Dusky flathead are an estuary favourite for good reason. They hit hard, can grow to over a metre long and are accessible to both shore-based and boat anglers. They’re also excellent on the plate!
Hand-picked by the Fishing Station team, this bundle combines different lure profiles and actions to help you find what the flathead are feeding on. From shallow flats to deeper channels and drop-offs, you’ll have options to suit a range of conditions.
What’s included
Z-Man StreakZ Curly TailZ
Plenty of action with minimal effort. The large curl tail wriggles as the lure moves through the water, making it a great option for a slow, deliberate retrieve. Use gentle rod lifts to hop it along the bottom, allowing it to sink between movements.
Rapala CrushCity The Suspect
A slim paddle tail that sinks with less resistance than bulkier profiles. Its tail provides the swimming action, so there’s no need to work it aggressively. Try a couple of short hops off the bottom, then pause and let it settle.
Daiwa Bait Junkie 3 Inch Prawn
A convincing prawn profile that’s fast becoming a favourite among flathead anglers. Work it with short hops and pauses along the bottom, just as you would The Suspect. The translucent pink colour offers a subtle presentation for shallow water and clear conditions.
Daiwa Infeet Metal Vibe
Compact, easy to cast and packed with tight vibration. Use it to cover water and explore deeper areas, working it with slow rod lifts before allowing it to sink back down. Keep the lifts controlled—you only need enough movement to feel it vibrate.
Samaki Vibelicious
A soft-bodied alternative to the metal vibe, combining vibration with a flexible, lifelike feel. Work it close to the bottom with gentle lifts and pauses, giving flathead time to find and strike the lure.
Daiwa Bait Junkie Jigheads
Included in 1/8–1/6 oz weights to suit the soft plastics and provide a controlled sink in shallower water. Choose the lightest option that lets you stay in contact with the bottom, and step up in weight when depth, wind or current demands it.
Pack contents and colours provided are based on stock availability. We will however endeavour to pick colours ideal for Flathead fishing.
