About this piece
The Daiwa Gekkabijin Furari 55F is a lip-less minnow lure designed for coastal rockfish (meibaru) fishing. It employs a Gravity Shift Weight System for improved casting distance and accuracy, while its slow-floating, rolling action entices strikes even under high pressure.
Key features
- Lip-less construction paired with a falling-type weight shift system for stable flight and cast precision.
- Slow-floating design rises slowly, allowing pauses in the retrieve to suspend and drift naturally.
- Equipped with two Saksas treble hooks (size #12) for high penetration and solid hook-up on short bites.
- Natural rolling action just below the surface (~15 cm) with a subtle, non-aggressive appeal.
- Covers various saltwater environments: rocky shores, fishing ports, and surf zones.
Best for
- Shore-based saltwater fishing for mebaru (black rockfish) in harbors, rocky areas, and surf.
- Slow retrieves and stop-and-go presentations to trigger reaction strikes.
- Boat fishing for pinpoint casting to surface-feeding fish in shallow flats.
