked by obstacles. Simply adapt retrieval speed and target depth according to the spot configuration.
