Target Species & Techniques

The Izalus range covers virtually every fishing scenario. Ultra-light models are perfect for bream, whiting, and trout in estuaries and streams. Mid-range models handle flathead, snapper, and general inshore work. The surf models tackle tailor, salmon, and mulloway from the beach. The Squid Special is purpose-built for squidding with jigs.
