CID - Iron Candy Couta Casting
The CID Iron Candy Couta Casting series is a high-performance metal spoon designed to dominate the New Zealand saltwater scene, particularly for fast-moving pelagics. Originally developed to target South African 'Couta' (King Mackerel), this lure features a unique aerodynamic profile that delivers extreme casting distances from both the shore and the boat. Its specialized weight distribution allows for a super high-speed retrieve that triggers aggressive reaction strikes from Kingfish, Kahawai, and Tuna.
Built with a robust construction, the Iron Candy Couta Casting lure excels in rough surf conditions and deep-water jigging alike. The rounded edge design causes the spoon to twist immediately upon a bite, positioning the hook optimally for a solid set. Whether you are spinning off the rocks or dropping it down for a vertical jig, this lure is a proven essential for targeting predatory game fish.
