Retrieving with a reel creates an S-shaped path; rod jerks cause the lure to veer off to the sides. By increasing the pace, you keep it closer to the surface so you can visually track the fish’s pursuit.
The all-stainless-steel frame is designed for this powerful application. Maintain sufficient tension between pulls to re-engage the fish when it strikes. The Iwashi and Navy Tobiuo finishes vary the contrast while maintaining the same weight and swimming action.
