Recommended Target Species
The Irukandji Sicario 275mm is particularly suited to targeting large Australian predatory fish, including:
-
Barramundi: Ideal for targeting trophy fish around deep snags, rock bars, impoundment structure and river channels.
-
Mulloway: A substantial baitfish presentation for large fish holding around deep estuary holes, bridges and coastal structure.
-
Large Reef Predators: Suitable for species that regularly feed on larger baitfish, when rigged appropriately.

Oversized 11-Inch Baitfish Profile
The Sicario 275mm is designed for anglers seeking a larger lure presentation.
Its substantial body profile imitates large baitfish and provides an option for targeting fish that may be less interested in smaller soft plastics.
The larger silhouette is particularly useful when predators are feeding on substantial baitfish or when anglers want to target bigger fish.
Signature Sicario Swimming Action
The Sicario range is recognised for its distinctive paddle-tail action and natural body roll.
The oversized paddle tail creates movement during retrieval, while the flexible body allows the lure to swim with a realistic baitfish action.
Anglers can adjust retrieve speed and rigging weight to suit water depth, current and fish behaviour.
Immortal TPE – Exceptional Durability
The Irukandji Sicario 275mm features the brand's specialised Immortal TPE elastomer construction.
This highly flexible material is designed to resist tearing and damage from repeated strikes while maintaining the lure's natural swimming movement.
Its durability makes it particularly useful for anglers targeting powerful fish with demanding tackle requirements.
Important: Immortal TPE lures must be stored separately from conventional PVC soft plastics, as the materials may react when stored together.
Custom Rigging Versatility
The Sicario 275mm can be rigged to suit different fishing applications using appropriately sized heavy-duty terminal tackle.
Depending on the fishing conditions, anglers may select:
-
Heavy-duty jigheads for deeper water and stronger currents.
-
Suitable weighted swimbait hooks for controlled swimming presentations.
-
Appropriate additional hook systems where required.
-
Heavy-duty leader and terminal tackle matched to the target species.
Correct rigging is essential to achieve the desired swimming action and maintain a secure hook connection when targeting large fish.
Recommended Fishing Techniques
Slow Rolling: Retrieve the lure at a controlled speed to activate its paddle tail and body roll.
Deep-Water Casting: Use suitable weighted rigging to reach deeper channels, rock bars and submerged structure.
Structure Fishing: Present the lure around suitable fish-holding areas, allowing enough clearance to minimise snagging.
Open-Water Fishing: Work the lure through areas where large predators are feeding on substantial baitfish.
Controlled Retrieves: Adjust retrieval speed to maintain a natural swimming action appropriate to the selected rigging.
