THE Atomic Metalz were launched many years ago initially in a 35 and 40 mm size. They became a hit with bream and bass anglers and were used effectively by anglers when the fish were holding deep.
The effectiveness of the lure comes down to the careful design and the speed at which the blade works, sending out a vibration that attracts nearby fish. The manufacturers say they have also worked hard to ensure action at slow speeds. Weight distribution has been key to this and, across the entire range, all sizes swim stably and perform with that fish attracting vibration.
After feedback from anglers, new larger sizes have been added to cover the full breadth of inshore and offshore fishing as well as impoundments. In all there are now five sizes in the range.
Already available in a slew of natural and striking colours, the new sizes cover 55 mm up to 110 mm.
During testing bass, bream and threadfin salmon have already been caught on the 55 mm versions, while offshore species such as coral trout and sweetlip have been caught while being fished deep off the reefs.
The weights are as follows
- 35 mm – 1/8 oz
- 40 mm – 1/4 oz
- 55 mm – 1/2 oz
- 80 mm – 1 oz
- 110 mm – 1 ½ oz
