About this piece
The Ecogear Kijihata Grub is a soft-plastic lure designed specifically for targeting rockfish like the Kijihata (redspotted grouper) from shore. It combines a bulky hog-style body with a thick, ribbed grub tail to produce strong vibrations even at small sizes, while maintaining stability on heavy Texas rigs up to 30g. The joint between body and tail is offset and narrowed to reduce air resistance during casting and minimize rolling on the fall, improving both distance and bottom contact. Infused with Ecogear's signature scent and flavor, this versatile lure works well with jigheads for swimming or Texas rigs for bottom bumping.
