Malosi Marksman Metal Spinning Lure 40g

The Malosi Marksman 40g delivers serious casting range without excessive weight, giving Australian anglers a versatile metal lure for salmon, mackerel, trevally and other hard-fighting inshore predators.

The Malosi Marksman Metal Spinning Lure 40g is a midweight casting metal designed for anglers who need distance, versatility and a substantial baitfish presentation. At 93mm and 40g, it is well suited to reaching deep surf gutters, offshore bait schools and nearshore ledges, while also providing an effective option for jetty spinning and boat-based casting.

Constructed from zinc alloy with a stated tensile strength of 92kg, the Marksman 40g is built for demanding saltwater lure fishing. It comes fitted with a BKK #2 6066-5X treble hook and can be worked with fast burn-and-pause retrieves or vertically jigged, making it a practical metal lure when salmon, mackerel, trevally and other predators are feeding at different depths.

Expert Advice

The 40g Marksman sits in a useful middle ground when you need more casting range than a light metal without stepping up to a much heavier offshore lure. For salmon, mackerel and trevally feeding on bait, cast beyond the activity and burn the lure back through the strike zone, adding pauses to change the presentation. From jetties, ledges or a boat, let the lure sink before retrieving when fish are holding deeper, or work it vertically where appropriate. Match your spinning rod to the 40g lure weight and choose braid and leader according to the target species, structure and fishing conditions.
