About this piece
The Fish Labo Shincochan 0.8 inch is an ultra-small soft plastic bait designed for finicky saltwater species like mebaru (rockfish) and aji (horse mackerel). Its tiny body and slow-fall profile mimic small squid or plankton, enticing bites even from fish that only inhale weakly.
Key features
- Ultra-small 0.8 inch body for easy ingestion on light bites
- Wide body with thin 'empela' edges creates a slow, fluttering fall
- Designed to drift naturally without aggressive action
- Recommended for jigheads (0.2-1g), Carolina rig, split shot, or float rig
Best for
- Targeting mebaru, aji, and rockfish in shallow areas
- Dead-slow retrieves with light jigheads (0.2-0.6g) near jetties and shorelines
