A spinning tail propeller is the defining feature of this lure — as the LW550 is retrieved across the surface, the propeller churns the water behind the lure, generating turbulence, splash, and pressure waves that radiate outward and forward of the bait. Predators detect this disturbance through their lateral line well before they can visually locate the lure, drawing fish from a greater radius than a standard pencil or stickbait. The result is a surface presentation with built-in attraction that does not require the angler to work the lure as hard to generate an aggressive surface blow-up. The high-quality ABS hard body is built to handle repeated strikes and the pressure of large, hard-running fish. 8 colour variants. Sold as a single lure.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSpinning tail propeller\u003c\/strong\u003e — the rear propeller blade spins continuously on retrieve, churning the water surface into a trail of bubbles, turbulence, and lateral splash; the disturbance is perceptible to predatory fish through their lateral line from significant distance, drawing fish to investigate before they can see the lure; the propeller also creates surface noise that adds an auditory trigger to the visual and pressure-wave stimulus\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFloating needle profile\u003c\/strong\u003e — the slim, elongated 225mm needle body sits low in the water at rest and creates minimal surface resistance on the retrieve; the low-profile body cuts cleanly through wind and casts well on both spinning and overhead setups; at rest between retrieves the lure floats motionless, allowing it to be paused over structure and schooling fish without sinking out of the strike zone\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e40g – long-range casting weight\u003c\/strong\u003e — at 40g the LW550 loads medium-heavy surface outfits efficiently for distance casting from beach, rock, headland, and boat; the weight is matched to the rod ratings commonly used for inshore and offshore pelagic surface fishing in Australian waters, covering GT, kingfish, trevally, and queenfish in open water and around structure\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHigh-quality ABS hard body\u003c\/strong\u003e — the ABS body construction provides strong impact and tensile resistance that holds up against aggressive surface strikes, repeated hook-ups, and contact with reef, rock, and structure;
