Herakles HDD 55
Herakles HDD 55 is a freshwater crankbait in the HDD-55 series, designed for deep crank fishing. It belongs to the Herakles hard bait range and was developed to work in depth with a floating action and a profile engineered for casting.
What it is for
This type of lure is used when the fish holds below the range of classic shallow crankbaits and you need to reach the deep zone with a regular action. HDD 55 works down to 5.5 meters and is used in freshwater fishing, especially when it is necessary to probe holes, drop-offs and slope edges. The snagless lip limits snags on submerged obstacles and makes it easier to keep working areas with cover or other structure. The tungsten ball helps casting distance, which is useful when you need to cover distance and reach the right spot accurately.
Features
- Deep crank for freshwater, designed to work between 5 and 6 meters deep.
- Floating action suitable for retrieves over deep bottom.
- Ball in a special tungsten compound to improve casting distance.
- Snagless lip to reduce the risk of snagging on submerged obstacles.
- Series available in multiple colors, useful for adapting the lure to the fishing situation.
- Pack of 5 pieces.
At Pescaloccasione, the Herakles HDD 55 series is offered in the color variants available in the catalog. The choice of model depends mainly on the preferred pattern and the fishing context, while the structure and use remain those of the same deep crank family.
