Collection: Tasmanian Devil Lures 26gr

The 26g Tasmanian Devil (commonly called the "Big Devil" or "Big Tassie Devil") is the largest and heaviest model in Wigston's iconic Tasmanian Devil lure series from Tasmania, Australia. Weighing 26 grams (approximately 1 oz or 0.92 oz), it's about 75–78mm (around 3 inches) in length—significantly bigger and more substantial than the 20g variant.

Its design follows the series' revolutionary winged concept: a hollow, weighted torpedo-shaped lead core encased in tough plastic with curved "diamond" wings that deliver the trademark erratic, side-to-side darting, rocking, diving, and pulsating action—perfectly imitating a wounded or panicked baitfish. This produces a clear "nodding" or pulsing at the rod tip to confirm ideal retrieve/troll speed, with zero line twist. The line-through rigging lets the body slide up the line on hookup, slashing leverage and helping secure fish that might otherwise throw the hook.

Tailored for bigger game and deeper presentations, it's ideal for trolling (recommended 5–5.5 km/h or 3–3.5 mph), downrigging, jigging, or casting in windy/heavier conditions—often with downriggers, lead core line, or planer boards to reach greater depths. It shines in freshwater and light saltwater for larger predatory species like big brown trout, rainbow trout, salmon, steelhead, pike, walleye, bass, and similar hard-fighting fish, especially when targeting deeper-holding or aggressive feeders.

Constructed durably with premium hooks (typically larger VMC trebles or singles, around size 4), it's offered in a wide array of vibrant, proven colors/patterns (e.g., Rainbow Trout, Fire Tiger, Clown, UV options, bleeding finishes). Anglers regard it as the go-to powerhouse in the lineup—reliable, versatile for tough conditions, and highly effective at drawing strikes from trophy-sized fish worldwide.
