Small Acme K.O. Wobbler: Secret Weapon on Ice?

PROVIDENCE, RI – Acme’s K.O. Wobbler spoon is known by freshwater anglers everywhere for its unique ability to attract fish with a combination of side-to-side action, flash and sound.  It just so happens that this same deadly combination is very effective when tempting wintertime gamefish through the ice. The K.O. Wobbler’s design —wide at the base and tapered sharply at the front —gives this spoon the short, wide profile of a fat baitfish.  It also gives the K.O. Wobbler an enticing, side-to-side wobble as the lure is jigged vertically over the bottom or structure.  It takes very little rod tip motion to create this action on the rise or drop, providing the ideal combination for getting cold-water predators to strike — a satisfying meal they won’t have to work too hard to catch.

Another key feature of the K.O. Wobbler that makes it great through the ice is the spoon’s unique Sonic Flipper Tail.  As the lure is jigged, this tail provides added flash and real-life action.  Even the gentlest jigging motion also causes the tail to alternately strike the spoon body and hook shank, creating “clicking” noise that helps draw the curiosity of nearby predators.  This combination of sight and sound often makes the difference in drawing savage strikes once cold-water predators come in to investigate.

The wide body shape and compact size of the 1/8-oz. K.O. Wobbler are ideal for imitating a wide range of naturally occurring forage.  A variety of available finishes combining jewel-quality plating and color accents help anglers “match the hatch” while providing the flash and contrast to attract fish in the darkened waters below the ice. These fish-fooling combinations include Gold/Florescent Red, Nickel/Chartreuse, Nickel/Florescent Red, Nickel/Neon Blue, Nickel/Neon Green, and Red/White with Nickel back.

Because strikes under the ice come at a premium, the 1/8-oz. K.O. Wobbler is made with needle sharp hooks that penetrate fast — even on light line —and hold all the way to the surface.  In addition, stainless steel split rings and Acme’s traditional attention to detail ensure that the K.O. Wobbler can stand up to tough gamefish and the hard life of fishing through the ice.
