Blades & Vibes Fishing Lures

Blades & Vibes for Freshwater and Saltwater Fishing

Blades and vibes are highly effective sinking lures designed to cover water quickly and trigger reaction bites from predatory fish. Their tight vibration, compact profile and ability to fish a range of depths make them a favourite among Australian anglers targeting bream, bass, flathead, yellowbelly, Murray cod, snapper and estuary species.

Whether you're fishing rivers, lakes, impoundments, estuaries or coastal waterways, blades and vibes excel when fish are holding deep, feeding on bait schools or responding to aggressive presentations. Available in metal, hard body and soft vibration styles, these versatile lures can be cast, hopped, slow rolled or vertically jigged to suit changing conditions.

How To Choose

Choose smaller blades and vibes from 35–60mm for bream, bass and estuary fishing, while larger profiles are better suited to flathead, cod, yellowbelly and snapper. Heavier models sink faster and are ideal for deeper water, stronger currents and vertical presentations.

Natural baitfish colours work well in clear water, while brighter and UV-enhanced patterns can improve visibility in dirty water or low-light conditions. Consider the vibration intensity and sink rate based on the species and environment you're fishing.
