Atomic Hardz Shiner Double Deep – 75mm & 85mm Deep Diving Hard Body Fishing Lure

The Atomic Hardz Shiner Double Deep is a versatile, deep-diving hard body fishing lure available in 75mm and 85mm sizes, designed to target some of Australia's most popular estuary and inshore species, including flathead, barramundi, jewfish, mangrove jack and mackerel.

Featuring a distinctive wobble and roll swimming action, the Shiner Double Deep imitates a swimming baitfish, attracting the attention of predatory fish holding along deep banks, submerged timber, rocky structure and river channels.

Its floating design allows the lure to rise when paused, making it particularly useful when fishing around snags and underwater obstacles. The angled diving bib helps the lure descend quickly and can assist in deflecting it away from suitable structure.

Why Choose the Atomic Hardz Shiner Double Deep?

Deep Diving Performance

The Shiner Double Deep is designed to reach fish holding deeper in the water column.

Its diving bib helps the lure descend into areas where predatory fish are often found, including submerged timber, deep banks, drop-offs and river channels.

Enticing Wobble & Roll Action

Both the 75mm and 85mm variants produce a distinctive wobble and roll action that imitates a swimming baitfish.

A steady retrieve brings the lure to life, while pauses and changes in speed can trigger strikes from following fish.

Floating Design for Fishing Around Structure

One of the Shiner Double Deep's key advantages is its floating construction.

When the retrieve is paused, the lure rises in the water column, helping anglers work around submerged timber, rocky bottoms and other underwater obstacles.

Two Sizes for Different Fishing Conditions

Having both 75mm and 85mm options allows anglers to select a lure based on baitfish size, target species and fishing conditions.

The 75mm offers a more compact presentation, while the 85mm provides a larger profile for targeting bigger predatory fish.

Casting & Trolling Versatility

Although primarily designed for casting, the Shiner Double Deep can also be trolled.

This makes it a useful option for anglers covering water along estuary channels, deeper banks and suitable inshore areas.

Recommended Fishing Locations

• Deep Estuary Banks

• Submerged Timber & Snags

• Rocky Bottoms

• River Channels & Drop-Offs

• Bridge Pylons & Wharves

• Mangrove Edges

• Weed Bed Drop-Offs

• Inshore Structure

• Suitable Trolling Grounds

How to Fish the Atomic Hardz Shiner Double Deep

1. Steady Retrieve

Cast beyond your intended target area and retrieve at a consistent speed.

The lure's wobble and roll action creates an attractive baitfish presentation while allowing it to dive towards its working depth.

2. Stop-Start Retrieve

Retrieve the lure to the desired depth, then briefly pause.

The floating design allows the lure to rise before diving again when retrieval resumes.

This change in movement can be particularly effective when fish are following but not committing to a strike.

3. Fishing Around Structure

Cast alongside submerged timber, rocky banks or other fish-holding structure.

Allow the lure to dive towards the target area, then adjust your retrieve or pause to help it rise over potential snags.

4. Trolling

The Shiner Double Deep can also be trolled through suitable estuary channels and along deeper banks.

Adjust trolling speed and line length to achieve the desired swimming action and depth.

5. Use a Loop Knot

For maximum lure movement, Atomic recommends using a loop knot.

This allows the lure greater freedom to swim and helps maintain its natural wobble and roll action.

Fishing Tips

• Match the Hatch: Choose the 75mm when fish are feeding on smaller baitfish or the 85mm when a larger presentation is preferred.

• Vary Your Retrieve: Experiment with steady winds, short pauses and changes in speed until you find what triggers strikes.

• Target Structure: Focus on submerged timber, rock bars, drop-offs and deeper banks where predatory fish are likely to hold.

• Let It Float: When approaching a snag, pause the retrieve and allow the lure to rise before continuing.

• Try Trolling: Cover water along deeper channels and drop-offs when searching for active fish.

• Adjust Your Line: Line diameter and type can affect lure depth and swimming performance.
