About this piece
The Halcyon System Raven Deep S is a specialized sinking minnow plug designed for vertical jerk-and-fall presentations targeting mebaru (black rockfish). Its deep-diving lip and free-fall action allow it to quickly reach deeper zones while maintaining a subtle wobble on the tension fall, triggering bites from pressured fish.
Key features
- Sinking type with free-fall action for rapid depth penetration
- Deep lip design stabilizes the lure in wind and transmits water resistance to the rod
- Single tail hook for reduced snagging and better hook-up ratio
- Slow-sinking version also available for finesse presentations
Best for
- Vertical jerk-and-fall fishing for mebaru (black rockfish)
- Pressured or high-pressure fishing areas where horizontal presentations fail
- Windy conditions where line control is challenging
- Deep water or structure-oriented fishing
