Our biggest selling pink snapper and dhufish softplastics is the Abrolhos Tackle 6.5 McPaddles and 7" G-Rubs. We stock them, use them and rate them.

Made from the very stretchy & durable elazytech type material so one softplastic can last you all day.

A few links for more info and some nice captures of Dhufish & Pinks by FW member Milsey;
