Geecrack Gyro Star is a soft shad lure with a distinctive flattened body and inverted triangular cross-section. This design helps the lure maintain a stable position during the retrieve while allowing the body to produce a noticeable side-to-side rolling action.
The body is covered with slightly angled ribs that increase its interaction with the water. An oval tail connected by a thin tail section responds easily to water movement, allowing the lure to remain active even during slower retrieves.
Gyro Star is made from Geecrack's proprietary S.A.F. material, combining salt, amino acids and flavour. This formula adds scent and taste stimulation while retaining the soft structure of the lure.
Gyro Star can be rigged on a conventional jig head, Texas rig or weightless setup, and can also be used as a trailer on a jig. A groove along the upper section of the body helps position the hook correctly.
Its combination of stable body movement and an active tail makes Gyro Star suitable for both steady retrieves and presentations with pauses, drops or short lifts. The different sizes in the series make it easy to match the lure profile to the rig and presentation.
Geecrack is a Japanese fishing brand based in Gifu, specialising in the design and development of fishing lures and tackle. Soft lures form an important part of the range, with distinctive body shapes, pronounced ribbing and actions designed for both conventional retrieves and modern finesse techniques.
One of Geecrack's most recognisable features is its original S.A.F. material. The name stands for Salt, Amino Acid and Flavor, combining salt, amino acids and scent. This material is used across many of the brand's soft lure ranges and adds an extra taste and scent stimulus to the lure's physical action.
Among the most distinctive models are the heavily ribbed Bellows Gill and Bellows Stick, shad-style lures such as Gyro Star, Iron Shad, Jack Master and Revival Shad, as well as smaller finesse lures including Portio Shad, Portio Curly, Moon Curly and Dumbbell Worm. Each design differs in body profile, tail action and behaviour on the fall, allowing anglers to match the lure to a particular presentation.
Depending on the model, Geecrack soft lures can be fished on jig heads or rigs such as drop shot, Texas Rig, Free Rig, Carolina Rig and Neko Rig. The range includes both compact lures for subtle presentations and larger, bulkier designs suited to stronger actions or use as jig trailers.
Geecrack also develops lures for saltwater fishing. Ranges such as PIKUPIKU Pintail and Tairaba Super Curly use designs suited to light saltwater techniques and tai-raba fishing while retaining the brand's characteristic approach to soft-lure action and scented materials.
The wide choice of shapes, sizes and actions makes Geecrack lures suitable for many spinning and casting techniques, from slow fishing on light rigs and controlled fall presentations to bottom fishing and use as trailers on different types of jigs.
