Smith AR-S Chubbing Model - is pre-ordered and will ship as soon as it is in stock.
Condition:
Brand New. May include items displayed in stores.
Features:
The standard chubbing lure, the AR-S, now with a purpose-built hook.
The AR-S had already become a staple in the world of chubbing. Smith staff who are themselves deep into chubbing tried all kinds of lures and kept coming back to the same conclusion: the AR-S is simply the most fun, and it catches. What they added this time are finishes based on the insects you find right around you, plus a dedicated chubbing hook co-developed with Owner Hooks fitted as standard.
The hook body is hammered so its flash draws the chub in, and the dressing is tied in red to suggest a bloodworm and trigger a reaction. A loop eye lets it be attached with a split ring.
The AR-S blade itself starts turning the moment the lure lands and keeps rotating reliably even in pushy current. A slight raised lip along the blade edge improves rotation and start-up. It also responds to rod work during the retrieve for a left-right slide on a twitch, and the rolling swivel shaft, the low centre of gravity teardrop body and the clearance between body and shaft all work to reduce line twist.
Two weights: 1.5g and 2.0g. Five insect colours. Released May 2026.
