Description
Easily one of the top lures on the market right now (and Jackson's most popular lure worldwide), the Jackson Artist FR Lure is an allrounder bibbed sinking minnow with an action that entices an incredibly wide range of species both inshore and offshore, and a range of sizes and weights that allow you to target so many species. The 'FR' in the name stands for 'fast retrieve', as the lures were originally designed for high-speed retrieves when chasing fast-moving pelagic fish off the boat or from the rocks/shoreline. However, the Jackson Artist FR Lure is a fish catching machine in lakes, rivers, and estuaries for most typically found Australian species, especially the two smaller Artist FR sizes.

Jackson Artist FR105 Lure - 105mm
This size has proved most effective on faster-moving pelagic species like salmon, tailor, kingfish, small tuna etc with a faster retrieve through the water, although you'll still catch some solid flathead on these too. A simple cast and retrieve action works well with this size, and you can throw in a few sweeping pulls here and there to change things up. The bib keeps it underwater while you retrieve and it has a really nice, tight wobble, so if you do need to slow down your retrieve you can do so without hindering the lure's action.
