About this product

The Hayabusa Gold Flasher Limited Edition Sabiki (EX128) is widely considered the "Gold Standard" of bait collection in New Zealand, specifically engineered for challenging light and water conditions. Featuring high-carbon Japanese steel hooks and a triple-layer gold construction—gold fish skin, gold flasher, and aurora finish—this rig mimics the natural sheen of small crustaceans and baitfish like Jack Mackerel and Koheru. It is an essential tool for Kiwi anglers needing to quickly fill live bait tanks in the murky waters of the Hauraki Gulf or during low-light dawn raids.

  • Triple Gold Attraction – Combines gold fish skin, flasher, and aurora finish to reflect light in stained or deep water where standard silver rigs disappear.
  • High-Carbon Steel Hooks – Chemically sharpened Japanese hooks ensure instant penetration on hard-mouthed baitfish like Trevally and large Mackerel.
  • Real Fish Skin – Processed mackerel skin adds a lifelike texture and scent retention that triggers predatory strikes from wary schooling fish.
  • Fluorocarbon Branch Lines – Stiff, invisible leader material reduces tangles and improves presentation in clear water (select models).
  • Versatile NZ Targeting – Proven effectively on Jack Mackerel, Koheru, Kahawai, and even table species like Tarakihi and Blue Cod on larger hook sizes.
