Advantages and key features

The main strength of the Super Surger lies in its ability to entice picky fish. Its erratic motion, easy to produce even for less experienced anglers, triggers reflex strikes from tuna feeding aggressively as well as from more lethargic schools.

This saltwater tuna lure also stands out for its versatility. It can be fished in many ways: steady retrieve, sharp pulls, pronounced pauses, fast surface or subsurface animations, depending on fish behaviour and prevailing conditions. This adaptability lets you try several approaches quickly without changing lures.

Its solid construction makes it a durable partner for regular anglers. Choosing the Super Surger means investing in a lure that withstands intensive outings without losing effectiveness, making it a relevant addition to any pelagic prospecting tackle box.

Usage tips

To get the best from the SMITH Super Surger, use a setup suited to tuna fishing in saltwater, with a sufficiently powerful rod and a heavy-duty reel. An abrasion-resistant leader is recommended to cope with rubbing and repeated headshakes.

On the water, start with a steady retrieve to find the speed that provokes the best reactions, then vary the actions: accelerations, short or long pauses, wide pulls or quick twitches. Focus around chases, birds and slicks where tuna actively feed.

The Super Surger also performs well when fished more subtly on educated fish. In those situations, favour finer actions by alternating short pulls and controlled drift phases to let the lure glide naturally in the target water column.
