About this piece
The Daiwa Morethan Switch Hitter DH-76S is a heavy sinking pencil designed for maximum casting distance, even in headwinds, crosswinds, or strong gusts. Developed under the supervision of Masaru Onuma, this "home run hitter" concept lure flies like a jig, putting distant boils and tide rips within reach that would be inaccessible to minnows. It rises quickly near the surface, making it effective in shallow areas of large rivers, surf, tidal flats, and river mouths both day and night.
