About this lure

The Halco – Laser Pro 45 is a compact, slow-sinking hard body lure designed to give anglers maximum control and time in the strike zone. Rear-weighted for improved casting despite its small size, it excels when worked with a stop–start retrieve, making it deadly on cautious and pressured fish.

  • Slow-sinking design – Keeps the lure in the strike zone longer
  • Rear-weighted body – Improves casting distance and control for a small lure
  • Stop–start effectiveness – Pauses trigger reaction strikes from wary fish
  • Versatile retrieve styles – Effective slow-rolled or twitched back
  • Ultra-light 6g weight – Ideal for finesse spinning and light tackle
  • Fresh and saltwater capable – Perfect for bream, flathead, bass, and trout

Big Kev's Tips

How to work it

The Laser Pro 45 is a compact slow-sinking lure that shines on the stop-start retrieve.

Cast and pause, allowing it to sink gently into the strike zone, then twitch or roll it back with short pauses between movements. This cadence triggers reaction strikes from cautious, pressured fish. Its rear-weighted design aids casting distance despite the small 6g body, making it ideal for finesse spinning and light-tackle work.

Work it shallow over structure or in open water; the slow sink rate keeps it in the zone longer than faster-dropping alternatives.
