About this piece
The Daiwa Morethan Switch Hitter DH59S is a heavy sinking pencil designed for extreme distance casting, even into headwinds and crosswinds. Its 'distance first' concept delivers jig-class casting performance, reaching boils and tide rips that would be beyond the range of conventional minnows. This lure efficiently covers surface and shallow zones of large rivers, surf, tidal flats, rocky shores, and river mouths, day or night.
