The Shimano HD Orca Flash Boost Injured Sardine brings an advanced offshore presentation to large pelagic anglers, delivering powerful casting performance through its JET BOOST internal weight system. Its oversized body and hydrodynamic design create a deep diving sweep followed by a natural return to the surface, imitating injured baitfish with remarkable realism. FLASH BOOST technology suspends reflective foil inside the lure, producing continuous flash, even on the pause, to trigger visual strikes from predators below. Built for extreme saltwater durability, the HD Orca Flash Boost excels when targeting tuna, GT, kingfish, amberjack and other hard-charging species. When fish are keyed in on large forage, this lure serves as a high-confidence big-bait option.
