Irukandji Serpentes 632 Death Adder photographed for Irukandji 2026/27 catalogue.

Irukandji quote- The pocket rocket of the range. The Death Adder is designed for close quarters combat, when casting accuracy is rewarded. While at home pitching rubbers, vibes and smaller swimbaits. This model is primarily designed for fishing jerk baits. The 270mm butt grip won’t cause you grief when twitching lures, yet still long enough to put real hurt on fish when it matters.

The Irukandji range of rods were the first products I photographed with the new Fujifilm GFX 100 II. A new system, a new perspective, and an exciting new era for my photography. Here’s to the next chapter. 📸

DAIWA 26 Emeraldas MX shot for the 26 Daiwa Australia catalogue.

Daiwa quote - Refinement, innovation and performance define the Emeraldas family, and the new EMERALDAS MX elevates the series to deliver an even more refined eging experience for dedicated squid anglers. Purposebuilt for modern squid fishing techniques, EMERALDAS MX combines premium Daiwa technologies with lightweight design to provide exceptional casting performance, sensitivity and lure control.

Constructed from an advanced HVF Nanoplus graphite blank, the EMERALDAS MX delivers a crisp, responsive action with an outstanding power-to-weight ratio. Daiwa’s X45 blank construction minimises twist during casting and lure manipulation, while V-JOINT technology creates a seamless ferrule that maintains the smooth action, strength and sensitivity of a one-piece rod. The result is greater casting accuracy, enhanced jig control and improved bite detection throughout every retrieve.

The EMERALDAS MX’s premium componentry is equally performance-driven, featuring Daiwa’s lightweight AIR SENSOR reel seat for a direct connection between angler and blank, while an integrated carbon butt further enhances balance and reduces overall weight for effortless all-day fishing. Premium Fuji guides complete the package, delivering smooth line flow, outstanding corrosion resistance and longterm reliability in harsh saltwater environments.

Designed specifically for Australian squid anglers, the EMERALDAS MX offers the refinement, responsiveness and confidence needed to fish today’s egi with absolute precision, whether casting from the shore, rock walls or boat.

Daiwa x Madotachi SHIFTER 140F for the 2026/27 Daiwa Australia catalogue.

Daiwa Australia quote - The Daiwa x Madotachi SHIFTER 140F Collaboration is a premium joint development that combines Daiwa engineering with Madotachi’s innovative lure design to create an incredibly versatile swimbait for Australian conditions. Featuring Madotachi’s unique Wing System, the lure has the ability to be tuned to meet the conditions.

This adaptability makes it equally effective in estuaries, impoundments and inshore saltwater environments.

Built with premium components throughout, the Daiwa x Madotachi SHIFTER 140F is equipped with ultra-strong BKK trebles for maximum strength and hook-up security when targeting Australia’s hardest-fighting predators.

Daiwa STEEZ Merrinity Swimmer for the 2026/27 Daiwa Australia catalogue.

Daiwa Australia quote - Developed for anglers chasing trophy predators, the STEEZ Merrinity Swimmer is perfectly suited to Australia’s native species. Its three-jointed body delivers a natural swimming action that entices even wary fish, whether slow-rolled through timber, worked over rock bars or paused beside structure.

A steady retrieve produces a lifelike swimming action, while subtle rod twitches create an erratic wounded baitfish movement. The responsive soft tail continues to pulse on the pause, often triggering aggressive strikes from following cod. The circuit-board lip provides excellent stability and helps the lure deflect cleanly through heavy cover.

Featuring SaqSas Swivel Hook Eyes for improved hook retention during violent head shakes, the 187mm, 53g Merrinity Swimmer is an ideal imitation of bony bream, carp, redfin and juvenile cod—making it a premium swimbait for anglers targeting Australia’s iconic freshwater predator.

Nomad Design BUFFALO JR. MICRO JIG photographed for the Nomad Design Tackle 2026 catalogue.

The BUFFALO JR. is the next evolution of Nomad’s proven Buffalo jig platform, bringing the highly effective Flash Fall design into a compact light tackle micro jig. Retaining the original Buffalo’s centre-weighted balance, exaggerated flutter sink action, long hang time and flash fall attraction, it is specifically engineered for shallow water applications where slower sink rates and finesse presentations are essential.
Designed as a light tackle flash fall jig, the Buffalo Jr delivers maximum visual attraction and extended strike-zone exposure, making it ideal for estuary jigging, shallow reef fishing, light offshore applications, finesse casting, vertical jigging, and targeting pressured fish. It combines the proven fish-catching DNA of the original Buffalo with a versatile, compact profile suited to modern light tackle fishing.
Available from 5g to 20g, it brings serious Buffalo action to finesse tackle.

DAIWA 26 Saltist Hyper S72 - 2/3 shot for the 26 Daiwa Australia catalogue.

Daiwa quote - The Saltist Hyper series receives its first major revamp in many years to present Aussie saltwater anglers with their most advanced and expansive Saltist Hyper range to date.

Continuing the tradition of delivering anglers the perfect balance between value and performance the 2026 Saltist Hyper series takes a step forward, leveraging many of Daiwa’s advancements in rod technology to elevate the range to a new level of design and performance.

HVF Nanoplus and X45 blank technologies are the foundation of the new range, with the combination resulting in a blank that is light and sensitivity yet able to handle the stresses and loads of saltwater fishing while never compromising performance.

Blank performance and strength are further enhanced with the 2-piece models in the range featuring Daiwa’s V-Joint technology. V-Joint features a bias wrap construction within the ferrule to eliminate weakness and flat spots in the joint. The result is a two-piece rod that’s as strong and acts just like a one-piece.

The new Saltist Hyper range welcomes Complete Control Grips to the line-up, with its unique ‘angler focused’ grip and hold design enhancing the angler’s grip comfort and control. The foregrip features a uniquely shaped trigger that allows the angler’s finger to rest perfectly on the trigger when locked into a fight

With nearly 20 models in the range and a diverse range of tapers designed for a variety of Australian species, techniques, and styles of fishing the 26 Saltist Hyper series is a line-up designed to perform and built to last.

Whether its throwing stickbaits for tuna or reef species over shallow coral flats or throwing a timber hardbody off the break walls of the northern rivers for mulloway, there’s a 26 Saltist Hyper for almost every conceivable mission.
