The unique and seductive Belly Dancer is a charming new addition. While we were fine-tuning its swimming action, the movement of its wide, swaying section left no doubt as to the lure’s name! The Belly Dancer catches the eye like a captivating oriental belly dance and entices the fish to strike.
The Belly Dancer is, of course, a handmade lure manufactured in Finland and is ideal for perch, rainbow trout, and pike fishing in the south. In the north, the Belly Dancer’s long casting distance makes it an angler’s dream for trout and char.
The lure’s swimming action is at its best when you combine pausing the reel with a slow retrieve; the lure then remains almost motionless, creating a tantalizing swimming motion. With a fast retrieve, the Belly Dancer swings its body vigorously, enticing the fish to strike. Vary these retrieval techniques, and the Belly Dancer won’t let you down.
It’s not just a lure—it’s an invitation to adventure, and as the song goes: “Don’t be shy, girl, go bananza. Shake ya body like a belly dancer.”
