About this piece
The Smith Gary Yamamoto Fat Ika is a bulk-bodied, high-density soft bait that has become a staple in the bass fishing community. Its self-weight of approximately 12g allows it to be fished effectively weedless with no sinker, even on baitcasting gear, covering shallow cover that spinning tackle couldn't reach. The worm's weight also provides superior casting distance and a fast, aggressive fall rate.
