About this piece
The Apia Hydro Upper 55S is a mini sinking pencil designed for light game fishing targeting mebaru, black sea bream, and micro-bait pattern sea bass. Its tungsten weight system delivers exceptional casting distance (over 40m with light tackle) and a low center of gravity for stable swimming. The negative-angle lip allows shallow-water retrieval while creating surface ripples that mimic baitfish activity.
