Suckerme Crystal Curse Softbait Lure – Versatile Fishing for NZ Waters
The Suckerme Crystal Curse is designed to replicate the movement and appearance of a natural baitfish, making it a highly effective lure for catching trout, kahawai, snapper, trevally, gurnard, and cod in New Zealand waters. With a transparent body infused with glitter, it enhances visibility in different water conditions, while its curly tail delivers a lifelike swimming action that attracts predatory fish.
