MMD Splash Prawn 120mm Lure

A big-profile surface prawn built to draw explosive strikes from trophy flathead, trevally and mangrove jack when you need maximum splash and presence.

The MMD Splash Prawn 120mm is the heavy-hitting, full-size topwater option in the Splash Prawn family — designed for anglers who want a larger bait profile, longer casting range, and a louder surface disturbance to call fish up from distance.

Designed in Australia to imitate a prawn skipping across the surface, the Splash Prawn’s signature tail creates a pronounced splash while the slim body keeps the lure looking natural and easy to eat. The 120mm size excels when bigger predators are hunting prawns in shallow water, around pontoons, rock walls, mangrove edges and flats — especially in low light, dirty water or windy conditions where smaller surface lures can get lost.

It’s incredibly easy to fish: crank it steadily, work it with twitch-and-pause, or pop it to create sharp surface commotion that triggers reaction bites. Whether you’re targeting whiting on surface, hunting big flathead on the flats, or trying to tempt aggressive mangrove jack out of cover, the 120mm Splash Prawn is built to get noticed — and get eaten.

Fitted with two Mustad chemically sharpened trebles, it’s ready to fish straight out of the pack with reliable hook penetration and strong hold during surface blow-ups.

Frequently Asked Questions

What species is the MMD Splash Prawn 120mm best for?
It’s ideal for bigger surface feeders like flathead, trevally, mangrove jack and queenfish, while still being deadly on whiting and bream when they’re chasing larger prawns.

Is the 120mm Splash Prawn too big for estuary fishing?
Not at all. The slim profile keeps it very natural, and the 20g weight helps you cover water quickly — perfect for prospecting flats, edges and structure.

How do I retrieve the MMD Splash Prawn 120mm?
A steady crank works well, but twitch-and-pause or pop-and-stop is often best when fish are following. Use sharper pops in windy or dirty conditions to help fish locate the lure.

When should I choose the 120mm over the 95mm?
Choose the 120mm when you need longer casts, louder splash, or you’re specifically targeting larger fish and want a bigger surface meal to trigger aggressive strikes.
