About this lure

The Hayabusa Jack Eye Kick Bottom is a high-appeal inchiku designed specifically for snapper and other bottom-dwelling fish. Built to work effectively on a simple slow wind, it delivers strong visual attraction and subtle movement, making it an excellent option when fish are holding tight to the bottom or refusing more traditional presentations.

High-appeal inchiku design – Ideal for snapper and bottom species with minimal angler input
Simple reel effectiveness – Produces enticing action on a steady wind
Multi-purpose eye system – Allows hooks or blades to be fitted to suit conditions
Alluring big eye – Strong visual trigger that draws attention near the seabed
Snapper-focused performance – Proven when slow jigging or inchiku fishing
Perfect Tairaba alternative – Excellent option when snapper stop responding to Tairaba rigs

Well suited to snapper, koheru and kingfish feeding near the bottom, the Jack Eye Kick Bottom is a reliable choice for tough days when you need extra attraction without overworking the lure.

How to work it

The Jack Eye Kick Bottom is a sinking inchiku designed to work the bottom in 30m+ depths with minimal effort. Deploy it on a simple slow, steady wind-the lure's design generates enticing action without aggressive jigging. This approach suits snapper, kingfish, gurnard, and trevally holding tight to the seabed. The weight range (80-150 g) allows you to match bottom conditions and drift speed; heavier options help maintain contact in strong current or deeper water, while lighter weights suit slower drifts or shallower bottom marks. The multi-purpose eye system lets you add hooks or blades to boost attraction on tough days. Work it methodically over rough ground and structure where bottom feeders congregate.
