About this piece
The Jackall Avy Solid 55S is a solid-body sinking minnow designed for targeting selective mebaru (rockfish) that feed on transparent or small bait such as shirasu, plankton, and mysid shrimp. Its solid construction reduces light refraction compared to hollow-bodied plugs, offering a natural transparency and texture that triggers strikes from wary fish. The no-sinker design enables an ultra-slow fall and retrieve, making it effective in pressured waters.
Key features
- Solid body minimizes light diffusion for a more natural appearance.
- No-sinker construction allows extremely slow fall and retrieve speeds.
- Optimized for just-below-surface slow retrieves.
- Slow-fall lift-and-drop action works well in shallow zones.
- Short-distance head-shaking action entices selective fish.
Best for
- Mebaru (rockfish) fishing in shallow, clear water.
- Situations where fish are selectively feeding on small, subtle prey.
- Slow presentations and finesse tactics in pressured areas.
