About this piece
The Daiwa Gekkabijin Yunagi 40F Tadayoi is a small pencil bait designed for saltwater light game, particularly targeting mebaru (rockfish). Its horizontal floating type allows natural presentation on the surface, ideal for drifting with the current or stationary "leave-it" methods. The bait features a high-pitched rattle from steel balls in the head and a glass ball in the center for added attraction.
