Moorhen Lures: Innovation for a sustainable future.

Moorhen Lures' lead-free options redefine modern angling.

  • Enhanced Sensitivity: Experience every subtle bite with materials that transmit vibrations more efficiently.
  • Wildlife Safe: Protect waterfowl and marine life from the harmful effects of lead poisoning, often a silent killer in many ecosystems.

Nature's return: Our lures leave no trace.

Our commitment to sustainable angling extends to our truly biodegradable lure lineup. Crafted from innovative, plant-based polymers and natural aggregates, these lures are designed to perform exceptionally in water and then safely decompose, returning to nature without residual microplastics or toxins. Independent laboratory tests confirm complete breakdown within 6-12 months under natural conditions.

  • Eco-Conscious Composition: Made from sustainable, renewable resources, minimizing environmental footprint from production to decomposition.
  • Rapid Natural Decomposition: Biodegrades into harmless organic compounds, preventing environmental accumulation and protecting aquatic ecosystems.
  • Certified Performance: Rigorous testing ensures durability during use and predictable, safe degradation post-loss.
