Not all lures are built equal - and when you’re chasing serious predators offshore or off the rocks, you need hard baits that can handle it. Our range of minnows, diving plugs and pencils aren’t just tough; they’re designed for distance, stability and the sort of swim action that turns lookers into biters.
Every Cavy saltwater hard bait is made with durable ABS bodies, fitted out with heavy-duty split rings and razor-sharp BKK hooks, and tuned to cast a mile. They swim straight even in current and chop, giving you confidence when you’re working reef edges, wash zones, or trolling bluewater.
For GT fishing, long-casting minnows are deadly. They punch out into the zone, dive and track perfectly, and trigger those bone-crunching hits GTs are famous for. Tuna love a fast-moving minnow too, smashing them at speed when other lures get ignored. Kingfish, mackerel and coral trout also can’t resist the tight wobble and flash of a properly tuned plug.
Hard baits aren’t just offshore tools either. Inshore, they shine on snapper, jacks and other reef species - especially when fish are pressured and fussy. Floating models are perfect for shallow reef flats or wash zones, while sinking minnows and diving plugs get you down to where the predators are waiting.
Yes, there are plenty of cheap plastic lures on the shelves. But the difference with Cavy hard baits is in the testing. Adam Cavanagh personally puts every model through its paces in real tropical waters - from rocky headlands to open reef systems - and only the designs that prove themselves make it into the lineup.
That’s why anglers worldwide trust Cavy hard baits: long casts, true swim, durability under pressure, and the sort of bite-triggering action that keeps you hooked up when it counts.
