The Robotic Swimming Lure is a powerful tool; when used correctly, it will catch fish, and catch plenty of them. However, when misused, just as using a heavy screwdriver doing a hammer’s job, it may work “OK,” but never at the level it’s intended. So here are some pro tips.
First, try to identify the best area to cast your robotic lure. As we have suggested before, use a swimming lure to draw game fish out first, then cast your robotic lure for easy hookups.
Second, choose an appropriate length for your leader line. We recommend a depth up to 30 feet, so do not let your lure to go beyond that. The Robotic lure is best when suspended in mid-water (3~5 feet from the bottom), so your prey could ambush from bottom-up or behind. You can easily measure the depth using a bobber and a heavy sinker. Adjust the distance between sinker and bobber with every cast, starting relatively short and gradually move up. Cast it to the target area a few times until you see the bobber floating, that’s your depth.
Lastly, fully charge up your Robotic Swimming lure before use. Leave it on overnight or at least a couple of hours, and always have a spare one available. The Robotic Swimming lure is also a swimming lure, even without a working propeller. You can still fish with it as a regular Swimming Lure, just cast, wait a few seconds, reel fast, slow, then pause; rinse and repeat, you’ll be surprised at how effective it performs even without the use of its propeller.
