RUI KR117 Three Line Grunt Squid Jig | Baitfish Pattern Eging Lure | Buy Australia
The KR117 is named after the Three Line Grunt — a small reef fish found throughout the Indo-Pacific whose distinctive three-stripe lateral pattern is one of the most recognised prey silhouettes for hunting calamari. RUI has faithfully recreated this profile: a dark charcoal-black back, a flash of metallic bronze-gold across the sides, and a vivid fluorescent green belly, all anchored by three bold white lateral stripes that run the full length of the body. It's a jig that tells a story — and squid believe it.
Tactical Performance
-
Three White Lateral Stripes: The defining feature of the KR117 — three high-contrast white stripes replicate the exact lateral banding of the Three Line Grunt baitfish. This specific pattern is a proven feeding trigger for calamari that hunt reef-dwelling baitfish along Victoria's rocky coastlines and Port Phillip Bay drop-offs.
-
Fluorescent Green Belly: The vivid chartreuse-green ventral surface provides strong upward visibility for squid attacking from below — particularly effective in clear water and during daylight sessions when light penetration is high.
-
Dark Charcoal Back: The near-black dorsal surface creates a natural counter-shading profile — dark from above, bright from below — matching the exact light absorption pattern of a real baitfish in open water.
-
Metallic Bronze-Gold Flanks: Transitional metallic colouring between back and belly catches lateral light with every dart, adding a lifelike shimmer that complements the three-stripe pattern on the fall.
-
Diamond-Mesh Reflective Weave: Fine reflective mesh across the entire body amplifies flash from all angles — keeping the KR117 visible and dynamic through its full sink depth.
