yeah mate they are pretty good, they now come in 3 sizes,3.5 is my favourite. there is a 2 inch(i think) that would be deadly on the bream aswell. the red colour is the one to go for the flatties. the 5 inch one are a little too big though.
Is anyone using Zerek Live Shrimp for estuary species. If so, what size/colour have you had success with.
I'm thinking of giving the 3.5 inch/7 gram ones a go in the dark red colour.
Cheers,
Peter

Thanks mate. I'll give the red ones a go.
Why are they called live shrimp if they're made of plastic?
They should be known as Zerek plastic shrimp.
False advertising saying they're live?
When I read the title I thought someone has nutted out how to transport live shrimps.
I intend on living for-ever....so far so good
The guy who invented them name is Zerek Live(pronounced leeve)
so i guess the is no false advertising there!!

Called 'Live Shrimp' mainly for the action.I've seen one in a swiming pool and they are quite realistic when hoped across the bottom.
I have a couple but have not caught anything on them yet.
They are OK though I think the hook is a bit large in the bigger ones, it looks like a beefed up 7/0 weighted monster Gamakatsu, kind of thing you would use only on huge Jacks or Barra or something..
Dan.
I use the bigger size for flatties as i get a more accurate cast. No problem hooking up barely legal size. They are very good for barra. Colour doesn't seem to matter as its all in the slow twitchy retrieve.

I can't believe this........
Quick someone call Riply's believe it or not.
so who sells them in the Brisbane area?
Bcf do mate there 3 for $25 atm.
Have caught fish on most colours in all sizes. The new little 2 inch one will be a cracker for most estuary targets! Mates have been doing really well on the reef fish with the larger size- just re-rigging with a heavier jig head or tying a loop knot with a ball sinker on the loop. Sweeties love em! Very versatile range of lures!
