Alternative Brands NZ
Spinner lures are a proven choice for targeting trout in New Zealand rivers and lakes. However, selecting the right colour and hook type is essential for both success and compliance. Here's what to consider when choosing spinner lures from our range.
In many New Zealand regions—especially designated fly fishing waters or catch-and-release zones—using treble hooks is restricted or discouraged. Single hooks are not only more compliant with local regulations, but they also reduce injury to the fish and make releasing trout easier and safer.
We recommend using barbless single hooks when targeting trout in NZ. They hook effectively and are easier to remove. Always check the fishing regulations for the specific waterway you’re fishing before using a treble hook.
Single-hook spinner lures are the best choice for most trout waters in New Zealand. Choose brighter colours for sunny days and darker ones for low visibility. All spinners in our NZ spinner lure range are designed to meet local conditions and angler expectations.
