Sebile September Competition Winners!
First Place: Congratulations to Ryan Wait with his Mackerel on the
Sebile Magic Swimmer 228!
Ryan takes out first place this month & $300 worth of Sebile lures for his effort landing a beautiful spanish mackerel from a yacht during a Whitsunday holiday. Ryan said the Magis swimmer was ideal for slow trolling behind the yacht, but landing the fish from a moving sailboat was a challenge! The magic swimmer is ideal for trolling at slow speeds and worked extremely well on this mackerel. The Magic Swimmer comes in a range of sizes from 82mm to 228mm and are built to give the easiest lifelike action you have ever seen!
Lure Model: Magic Swimmer 228
Lure Colour: Spanish Mackerel (NSM)
Ryan Wait's Report: Sailing the Whitsunday Islands we decided to troll a couple of Sebile Lures and within 10 minutes this 25 KG Spanish Mackerel attacked the 228. Real challenge trying to land this beast whilst under sail.
sebile runner up winner April 2011
Runner up: Gino Chambers hooks up a nice Coral Trout on the Koolie Minnow LL 190 S&S ...
Congrats to Gino for his efforts landing this Coral Trout on the Koolie Minnow LL 190 S&S. Gino was fishing a deep reef and slow trolling to land this great 60cm trout. These deep diving minnows can go to extreme depths at very low speeds & together with the S&S range with reinforced wiring & foam filled, they are extra tough to land the most unforgiving predators. The Koolie Minnow LL S&S comes in a variety of sizes from 136mm up to 240mm! Gino is the winner of a $100 sebile lure prize pack this month
Lure Model: Koolie Minnow LL 190 S&S
Lure Colour: Mackerel Blues (IS16)

Report: Gino Chambers with a 60cm Coral Trout caught on the edge of Roebuck Deeps on the Koolie Minnow LL.Water depth 30m with visibility clear Great fish on a beautiful day out.

Lure of the Month

Can you wind a reel handle?
Then you already know how to fish the Magic Swimmer like a pro - and catch HEAPS of fish

It's called a magic swimmer for a good reason.....The Magic Swimmer's unique and natural action sets this superstar apart from all other lures. All you need to do is be able to turn the handle to catch fish with the Magic Swimmer. There's no fancy twitching, jerking, pro angler secrets or special rodwork required to catch fish on the magic swimmer. This lure is simply one of the easiest and most effective lures ever designed, and there's one designed to catch nearly every species of Aussie fish. The key features of the Magic Swimmer are:-

  1. The Amazing ACTION - you simply need to see this swimming action to believe how good it is. It looks alive!
  2. There's a huge range of sizes from 82mm - 228mm suitable for all Aussie fish
  3. Fast and slow sinking models for every depth range
  4. The fast sinking models swim on the drop, making it even easier to fish. No need to wind, just cast and wait for the bite!
  5. The slow sinking models "hover" and sink vertically to maximise time in the strike zone.
  6. There is also a huge range of colours perfectly suited to Aussie fishing conditions.

The thin baitfish body is jointed in three parts to ripple together in rhythmic swimming motion as artificial imitates perfection to make this impostor appear to be the real thing. Swim the lure slow or fast, at your discretion, as allowed by the Magic Swimmer's perfect balance. Its natural swimming action even during steady retrieves is just too much for most gamefish to resist and is equally effective when cast or trolled by any means. It is available in sizes and models for all gamefish from the biggest to the smallest, in fresh or saltwater.

Our recommendations for Magic Swimmers and Various species are below:

  • Bream, bass, yellowbelly & trout - 82 or 95mm magic swimmer
  • Flathead, barramundi, salmon - 110-125mm magic swimmer
  • Jewfish, snapper, mackerel, kingfish, tuna - 125-190mm magic swimmer

Sebile's Snakey Session
By Kris Sweres (Fishing World)
There's certainly something stirring in the air of late. Warm mornings brew into stinking hot days followed by cracking evening storms. Insects buzz around the vege patch and my hibernating mower isn't the only thing awakening from its winter rest!

Its around this time of year that one of my all time favourite species seem to go nuts.... the Australian Bass.

Armed with a few of Sebile's finest we were keen to have a field test on a mates 'private' river. In a nut shell the day turned into one that you vault away in the memory banks! These lures excelled. Design that has been clearly thought from a fisherman's point of view saw over 50 fish caught and released with many more heart thumping hits, bumps and crashes along the way.

There were genuine first cast hook ups with a whole range of different offerings. The Crankster range (55 Natural Golden Shiner) were stand outs. These plugs cast a preverbial mile and have a rattle tuned to a certain pitch that on the day worked wonders. Having the advantage of the massively long cast means you can cover and get to areas that you otherwise couldn't. I believe they have a large internal bead which aids in this process and the bass seemed to really hone in on it. Casting parallel to snags and slow rolling them back proved to be the retrieve of the day. I still cant get over the wrist jarring strike of a bass! It keeps me coming back every time.






Sebile's Rattsler range was another winner with a completely different action to the Crankster. A wider 'wobble' again proved deadly. I also believe that these lures imitate a wounded river gar perfectly. Something I love in a lure for bassing snaggy country is its 'float' factor. These Sebiles are very buoyant which helps enormously in driving them through and around heavy timber. If you feel a snag stop winding immediately and the lure will hover upwards avoiding the trouble. In a lot of cases it may get smashed during this pause so be ready!

Most of the fish were caught in around 3-6ft of water with a temperature range of around 21 degrees. In the next few months when that creeps up a couple more notches all hell is going to break loose! The bass will be wide awake and out for a feed (as will the damn snakes!) See you out there.

Cheers and happy fishing,
Kris Sweres
