Why We Imported This
At Second Strike Tackle we hand-pick proven Japanese lures that excel in Australian conditions. The Maria Big Backer has built an outstanding reputation among Japanese shore anglers for its casting distance, durability and ability to tempt powerful pelagic fish. These qualities translate perfectly to WA's beaches, reefs and rocky headlands.

Second Strike Notes
The Rainbow Sardine colour excels when baitfish are present. Cast long across reef edges or into surface bust-ups, then retrieve with sharp sweeps of the rod to make the lure dart erratically. Particularly effective on Spanish mackerel, tuna, kingfish and queenfish around WA's offshore reefs and rock platforms.
