The benefits of using swimbaits

Never used swimbait or wakebait before? There are a few key benefits you might be missing out on, like:

  • Attractive to predatory fish: Swimbaits are designed to offer realistic swimming action, making them very attractive to predatory fish species like Murray Cod, Barramundi, Mulloway and XL Flathead. These fish are naturally drawn to the movement of prey in the water, and swimbaits can effectively trigger their predatory instincts.
  • Versatile: Swimbaits come in a wide range of sizes, colours, and shapes, making them adaptable to various fishing environments. Anglers can experiment with different colours and styles to find what works best in different conditions.
  • Can be fished at different depths: Swimbaits can be fished at different depths in the water column, making them a great option for targeting fish holding at various light penetration levels. Some swimbaits are designed to sink quickly to deeper depths, while others are designed to be retrieved slowly near the surface.
  • Durable: Many swimbaits are made from durable materials, such as soft plastic or hard plastic, making them resistant to teeth damage and sharp objects in the water. Swimbait lures often have a hard body with soft plastic details to mimic the appearance of baitfish. Their tough plastic bodies help them last longer than natural baits and allow them to be used for multiple fishing trips.

Fishing with swimbait vs natural bait

Fishing with swimbaits and natural baits each has its own advantages and disadvantages, depending on the type of fish you're targeting and the conditions you're fishing in.

Anglers often use swimbaits when targeting larger predatory fish like Murray cod, BIG barramundi, XL flathead, Mulloway [jewfish] and even kingfish.

Live bait can sometimes be more attractive to fish over an artificial lure, particularly in freshwater environments, as it smells and tastes like something the fish are used to eating. However, natural bait can also be more difficult to work with than swimbaits, as it requires refrigeration, preparation and can be messy.

Ultimately, the choice between swimbaits and live bait comes down to personal preference, the type of fish you're targeting, and your fishing conditions. But if you want the challenge and thrill of hooking and landing an oversize fish, targeting the species above with swim/glide/wakebaits then Hot Tackle is the one stop for your needs.
