About this piece
The Daiwa Gekkabijin Sword Beam is a 2.2-inch soft plastic worm designed for targeting large mebaru (rockfish). Its vertically flat body, inherited from the 1.7-inch version, offers excellent straight-line swimming and sharp darting actions. The slightly firm material enhances the contrast between stillness and motion, making it effective for finicky fish.
Key features
- Vertically flat body for stable swimming and sharp darts.
- Slightly firm material creates distinct action contrast.

- Straight retrieve minimizes unnecessary movement for nervous fish.
Best for
- Targeting large mebaru (rockfish) in coastal waters.
