Full product rundown

Practical guidance for storage, rigging and fishing this bait around Perth and wider WA waters.

Freezing and storage

Keep dry product sealed and cool. Premix can be frozen in blocks; thaw before use and mix to a damp (not wet) consistency.

Rigs and jigs

Not fished on a hook — use a burley cage, pot or steady handfuls from the boat. Pair with light bait rigs in the same zone.

Hook and jig sizes

N/A — use with your target species hook size on the bait rod.

Bait prep and handling

Higher oil means faster breakdown — use slightly fewer pellets per session than standard. Store sealed to preserve oil content.

Best conditions

Anchored sessions over reef, gravel or channel edges with moderate current. Most effective when tide is moving.

Where to use in Perth

Reef patches, deeper inshore marks and anchored boat positions across WA where maximum attraction is needed.

Best target species

Herring, Whiting, Skippy, Pink Snapper

How to fish this bait

Use in a burley cage on deeper marks or scatter from the boat. Higher oil content creates a stronger, longer-lasting trail.

Seasonality and local conditions

Year-round; particularly effective on reef marks in autumn–winter when targeting snapper and skippy.
