Switcher Shrimp – The Only Shrimp That Swims to Survive
It flicks backwards. It glows. It catches.
The Switcher Shrimp is the most lifelike, versatile, and durable shrimp soft plastic ever made. Built from the ground up to imitate a real prawn’s body and movement, it flicks backwards like a shrimp in danger, rolls forward like one cruising across the flats, and can be rigged four different ways without trimming or guesswork.
Whether you’re targeting pressured bream in southern estuaries, flathead in current seams, or barra tight in mangrove drainouts, Switcher delivers a bite-triggering performance few shrimp lures can match. It’s not just another prawn pattern, it swims to survive.
Highlights
Reverse Flick Action: Flicks backwards like a real fleeing shrimp when rigged tail-first—no mods required.
Level, Slow-Roll Balance: Stays perfectly horizontal with lifelike pulse and kick on retrieve.
Rig It Four Ways: Forward, reverse, weedless or jighead - customise to the water, cover, and species.
Built-In ShrimpLock Rigging System: Three slotted hook guides keep jigheads tight and precise - no sliding, no tearing.
Hyper-Realistic Profile: Segmented legs, tail feelers, and optional head inserts mimic the real thing down to the twitch.
Titan-RX TPE Durability: Lasts longer, resists tearing, and holds up in gnarly cover.
UV + Glow Visibility: Reactor glow and UV infusion help fish see and commit in tough light or murky water.
Scented to Seal the Deal: Tracer Scent shrimp blend built right in - extra trigger power when fish are hesitant.
