The water depths of my usual fishing locations are very shallow.
An average water-depth range is 30cm to 70cm deep.
There is no steep-sided bank of a creek in my usual fishing locations.
Therefore, I use a lot of super shallow diving minnow typed lures in my fishing.
Lures made in Australia are normally designed for the boat fishing people.
There is a great demand for those lures in the market.
Those lures will touch the bottom of the sea easily in my usual fishing locations.
It will become a cause of catching bottom.
It will become a cause of snagging in fishing.

I'm making sure to buy lures for me from local fishing tackle shops as much as possible
I usually use a quick clip with my lures because I want to use a large variety of lure.
I try to use more than ten kinds of lures every time.
I don't treat any lure specially.
However, good reeling feeling can be obtained with these above lures in my fishing locations.
I'd like Australian lure makers to produce more super-shallow-diving-jerkbait lures please.
This is nothing more than what I think.

Thank you very much.
