Clear Baitfish Look for Fast Strikes

The Suckerme Crystal Curse is built for anglers who need a natural looking softbait for kahawai, snapper and trevally. This kahawai softbait lure combines a clear glitter body with a lively curly tail, so it looks like a small baitfish in New Zealand harbours, estuaries and along the coast.

Key Features

  • 8.5 cm body length for matching small baitfish schools.
  • 8.5 gram weight for light spinning and softbait setups.
  • Clear ghost body with glitter for a natural flash in clear or slightly coloured water.
  • Curly tail creates movement on slow retrieves, twitches and lift and drop presentations.
  • Useful from wharves, harbour edges, estuary mouths and light inshore structure.
  • Well suited to murrays bay wharf fishing when kahawai are chasing bait around the pilings and current lines.
  • Also suits cornwallis wharf fishing where moving harbour water and bait schools can bring kahawai, trevally and snapper within casting range.
