If fish are feeding on prawns, a standard round jig head looks wrong straight away. Prawno Jig Heads solve that with a metal prawn-shaped head that matches the hatch and gives your soft plastics a natural, bite-ready profile.
It's the only prawn-shaped jig head on the market, built to look like the real thing, with an integrated stinger assist attachment on every size — a custom SnapBait design — and finished with BKK hooks, so when the bite comes you can set hard and trust the hook-up.
Whether you're skipping structure, hopping the bottom or slow rolling edges, Prawno presents a plastic cleaner, makes it look more believable, and gets it eaten with confidence.

Best for
- Prawn-style soft plastics
- Fussy fish in clear water
- When you need a natural profile that gets bites and holds fish pinned
Colours
Chartreuse and Pink are the high-visibility options for stirred-up water and low light. Orange suits mid-clarity water. White Glow charges under a torch and works in deeper water and early starts.
Common questions
What makes it better than a normal jig head?
The prawn-shaped head creates a realistic prawn profile rather than a round ball of lead, which often gets more bites when fish are keyed in on prawns. It also carries an integrated stinger assist attachment, so you can add a stinger for short-striking fish.
Is the jig head metal or plastic?
The head is metal. The prawn shape is moulded into the head itself. It's sold as a bare jig head — you rig your own soft plastic onto the hook.
Do all sizes have the stinger assist attachment?
Yes. Every size in the range is built the same way — only the weight and hook gauge change.
Are the hooks strong?
Yes — Prawno comes fitted with BKK hooks for dependable strength and sharp hook penetration.
What plastics work best on it?
Prawn and shrimp profiles are the natural match, but it fishes any soft plastic. The prawn-shaped head does the imitating, so a plain paddle-tail on a Prawno still reads as a prawn to a fish.
