Pinky Fishing Trace

Our handcrafted Pinky Fishing Traces leverage the Pinky fish (Pomadasys olivaceus) as either live or cut bait to entice larger predatory fish.

Benefits of Using our Pinky Fishing Leacer / Trace:

• Live Bait Effectiveness: Pinkies are exceptional live bait for large game fish such as Kob, Garrick, Shad, Springer, Snapper, and Rockcod. Our Trace's light line and small sharp hook allows the pinky to swim naturally, attracting predators.
• Species Versatility: Besides larger predators, dead pinkies are great for catching smaller fish like Blacktail, Karanteen, and Lesser Sandsharks.
• Natural Attraction: Pinkies are a common food source in South African estuaries and coastal waters, making them highly appealing to local fish. Our light trace ensures a natural presentation that attracts cautious fish.
• Easy Accessibility: Abundant and easily caught in areas like rocks, bridges, jetties, and prawn banks , pinkies provide fresh bait, crucial for a successful fishing trip.
• Durable Bait: The firm flesh of the pinky is resilient and less likely to be stolen by smaller fish. They offer an edge over softer baits like sardines.

Bag and Size Limits:

• Bag Limit: 10 pinkies per person per day
• Minimum Size Limit: 7.5 cm
• Cumulative Bag Limit: There is an overall limit of 10 fish per person per day, regardless of species, unless the limit for a specific species is higher or it's a baitfish with no limit.
