Sickbait
Sickbait by Richter is a Western Australian-designed range of casting lures engineered for serious pelagic fishing. Built with welded, wire-through construction for maximum strength, Sickbait lures feature a rear-weighted design for exceptional casting distance — even into a howling Freo Doctor. The curved belly profile creates an irresistible shimmy on the fall, while large flat sides maximise flash to draw aggressive strikes from predatory species.
At Compleat Angler Nedlands, we stock the Sickbait range including the compact Peanut and the popular Toxic Tails soft plastics in Bony, Garfish, and Pilchard profiles across 120mm and 160mm sizes. These lures are designed right here in WA to target Australian salmon, tailor, kingfish, queenfish, Spanish mackerel, and trevally — the species that make our coastline world-class.
