The 5" Snapbacks work well and last longer than some of the others around.

Re: Best Snapper Soft Plastics ?
actually I have tried the 5" snapbacks and haven't had a touch on them. Not a squire, tailor, or pike. For mine, the zoom superfluke and salt water assassins in 5" watermelon colour with a 3/0H 1/8 oz jighead is the go. This seems to work well in up to 10 m of water unless the current is really pushing.
Of course, once you start having some success on a particular plastic, the others tend to get left behind, so that may explain some of my bias here.

Re: Best Snapper Soft Plastics ?
4" power baits ...watermelon or pearl blue depending on the light or 5" super flukes - baby bass works a treat .
Jig heads , i usually stay around 1/16 in light current shallow water ...1/12 with a slight current , water to 8 metres....if moving in medium water bit more current - 1/6 , if deep water or lot of current - 1/4
As for jig style , i like the darts
