About this piece
The Apia CHINUPARA DODGE is a specialized jig-style hard lure redesigned in 2014 for targeting black sea bream (kurodai). Its unique resin-over-lead construction creates an ultra-low center of gravity that reduces snagging on bottom structure, while the self-righting system keeps the hook point facing upward for improved hook-up rates.
