Issei Gill Flat Swimmer #11 Blue Gill / Bass Lure Swim Bait by Haruhiko Murakami

The Issei Gill Flat Swimmer is a realistic bluegill imitation swimbait designed by Haruhiko Murakami. Its multi-joint body and hollow construction produce a swimming action with a subtle S-curve and lingering motion that closely mimics a live baitfish. The lure is crafted to be fished on heavy bass tackle without a specialized rod, offering both durability and hook-setting efficiency.

Key features

• Multi-joint body creates a lifelike S-curve and natural swimming action.
• Hollow body construction provides buoyancy and can be tuned for custom action.
• Internal fiber reinforcement (PAT.P) increases durability without sacrificing flexibility.
• Compact 145mm/58g size is manageable on H-class bass rods.
• Enhanced hook-setting performance due to hollow body design.

Best for

• Targeting largemouth bass in clear water where realistic bluegill patterns excel.
• Slow-rolling over weed beds, around docks, or along drop-offs.
• Anglers seeking a high-performance soft swimbait for trophy bass.
• Freshwater bass fishing with heavy cover tactics.
