Yowie Posted September 24, 2013 Share Posted September 24, 2013 Anyone use the Zerek prawn lures, are they any good, and are they tough enough to last a few fish (apart from tailor) *** have them at 3 for $25, not that I really need any more lures, and anyway, I mostly still use bait. Thank you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nbdshroom Posted September 24, 2013 Share Posted September 24, 2013 (edited) Haven't used them but from what I heard they slay jacks, barra, flatties and bream. Probably dynamite on bass and ep which love prawns. Imo, great for sport fishing but not a cost effective lure if you are wanting to catch a feed.

pjbink Posted September 24, 2013 Share Posted September 24, 2013 Yes the prawn imitations are deadly in the estuaries, though I don't see the value in the zerecks when you can get a packet of 10 atomic prongs or 5 Z-Man shrimps for the same price.

Yowie Posted September 24, 2013 Author Share Posted September 24, 2013 Thank you for the replies. Probably up-market lures price wise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
arpie Posted September 24, 2013 Share Posted September 24, 2013 (edited) I haven't tried it yet, but will do so soon - I have just sliced into the tail of some 'cheapo' SP prawns to get a similar effect & will chuck them round the leases here in Forster soon .... you can use permanent markers to add the 'slashes' ....... gotta be cheaper than $25 for 3!!

bharris Posted September 24, 2013 Share Posted September 24, 2013 There strong as mate had one for around a month or two till i dropped a zman in with them they have a kevlar strip in them three for 25 is a good price and the only way to match there horizontal fall in a normal softie is unweighted or a weighted worm hook Sent from my GT-S7500T using Tapatalk 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
