THE Squidgies range of lures have long been a favourite amongst Australian anglers and last year marked the launch of the Squidgies Bio Tough soft plastic range. For the first time, Squidgies has teamed up with Shimano to develop a synthetic bioplastic that is highly durable, stretchy and more environmentally friendly.
The series is manufactured in Japan and has taken Squidgies most reliable lure shapes and redeveloped the design to improve their already great fish catching ability. With the Bio Tough Wriggler (100 mm and 120 mm), Fish (80 mm and 100 mm) and Flick Bait (75 mm and 100 mm) now all featuring in the range, anglers have a range of baits to suit a variety of estuary and freshwater applications.
With six UV enhanced colours in the range, there is a lure to match most conditions and species, whether it be Bloodworm for bream or Pink Glitz for flathead.
Combining UV enhancement with responsive actions, these lures work effectively when twitched through the water column and also at rest in low current conditions. When a fish is caught, the Dura Stretch properties ensure the lure remains in top condition and ready to catch another.
Shimano is committed to reducing its environmental footprint and the Squidgies Bio Tough lures are verified to be 50% biodegradable within the first three years. So, if you happen to snag a lure or get busted off, the environmental impacts are reduced compared to traditional plastic waste.
