Malosi - Rogue 105S
About this lure
The Malosi Rogue 105S is engineered to deliver heavy-tackle performance in a compact profile, making it a lethal option for New Zealand's reef and pelagic species. Built with a unique hybrid construction that encases a solid Paulownia wood core within a tough ABS-like resin shell, this lure offers the silence and natural buoyancy of wood with the durability of plastic.
Designed for long-distance casting, the Rogue 105S punches through strong headwinds to reach busting schools of Kingfish, Tuna, and Kahawai. Its sinking action features a seductive shimmy on the fall, making it equally effective for targeting trophy Snapper holding over shallow weed beds and reef structures.

How to work it
The Rogue 105S is a sinking stickbait designed to work surface-to-mid-water zones with a seductive flutter on the drop.
Cast it to busting schools or structure, then work it with sharp twitches interspersed with pauses to let it sink and shimmy - this falling action mimics a dying baitfish and triggers strikes from reef and pelagic species.
Its weight-forward design cuts through headwinds for long-distance casts to distant marks. Pair it with heavy-duty saltwater tackle rated for strong drag pressure; the through-wire construction handles aggressive takes from trophy fish over shallow reefs and weed beds.
