The Mikros have proven to be extremely versatile in all fishing situations fresh and saltwater and are available in both sinking and floating configurations.

TECHNIQUE

The Mikros-F and Mikros-S can be fished with similar techniques.  The differences lie in their buoyancy, with the Mikros-F creating a visual and audible disturbance on the surface with its internal rattle chamber and the Mikros-S which sinks for a more subtle but “in your face” presentation.  

Both lures can be walked by twitching the rod tip imparting a side to side zig zag action, keeping the lure in the feeding zone where it is most effective.  The occasional long jerk will make the lure kick wildly, making the lure swim like a fleeing baitfish.

The Mikros lure can be retrieved with various speeds depending on the hook setup.  Lighter hooks allow for a slower retrieve while larger, heavier hooks allow for a more spirited retrieve.  For heavy tackle and big game fishing, an extra large treble or single hook located on the belly is all you need.  This configuration will still allow the lure to swim at its best (note that the Mikros-F will sink slightly due to the heavier belly hook)

For trolling purposes up to 4 knots, use the largest possible hook on the belly with the Mikros-S (sinking)
