Soft Plastics Daiwa BaitJunkie 5 Inch Jerkshad Soft Plastic

• The BaitJunkie 5” Jerkshad comes with 5 pieces per pack.

• JERKSHAD 5”/124mm

One of the more difficult bait styles from which to stand out from the crowd. The BaitJunkie Jerkshads’ exhibit some of the most incredible swimming action ever witnessed from a ‘fluke’ style bait. 

The BaitJunkie ‘slim waist’ design principle is in full flight in the 5” Jerkshad, with the prominent waist section segmenting the bait into two separate parts. The vertical fluke tail exaggerates the action and the hinge-like effect of the body makes the tail section of the BaitJunkie 5” Jerkshad swim like no other. A belly slit enables weedless rigging with an EWG style weighted hook and is the rigging method of choice when you want to keep the bait up high in the water column. 

Once again, the colour range is extensive, with 15 colours incorporating both UV & Glow there is sure to be a colour which catches your eye!

ELASTOMAX MATERIAL – INCREDIBLE STRETCH & DURABILITY
All BaitJunkie baits are made from Daiwa’s Elastomax mate- rial. A stretchy, durable & buoyant material, Elastomax allows for thinner designs without sacrificing strength, which results in significantly improved swimming action at slow speeds.

FLOATING MATERIAL
The bouyant nature of Elastomax also means baits will rest ‘tail- up’ when rigged on traditional jigheads. This gets the tail up off the bottom and into the current, meaning BaitJunkie baits swim even when you’re not retrieving them.

AMINO X – NATURAL FLAVOUR & SCENT
A natural based flavour & scent which masks any unnatural plastic odours or smells. The addition of AMINO-X means when fish bite, they hold on longer, giving anglers more time to react and ultimately more fish in the boat.

BaitJunkie is the culmination of years of collaboration between Daiwa engineers from Japan and local Australian R&D teams. Developed specifically for Australian conditions, BaitJunkie is the furthest evolution of soft bait design, incorporating innovative material science with unique and functional 2D and 3D designs to release a full range of soft plastics that are just as effective as they are exciting.

BaitJunkie baits & packs are also loaded with Shrimp Power-Oil, a powerful shrimp-based formula to make sure that the moment your lure hits the water it’s working.

It’s the small details that set BaitJunkie apart from the competition. When BaitJunkie baits are made, the mould was designed in such a way so the baits can be perfectly cut from the mould, making the fronts of each bait perfectly flat with no injection markings. This makes rigging BaitJunkie baits incredibly easy as they perfect match to any jighead on the market. Speaking of rigging, All BaitJunkie baits have rigging lines to ensure you rig them straight and true everytime. Even the packaging has been carefully planned, and includes a ‘clam’ style internal tray, meaning bent & kinked baits will be a thing of the past.
