Issei Bibibi Chu 1.8 #18 Pearl White

The Issei Bibibi Chu is a unique insect-inspired soft bait designed by Haruhiko Murakami, evolving the concept of a 'bug' into a 'mushi' (creature). Its hollow-molded body provides excellent buoyancy and casting distance, while the 3D curved ribs, legs, and antennae create an alluring, water-stirring action. This lure is engineered for walk-the-dog and splashing surface presentations that mimic a struggling aquatic nymph.

Key features

• Hollow-molded body for superior flotation and improved hook-setting performance.
• 3D curved ribs and supple material create complex light refractions and water disturbance.
• Three pairs of legs and antenna-like tails undulate enticingly with any water current.
• Dedicated drain hole allows for easy water removal to maintain consistent action.
• Includes a flotation insert to customize buoyancy if the body wears over time.

Best for

• Topwater bass fishing with walk-the-dog or splashing retrieves.
• Imitating dragonfly nymphs and other aquatic insects in ponds and lakes.
• Targeting pressured bass in clear water where a subtle, unique profile excels.
