Daiwa Bait Junkie 3 Inch Wave Minnow Soft Plastic Lure

Daiwa Bait Junkie 3″ Wave Minnow Soft Plastic Lure

The Daiwa Bait Junkie 3″ Wave Minnow is purpose-built for finesse fishing when fish are shut down or feeding cautiously. Featuring a unique ‘Wave’ shaped tail, this soft plastic activates with the slightest movement — perfect for slow retrieves or passive fishing styles.

The tail’s upward flick is designed to catch water flow as the lure is retrieved, prying the tail open to deliver a natural, fluttering curl-tail action that estuary predators like bream, flathead, and trevally can’t resist. The long, slender body profile mimics a range of common estuary prey — including shrimp, prawns, worms, and small baitfish — offering high versatility in any situation.

Constructed from Daiwa’s Elastomax material, the lure is not only incredibly durable and stretchy, but also buoyant. This means the tail sits up off the bottom, giving it a natural posture and movement — and in current, the lure continues working for you even when stationary.
