Daiwa Bait Junkie 5" JerkShad Pilchard Glow

The Daiwa Bait Junkie Jerkshad 5” is a versatile soft bait that packs big fish appeal into a compact profile. With its slender body, forked tail, and subtle darting action, this lure mimics a fleeing baitfish to trigger aggressive strikes from snapper, kingfish, kahawai, and even freshwater predators like trout.

Constructed from Daiwa’s Elastomax material, the 5” Jerkshad in Pilchard Glow combines durability with realistic movement. It stays buoyant, flexible, and keeps kicking even after repeated bites, giving you more casts and more hook-ups. Perfect for rigging on jigheads, drop shot rigs, or as a trailer, it adapts to a wide range of fishing styles and conditions.

Whether you’re chasing inshore favourites or mixing it up offshore, the Daiwa Bait Junkie Jerkshad 5” is a proven performer every angler should have in their soft bait arsenal.
