About this piece
The Ima Empathy 120 is an upsized version of the popular Empathy 90, designed to target medium to large baitfish patterns such as inakko and konoshiro. This 120mm sinking minnow offers a variable irregular action on a straight retrieve, automatically shifting between roll, S-curve, wobbling, and zigzag movements depending on water flow. Its slightly deeper diving range (20-80 cm) makes it effective in estuaries, rivers, and rocky shores from early spring to late autumn.
