The Tiemco Red Pepper is an iconic Japanese floating stickbait, introduced by Yuji Minami in 1980. A fixture in catalogs for several decades, it has become a staple of surface fishing and an authentic "classic" of Japanese know-how. Designed for action on the surface and just below the water film, the Red Pepper is particularly effective for targeting fish with little or moderate activity, as well as highly educated specimens.
Its swimming action is completely erratic, ideal for attracting the attention of fish looking for discreet predation opportunities. The Red Pepper comes to life with quick, dry pulls, typical of stickbaits, and is accompanied by prolonged pauses when fish activity is low. This technique allows you to vary the intensity and maintain the interest of predators even in periods of low activity.
Featuring the superb "Japan" finish typical of Tiemco, this stickbait combines performance and aesthetics, for world-renowned effectiveness.
