About this piece
The Daiwa Gekkabijin Fuka 55F is a saltwater floating plug designed for shore-based light lure fishing, particularly targeting mebaru (rockfish). Featuring a magnetic重心移動 (weight transfer) system, it achieves stable casting distance and transitions immediately into action upon landing, with a deliberately unstable wobble that triggers strikes from wary fish.
Key features
- Magnetic weight transfer system for enhanced casting distance
- Weight settles in the center of the body for immediate action on landing
- Slow retrieve produces an erratic, breaking action to trigger neutral fish
- 55mm length, 2.9g weight, floating type with #12 hooks front and rear
- Designed for shallow water under 1 meter depth
Best for
- Shore-based saltwater light lure fishing for mebaru (rockfish)
- Fishing shallow flats and very shallow zones (under 1 m)
- Clear water conditions where subtle action is key
