About this piece
The Daiwa Shoreline Shiner Z Set Upper 97S-DR is a mid-sized sinking diver developed under the supervision of Masaya Onuma. It targets wary sea bass in the middle layer with an aggressive yet natural action, suitable for both pier and boat fishing.

- Silent Weight Oscillate System enhances casting distance and range retention.
- HGS (Hold Gravity System) improves stability and deep diving capability.
- Aero Lip folds into the body for reduced air resistance, then grips water for dives up to 1.5m.
- Action transitions from tight wobble on slow retrieve to wide wobble with occasional cross-slide.
Best for
- Targeting pressured sea bass in shallow to mid-depth waters (0.8-1.5m).
- Effective from high piers, rocky shores, and boats.
