Why This Pink Colour Works
Pink is a very useful soft bait colour because it stands out well without looking too harsh. It can imitate wounded bait, prawn tones or small baitfish with a brighter trigger colour. The glitter also helps reflect light as the lure rolls and swims. Therefore, this colour is often effective when fish need help spotting the lure or when they are feeding aggressively.
- Pink is easy for fish to notice in lightly stained water.
- It can work well in overcast conditions and low light periods.
- The glitter adds flash during the retrieve.
- The translucent finish still gives it a soft, natural look.
- Pink is often a good choice when natural baitfish colours are being ignored.
When to Use It
- Use it at dawn or dusk when extra visibility can help.
- Use it in slightly coloured or stirred-up water.
- Use it around wash zones where fish react to movement and flash.
- Use it when fish are feeding actively and chasing bait.
- Use it when you want a brighter option than blue, grey or silver soft baits.
Where to Use It in New Zealand
- Harbour channels where current moves food and bait.
- Reef edges where snapper and trevally feed around structure.
- Sandy areas and channel drop-offs where gurnard feed near the bottom.
- Wharves, marinas and estuary mouths where kahawai and john dory hunt.
- Shallow coastal wash zones where fish respond to active lure movement.
- Bays and inshore areas where small baitfish gather on the tide.
How to Use It
- Rig the lure on a suitable jig head or soft bait hook.
- Keep the lure straight on the hook so it swims properly.
- Use the buried hook slot for a neater presentation.
- Cast ahead of the drift, current line or target structure.
- Let it sink to the feeding depth before starting the retrieve.
- Use a slow roll retrieve for mid-water fish.
- Use a lift and drop retrieve for snapper, trevally and gurnard.
- Add pauses, because many bites come as the lure falls.
- Adjust jig head weight to suit water depth, wind and current.
Best Fish to Target
- Snapper: One of the main targets for a 10cm pink soft bait. Fish it around reef edges, channels, sand patches and harbour structure.
- Kahawai: Retrieve it faster through current lines, workups and bait schools.
- Trevally: Use a slower presentation around harbours, shell banks and wharf areas.
- Gurnard: Work it close to the bottom over sand and mud.
- John dory: Use it slowly around structure and bait-holding areas.
- Smaller kingfish: Fish it around bait schools, markers and reef edges.
Recommended Conditions
This pink glitter lure is a practical option for clear to lightly stained water, low light conditions, overcast days and active inshore fishing. It is especially useful when fish are feeding on small bait or when you want a brighter soft bait colour to stand out in the water.
