About this piece
The Daiwa Gekkabijin Tsuyukaze 50SS-LI is a slow-sinking pencil bait designed for targeting large mebaru (rockfish) in offshore areas. Featuring a Laser Impact model for enhanced visibility, this compact 50mm lure packs maximum weight for superior casting performance. Its 2-way action changes from a high-pitch roll with body flashing at slow retrieves to a wobbling roll at higher speeds, while a shimmy fall motion triggers strikes during descent.
