The Daiwa Bait Junkie 3 Inch Prawn Lure is designed to perfectly replicate the natural movements of a real prawn, making it one of the most irresistible soft plastics for estuary and inshore fishing across Australia. Prawns are a staple food source for countless predatory fish, and this lure ensures your presentation is as close to the real thing as possible.

Built with a three-segment body design, the Bait Junkie Prawn sinks naturally, allowing the tail to splay and create a lifelike gliding action that tempts fish into striking. Forward-facing legs, adapted from Daiwa’s proven Flick lure design, add subtle shimmy and vibration during the retrieve, enhancing the prawn’s natural quiver in the water.

Whether you’re working the lure with a hopping retrieve to mimic a prawn fleeing off the bottom, or fishing it slowly in tidal flows, the Bait Junkie 3” Prawn is an essential addition to any tackle box. Perfect for chasing bream, flathead, estuary perch, and other estuarine predators, this lure is built tough using Daiwa’s Elastomax material for superior stretch, durability, and buoyancy. Infused with Amino-X scent, it not only looks like the real thing but smells and tastes like it too—giving you the edge when fish are fussy.
