Retaining all of the proven attributes of the original Marc Cowling ‘Signature’ Needlefish (size, shape, weight, level sinking capability for maximum control and attractiveness, robustness, subtleness and excellent underwater manoeuvrability) this is the next generation Magnetic Weight Shifting (MWS) or ‘Surf’ version.

The ‘custom designed’ MWS system has been specifically developed for this lure by Tom Cooper of TC Lures in order to increase stability ‘in flight’ and enable distances of over 65m+ to be achieved. This is an impressive 20-25% increase on the original, by virtue of the equivalent of an additional 4g of weight moving by 70mm from the tail section, back towards the nose of the lure during the momentum of the cast.

Yet while the casting prowess has been significantly enhanced, crucially, none of principal qualities such as its overall appearance and high levels of sensitivity on the retrieve have been lost - the understated yet deadly, ghostly, lingering and almost levitating ‘highly natural’ movement, fundamental to hoodwinking a wily bass are all preserved.

While the original was best suited to delicately working it in just inches of water over a rugged reef or within the confines of a serene, estuarine environment, this improved, unique-looking needlefish, designed to mimic squid, cuttlefish and small prey fish, has evolved into a lure that can still be effectively utilised in the above conditions, but now also when the wind is howling and the surf is up - day or night!
