The GS03 Grass Whiting precisely replicates the colouration of the Australian Grass Whiting (Sillago robusta) — an iridescent green back with scattered red spots over a lighter green-white belly. The Grass Whiting is one of the most common baitfish in Port Phillip Bay's seagrass flats, and calamari that feed in these environments key onto this exact colour profile year-round.
Grass Whiting Baitfish Match
Iridescent green back with scattered red spots replicates the precise colouration of a juvenile Grass Whiting — the dominant baitfish in Port Phillip Bay's seagrass flat environments.
Internal Rattle
Audible internal rattle extends detection range in the seagrass environments where visual range is limited — triggering strikes from squid that can hear but not yet see the jig.
Green-White Belly Flash
Lighter green-white belly delivers a natural, subtle upward flash — matching the ventral colouration of a live Grass Whiting in its seagrass flat habitat.
Full 4-Size Range
4.0 through 2.5 — complete size range for seagrass flat and open water whiting-zone eging.
