HERU Bobara Lures

Heru Bobara – High-Performance Surface Stickbait

Made in Indonesia.

The Heru Bobara is one of Heru’s most iconic surface stickbaits, known for its explosive topwater action, long-distance casting ability, and proven performance on tuna, GT, kingfish, amberjack, and other powerful pelagic predators. Each Bobara is hand-shaped, hand-painted, and tuned individually, giving it the lively, unpredictable swimming action that Heru lures are famous for.

The Bobara series is designed to create a strong surface presence with a wide, sliding S‑swim and a sharp dart when twitched. This action mimics a fleeing baitfish and triggers aggressive strikes even when fish are pressured or feeding selectively. Its balanced body and internal weight system allow anglers to cast far, work the lure easily, and maintain stability in rough water.

Concept & Target Species The Bobara is built for topwater big‑game casting and excels when targeting tuna, GT, kingfish, amberjack, mahi, and other fast-moving pelagics. Its tuned surface action makes it ideal when fish are feeding aggressively or when a lure needs to stand out in chop or swell.

Action & Performance The lure produces a strong splash on entry, followed by a wide, sliding surface swim with a controlled roll. When twitched, it darts sharply, imitating a panicked baitfish. This combination of slide + dart is what makes the Bobara deadly on pelagics that respond to erratic movement.
