Load
Load Lures is a proudly Australian brand crafting premium handmade fishing lures since 2011. Every Load lure is built in small batches using the highest-quality materials, purpose-designed to attract and withstand the brutal power of large pelagic predators like bluefin tuna and giant trevally. The brand's philosophy is a perfect blend of art and engineering — each lure is as beautiful as it is effective.
At Compleat Angler Nedlands, we stock the Load Lures range of stickbaits and poppers including the Instigator 200 in both floating and sinking models, the Recluse 165S sinking stickbait, and the full popper lineup featuring the Outlaw 180F, Diving Outlaw 180F, and Geet Seeker 180F. These lures are built for serious offshore anglers chasing trophy fish along the WA coastline.

What Load Lures does Compleat Angler Nedlands stock?
We carry the Instigator 200F and 200S stickbaits, the Recluse 165S sinking stickbait, and three popper models — the Outlaw 180F, Diving Outlaw 180F, and Geet Seeker 180F. All are handmade and ready for serious offshore action.
What is the difference between Load Lures poppers and stickbaits?
Load Lures poppers (Outlaw, Diving Outlaw, Geet Seeker) create surface commotion and splashing to draw strikes from below, while their stickbaits (Instigator, Recluse) offer a subsurface swimming or sinking action. Both styles are highly effective for pelagic species depending on conditions.
