2. What is the purpose of the curly swim tail on the SpoolTek Fat Curly lure?
The curly swim tail on the SpoolTek Fat Curly lure is designed to emulate the natural undulating movement of a baitfish's tail when swimming. This tail action:
- Adds irresistible movement underwater

The tail ensures the lure has an alluring action even at a slower retrieve, making it easier to catch the attention of predatory fish.
3. How does the internal spool with stainless steel leader work?
The internal spool equipped with a stainless steel leader is a standout feature of the SpoolTek Fat Curly lure. This innovative mechanism:
- Releases additional leader line upon a fish bite
- Allows anglers to use a finer main leader for a more natural presentation
- Reduces the likelihood of a fish noticing and getting spooked by a heavier terminal tackle
- Improves the lure action due to less drag and interference from heavy equipment
This mechanism notably enhances the chance of successfully hooking and landing a fish by mitigating the risks associated with line breakage during a struggle.
4. How does the SpoolTek Fat Curly lure prevent fish from shaking off the hook?
The SpoolTek Fat Curly lure prevents fish from shaking off the hook by:
- Separating the weighted lure body from the hook using the internal spool system
- Allowing for more give and reducing leverage that the fish could use against the hook
- Increasing angler hook-up rates and decreasing the fish's ability to dislodge the hook via thrashing
In essence, the lure's design minimizes the chance for an escape, resulting in more successful catches.
The SpoolTek Fat Curly is engineered for both the seasoned and novice angler, combining durability with advanced technological design to improve the overall fishing experience. Whether you're casting for inshore species or venturing offshore, this lure has the qualities needed to entice bites and withstand the tough battles that come with big fish angling.
