Description
The Cardiff Folletta is a very versatile slow lure that can be used in many ways and is particularly effective for trout in rivers and still waters. When shaken, it produces a nervous wide fluttering action, but when constantly retrieved, it moves with a tight swimming action.
The Cardiff Folletta is an indispensable lure for trout anglers who like to fish in rivers. Slow-sinking buoyancy ensures the lure stays below the surface and directly in the trout's line of sight, even when paused. Give it a series of short, strong jerks and you'll see the Folletta adopt a "nervous" swimming action with a final roll similar to that of a small prey. The use of a gentle, constant retrieve, particularly in fast water, produces a tight swimming action with plenty of stability.
