About this piece
The FISH LABO Riverch Slim 2.2 inch is a handmade soft-plastic lure designed for saltwater game like small to giant horse mackerel (aji) and rockfish (mebaru). Its two-tone hardness construction provides a firm head for better hook hold, while the softer body and tail deliver natural action.
Key features

- Deep continuous ribs generate water resistance and feedback to the angler's hand
- Soft, pliable material allows the lure to bend easily during fish inhalation
- Versatile rigging: jighead (0.4–1.5g recommended), Carolina rig, split-shot rig, or float rig
Best for
- Saltwater shore fishing targeting aji, mebaru, and other coastal species
