Pilkers are an integral part of sea fishing and it doesn't matter if you fish with them in Norway, Oman or Alaska. The principle is the same. You need a sufficiently heavy and versatile bait that you can use to catch the entire water column. However, most fish caught on pilkers will be hooked on the bottom. For this reason, it is important to choose the appropriate weight. We generally recommend 400g pilkers up to a depth of 100 meters. The mentioned rule is of course indicative and depends on other factors − drift strength, braided line diameter, reel type (smack / multiplier) and others.

Recommendation of pilkers for individual fish species: the Savage Gear 3D Slim Jig 100g series for catching keler in Norway is a clear choice, pilkers can be cast on a stronger rod. You can thus use both horizontal and vertical bait guidance combined with excellent action of the bait. The surface treatment of SG pilkers is irresistible for capital kellers!
