About this piece
The Daiwa Shoreline Shiner-Z Set Upper 145S-DR is a long-casting, slow-sinking diver minnow purpose-built for targeting sea bass from shore, especially in tough mid-layer and near-foot scenarios. Designed under the supervision of Masaya Konuma, this lure combines exceptional castability with a high-pitch tight wobbling roll action that triggers bites even from sluggish fish.
Key features
- Slow-sinking design with maximum diving depth of approximately 2 m
- Equipped with Silent Weight Oscillate System Z and HGS (Hold Gravity System) for stable flight and consistent swim
- Aero Lip reduces air drag for casting up to 92 m, then grabs water for precise diving
- #3 treble hook system (3 hooks) for secure hookups on tentative bites
- Tungsten weight wire oscillates to the rear during cast, then locks forward for controlled mid-layer and rough-water swimming
Best for
- Shore-based saltwater sea bass (suzuki) fishing
- Mid-layer and near-structure retrieves from piers, rocks, and surf
- Slow to medium steady retrieves when fish are inactive or finicky
- Windy or rough-water conditions requiring stable lure swim posture
