About this piece
The Dstyle Mimi King is an 8.8-inch soft plastic worm developed by professional angler Daisuke Aoki, designed as an evolution of the classic 'forbidden worm' concept. Its unique elastomer material and textured, bumpy body create a lifelike undulating action in the water, with a buoyancy that allows it to hover just below the surface when paired with a light nail weight.
Key features
- Elastomer Duravity material delivers a uniquely soft, lively action not found in standard worms
- Textured bumpy body surface creates complex water vibration and realistic movement
- Tapered tip section easily accepts nail weights from 0.2g to 0.4g for precise buoyancy control
- Salt-infused body allows subtle sinking and avoids an unnatural upright posture when fishing deeper
- Center indicator bump on the body helps anglers locate the hook placement point
- Versatile rigging options: wacky, Neko, drop-shot, and free rigs
Best for
- Finesse techniques like Neko rig and wacky rig in clear or pressured waters
- Targeting bass in shallow to mid-depth environments
- Use with light nail weights for a near-surface slow fall presentation
