Luhr Jensen Bolo Flex-i-Troll 26-Inch — Brass/Red Center | South Bend Sporting Goods

Overview

The Luhr Jensen Bolo Flex-i-Troll 26-Inch brings together a distinctive four-blade arrangement built around the iconic Bolo blade. This design creates broad, eye-catching flash and subtle vibration that can attract attention even at slower trolling speeds. With a built-in trolling rudder, the lure stays on a steady path, helping you maintain control as you cover water.

Design and action

The Flex-i-Troll adds a modern edge to a classic lure concept. The extra-light blades reduce drag, making it easier to keep a smooth cadence at various speeds while the brass/red center offers a striking focal point beneath the surface. The result is an engaging silhouette and lively movement that can be observed as the lure traces its wide, looping arcs in the water.

• No line-twist action & flexible cable helps maintain line integrity.
• Premium plating and polishing maximize shine and visibility.
• Extra-light blades lower drag for easier trolling at a range of speeds.
• Multiple sizes enable adaptation from small ponds to larger reservoirs.
• Bolo design spins in wide circles for distinct attraction.

Versatility and use cases

With several sizes to choose from, this lure family is designed to span different water bodies. The brass/red center isn’t just a visual feature—it provides a bold focal point that can help the lure stand out under varying light conditions. Paired with a steady trolling rhythm, the Bolo Flex-i-Troll supports a consistent presentation across diverse environments, from calm days on inland spots to open-water sessions on bigger bodies of water.

• Ideal for ponds, lakes, and reservoirs where visibility and action matter.
• Effective at a range of speeds, especially where a bright, steady flash is desirable.
