How to work it
Cast the Atomic Real Baitz Herring around estuary structure, drop-offs and current lines where mulloway, barra and flathead hunt.
Retrieve with a steady, moderate pace to activate the large paddle tail's wide wobble and tight body roll-this combination mimics natural herring movement and triggers predatory strikes.
The lure works effectively through mid-water and over flats, making it versatile across depth zones. Work it along weed edges, rocky outcrops and deeper channels where ambush feeders hold.
The pre-rigged, swim-straight design means you can fish it straight from the packet with standard estuary tackle-pair it with a 2000-3000 spin reel and 10-15 lb braid for responsive contact and solid hook-ups.
