About this piece
The Yo-Zuri Patapata Q Rattle 3.5 is an aggressive squid jig (egi) engineered with a triple-appeal design combining sound, color, and vibration to eliminate blind spots for autumn squid. Its up-down glow body and slimmer patapata fin create strong attraction from all directions, while an internal shrimp-sound rattle and glow/UV body panels maximize visibility in low-light conditions.
Key features
- Triple-appeal design: sound (shrimp rattle), color (glow/UV/flash), and vibration (patapata fin)
- Up-down glow body produces light from top and bottom for 360-degree flash
- Blue glow body with UV (Keimura) coating for high visibility in murky water
- Patented Patapata Fin Slim generates a fluttering action on both fall and retrieve
- Sink rate: 3.2 sec/m for controlled mid-column presentations
Best for
- Targeting aori-ika (bigfin reef squid) and other coastal squid species
- Autumn eging (squid jigging) in shallow to mid-depth waters
- Low-light conditions; dawn, dusk, and night fishing
