BKK Harpax Inshore Jigheads

A heavy-duty saltwater jighead built for anglers throwing soft plastics at powerful Australian species including snapper, coral trout, GT, barramundi, mangrove jack and black jewfish.

The BKK Harpax Inshore Jigheads are designed for demanding inshore and saltwater soft plastic fishing where hook strength, penetration and secure plastic retention matter. Tested in Australian waters by the BKK pro team, the Harpax Inshore combines a short-shank 2X-wire heavy-duty hook with a corrosion-resistant Bright-Tin coating and sharp straight point.

A split-design bait keeper provides extra grip on a wide variety of soft plastics, including very soft 10X materials, helping keep the plastic positioned when casting hard or working the lure aggressively. A utility eyelet underneath the jighead adds further versatility, allowing anglers to fit a teaser blade, additional treble hook or stinger, while also providing another anchoring point for compatible soft plastics.

Expert Advice

Choose your Harpax Inshore jighead weight to suit water depth, current, wind and the size of soft plastic you are fishing, aiming for enough weight to maintain contact without unnecessarily overpowering the presentation. Push the plastic onto the hook straight and secure it firmly against the split bait keeper; a crooked plastic can affect its swimming action. When targeting hard-fighting fish around reef, rock or other structure, match your braid and leader to the terrain and expected fish size. The lower eyelet is also useful when you want to add extra attraction with a teaser blade or adapt the rig with a stinger.
