Velvet Arts Forte

Velvet Arts Forte Japanese Trout Spoons – A Champion's Weapon
Discover the pinnacle of trout spoons. The Velvet Arts Forte is the brand's original, legendary model, developed by Yudai Ito — one of the most successful competitors on the modern Japanese "Trout Area" scene. The Forte spoon was designed with a single goal: to maximize the number of strikes in any water condition.
Thanks to its unique body shape, the spoon immediately engages the water, giving the lure a sharp, instant start and intense vibrations that reliably trigger attacks from both freshly stocked and extremely wary or lethargic trout. Choose from a comprehensive range of weights (from 0.6g micro versions to heavier 2.1g variants) and proven color schemes, including the legendary KOTF (Kick on the Festa) color.

The key strengths of Velvet Arts Forte spoons are their incredible versatility and stable action. The deep, cupped body design maintains consistent resistance in the water, providing the angler with perfect feedback through the rod. You need not worry about losing track of the lure's behavior beneath the surface — contact remains constant even during ultra-slow retrieves.

Yudai Ito considered every detail during the design process. The spoon's weight is clearly stamped into the metal on the top of the body. This ensures the weight remains perfectly visible even beneath thick layers of pearlescent, UV, or glow-in-the-dark finishes—so you never make a mistake, even when rapidly switching lures under competitive pressure.

Each color variant was designed for specific conditions — ranging from aggressive colors for early starts and fresh fish stocks to natural, muted tones and "pellet" colors for times when the fish are under intense angling pressure. Add Velvet Arts Forte spoons to your tackle box and gain a competitive edge at any trout fishery.
