Luhr Jensen Kwikfish X-Treme K11X Fluorescent Red Fire – Deep-Diving Lure

Overview

Meet the Kwikfish Xtreme from Luhr Jensen, a deep-diving lure crafted for anglers fishing deep water or fast currents. With fixed eyelets, no tuning required, and a distinctive side-to-side body action, it maintains an inviting profile across a wide range of speeds.

Key benefits

• Deeper dive without added weights: designed to reach lower depths with a balanced pull and steady pressure.
• Easy setup: fixed eyelets reduce fiddling, enabling quicker preparation on crowded boats.
• Stable tracking: side-to-side body construction helps the lure stay true as line slack changes.
• Versatile trolling: wide, slow trolling action creates natural, appealing glides through the water.
• Reliable hardware: round-bend treble hooks support confident strikes and efficient hook-ups.

How to use

For best results, pinch the eye on the face of the plug to achieve even side-to-side action. If the lure leans to one side, pinch the eye in the opposite direction until it tracks straight. Trolled or back-trolled, the Xtreme is built to dive deeper and to stay on course across a broad speed range.

From the manufacturer

Kwikfish Xtreme represents an evolution from the original Kwikfish, with precision-tuned body parts and advanced manufacturing techniques. The result is deeper diving and true running across speeds that previous designs couldn’t consistently achieve. This model offers trout, salmon, steelhead, and walleye anglers a versatile, wide-action lure that adapts to varied conditions.

Color and visibility

The Fluorescent Red Fire finish provides high visibility in dim light or stained water, helping the lure catch the eye of cruising targets and trigger strikes during successive retrieves.

Real-world use cases

Picture early-morning choppy water along a steelhead river, or a heavy-current salmon run where depth is key. The Kwikfish Xtreme’s deep-diving design helps reach productive zones without extra gear. Its robust construction supports repeated casts and long days on the water, while the scent-free profile keeps the lure dependable in varied water conditions.

Why anglers choose Luhr Jensen
