Malosi Crusader 180M

Malosi Lures was born from a passion shared by two brothers who combined their love of fishing, art and adventure to design lures that are as effective in the water as they are beautiful in the hand. What began with handcrafted prototypes made in a spare bedroom has evolved into a brand driven by meticulous design, performance and a commitment to quality.

The Malosi Crusader is a premium sinking cranking lure designed for anglers who want explosive subsurface action with every retrieve. Engineered with a balanced weight distribution and sleek profile, the Crusader excels when worked hard or fast — darting, diving and thumping through the strike zone to trigger aggressive responses from saltwater predators.

Crafted with a solid Paulownia core, encased in a tough resin shell and reinforced with 2 mm stainless steel through-wire, Malosi delivers exceptional durability and strength for battling powerful saltwater predators.

Whether you’re fishing wind-blown flats, coastal edges or open water bluewater, the Crusader’s tight side-to-side action and controlled sink make it ideal for targeting GT, kingfish, tuna, trevally and more. Its robust build gives you confidence in harsh saltwater conditions and heavy fish fights.
