Daiwa Bait Junkie 5" Jerkshad: Servo Squid #97 (NZ Exclusive to Smart Marine)
A fluke-style soft plastic with some of the best swimming action in its class. This NZ exclusive to Smart Marine has the Bait Junkie “slim waist” design and a vertical fluke tail, and can be rigged weedless to stay high in the water column.
Key Features:
NZ Exclusive to Smart Marine: Servo Squid is available in New Zealand only through Smart Marine.
Slim Waist Design: A prominent waist segments the bait into two separate parts. The body acts like a hinge, so the tail section swims like no other fluke-style bait.
Vertical Fluke Tail: Exaggerates the swimming action and gives a lifelike presentation that stands out in a style of bait that is hard to stand out with.
Belly Slit for Weedless Rigging: Rig it on an EWG-style weighted hook for a weedless presentation. This is the method of choice when you want to keep the bait up high in the water column.
Servo Squid Colour (#97): A natural squid-inspired colour from the Bait Junkie UV Reveal range.
Extensive Colour Range: The Jerkshad comes in 21 colours across UV and glow options, so you can match conditions and water clarity.
5 Pieces Per Pack: Enough for a full session on the water.

Why It Works:
Most fluke-style baits look much the same in the water. The Jerkshad’s slim waist splits the body into two sections, so the tail kicks and swims on every twitch of the rod. Rigged weedless on an EWG hook through the belly slit, it stays up in the water column, where a lot of snapper and kahawai are looking for a meal. Servo Squid gives you a natural squid profile in a colour range only Smart Marine stocks in New Zealand.
