Michigan Stinger Slasher - Rotating Flasher

The Stinger Slasher is the newest addition to the Michigan Stinger product line. The stainless steel SLASHER will rotate through all the necessary speed ranges pulling flies, squids or cut bait. These rotating flashers are tunable for varying conditions and their compact size create less drag and easy pulling.

One word of caution, however, the Slasher is fished differently than other rotating flashers that you may be presently using. The main point to keep in mind is that the further you drop the Slasher behind your downrigger the larger the diameter of the circle it will make. For instance, on a 10 foot lead the diameter of the circle the Slasher makes will be approximately 24 inches. (This would be the case with most other brands.) On a 50 foot lead, however, the diameter of the circle the Slasher makes might be 15 feet! If this is your deepest downrigger set, this would be an asset but if you don't keep in mind the circle that the Slasher is making down there and try to run a clean spoon below it or alongside it, you can see what the results would be. Basically, if you run it on a lead core or deep rigger you can let it do it's thing if you want, but if you want to run it back 50 feet alongside other baits, simply attach about an 8oz. drop sinker, bead chain sinker, or snap weight 8 to 10 feet ahead of the Slasher. This will keep it rotating in approximately a 24 inch diameter circle regardless of how far back you want to run it, and prevent any tangles.

The Stinger Slasher rotates about 50% faster than most other flashers creating a completely different presentation of your baits. It can be used with any squid, fly, cut bait rig and yes even spoons! Each Slasher comes with instructions on the inside of the header card for ease of use. Available in all the hottest new colors including our new silver glow finish. Check them out today!
